Pre-Installation
Requirements
Receiving Checklist
Based on customer requirements,
Custom Climate Changer air
handlers can ship as complete units
or as individual sections to be field
assembled.
Upon receipt of the unit(s) and prior
to unloading, remove any shipping
material and inspect the unit for
damage and verify that the shipment
is complete.
Note: Delivery cannot be refused.
Trane is not responsible for shipping
damage.
1 Visually inspect components for
any damage that may have
occurred during shipment.
2 Check all access doors to confirm
that the latches and hinges are
not damaged.
3 Inspect the interior of each
section for any internal damage.
Note: Concealed damage must be
reported within 15 days of receipt.
4 Inspect the coils for damage to
the fin surface and/or coil
connections.
5 If the unit was ordered with
factory-mounted controls, locate
all sensors.
Note: Items that cannot be factory-
mounted should ship inside the
control enclosures or should be
packaged inside the fan module or
mixing box module.
6 Check all devices attached to the
unit exterior and confirm that
they are not damaged.
7 Manually rotate the fan wheel to
ensure free movement of the
shaft, bearings, and drive.
Inspect the fan housing for any
foreign objects.
8 Locate assembly hardware.
9 Inspect and test all piping for
possible shipping damage.
Nipples may be installed on coils
at the factory but should always
be tightened and tested before
any connections are made.
Rough handling during shipping,
in addition to other factors can
cause pipe connections to
become loose.
Note: Trane will not be responsible
for any leak at the field connections.
Coils have been factory pressure
tested before shipping.
Resolving Shipping
Damage
Trane air handlers ship free on board
(FOB), meaning that the unit belongs
to the customer the moment the
delivery truck leaves the factory. If
damage has occurred to the unit
during shipment, follow these
instructions:
Note: Trane is not responsible for
shipping damage.
1 Make specific notation,
describing the damage, on the
freight bill. Take photos of the
damaged material, if possible.
2 Report all claims of shipping
damage to the delivering carrier
immediately and coordinate
carrier inspection, if necessary.
Note: Do not attempt to repair the
unit without consulting the
delivering carrier.
3 Notify your Trane sales
representative of the damage
and arrange for repair.
Note: Do not attempt to repair the
unit without consulting the Trane
sales representative.
4 Keep the damaged material in
the same location as it was
received.
Note: It is the receiver's
responsibility to provide reasonable
evidence that concealed damage
was not incurred after delivery.
Job Site Storage
Recommendations
Custom units and/or field-installed
accessories that must be stored for a
period of time before installation
must be protected from the
elements. A controlled indoor
environment is recommended for
proper storage.
Note: The warranty does not cover
damage to the unit or controls due
to negligence during storage.
CAUTION
Use Canvas Only!
Use only canvas tarps to cover air
handlers. Plastic tarps cause
condensation to form in and on the
equipment, which can result in
corrosion damage or wet storage
stains.
