1.02 INSPECTION/UNPACKING/HANDLING
Electric heaters are shipped inside the Scholar V unit in the lower left side. Use care
when handing the heaters. The heaters are wrapped in brown paper for protection
during transit. Remove the paper before installing the heaters. The heater’s elements
are fragile and can break and the support frames can bend when handled improperly.
Make sure that the heater’s elements are not touching the frame.
1.03 MOUNTING THE ELECTRIC HEATERS
The heaters are installed on top of the heat pump over the supply air blower’s
discharge. Marvair recommends that the plenum be installed prior to installing the
heaters to minimize the chance of damaging the heaters when installing the plenum.
