MOUNTING (Continued)
WARNING: When unit is installed over a finished ceiling and/ or living area, building codes may require a field
supplied secondary condensate pan to be installed under the entire unit. Some localities may allow the alternative
of running a separate secondary condensate line or applying a field mounted condensate overflow switch.
Consult local codes for additional restrictions.
MISE EN GARDE: Lorsque l'appareil est installé au-dessus d'un plafond fini et / ou d'une pièce (à vivre)
habitable, les codes du bâtiment peuvent exiger l'installation d'une cuvette de condensat secondaire sous toute
l'unité (installation sur place). Certaines localités peuvent permettre l'alternative d’ajouter une ligne de condensat
secondaire séparée ou d'installer un interrupteur de trop-plein de condensat (installation sur place). Consulter
les codes (locaux) régionaux pour les restrictions supplémentaires.
PRE START-UP
Before start-up, all of the components should be given a thorough check. Optimal operation of this equipment
requires cleanliness. Often after installation of this equipment additional construction activities occur. Care must be
taken to protect the equipment from debris during these construction phases. All access panels and filters must be
in place before operation of the units
.
START-UP AND MAINTENANCE
Fan:
The fan should be inspected and cleaned, in conjunction with maintenance of the motor and bearings. It is
important to keep the wheels clean in order to avoid imbalance and vibration.
Motor:
Check motor connections to ensure that they are secure and made in accordance with the wiring diagram.
The blower motor should be cleaned annually.
Filter:
The air filter should be cleaned or replaced every 30 days or more frequently if severe conditions exist.
Always replace the filter with the same type as originally furnished.
Coil:
Any dust or other contaminants which accumulate on the heat transfer surfaces interferes with the air flow
and impairs heat transfer. The coil must be kept clean by any of the following methods:
1. Cleaning with low pressure compressed air.
2. Flushing or rinsing with water (a detergent is advisable for greasy surfaces).
Drain Piping:
The condensate drain lines must be installed with adequate slope away from the unit to assure
positive drainage. Since the drain pain is located on the suction side of the blower, a negative
pressure exists at the drain pan and a minimum trap of 1-1/2 inches must be provided to the drain
line to assure proper drainage. The drain should always be:
1. Connected or piped to an acceptable disposal point sloped away from the unit
2. Checked before summer operation
3. Periodically checked during summer operation
WARNING: The HSS® Air Handler does not come with primary and secondary drain plugs installed.
AVERTISSEMENT: Le système de traitement d'air HSS® n'est pas équipé de bouchons de vidange primaire et
secondaire
PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
To achieve maximum performance and service life of each piece of equipment a formal schedule of regular
maintenance should be established.
It is also recommended to have a service contractor perform a system check in the spring for the cooling season,
and in the fall for heating season.
