II.

ASSEMBLE SUPPLIES NEEDED FOR

INSTALLATION

The standard method of installation for units in manufactured
homes is with accessory base and roof assembly kit.

NOTE:

If installing any other kit, Installation Instructions will be

furnished with kit.

In addition to items included in base and roof assembly kit, the
following items are required to install unit. All sizes listed are
suggested.

Adhesive duct tape, U.L. 181 aluminum or equivalent.

WARNING:

Incorrect type of duct tape may be a fire

hazard. A failure to follow this warning could result in a
fire or explosion, and personal injury or death.

8 No. 10 X 1/2 rust-resistant, self-tapping sheet metal screws
(holding roof flashing).

Permanent sealant such as "mastic."

4 wood screws (base template).

2 No. 8 X 3/4 wood screws (unit to floor). Do not overtighten
and compress seal.

Silicone caulking (roof flashing)

Thermostat cable (18 gage wire minimum).

NOTE:

The number of conductors needed depends on type of

unit and thermostat being installed. Air conditioning units require
4- or 5-conductor wire depending on type of thermostat being
used. (Some thermostats require a C terminal connection for
proper operation.) Heat pump units require 6-conductor wire.

CAUTION:

Do not use thermostat wire with less than

the recommended number of conductors.

CAUTION:

Failure to adhere to indoor air, outdoor air,

and exhaust air requirements as listed in the following
sections will void unit warranty.
