cal duct openings with the insulation-side down. The panels
must be inserted into the notches on the basepan to proper

ly seal. The notches are covered by the tape used to secure
the insulation to the basepan and are not easily seen. See
Fig. 7 for position of the notches in the basepan. Seals
around duct openings must be tight. Secure with screws as
shown in Fig. 8. Cover seams with foil duct tape.
Field-supplied flanges should be attached to horizontal duct
openings and all ductwork should be secured to the flanges.
Insulate and weatherproof all external ductwork, joints, and
roof or building openings with counter flashing and mastic in
accordance with applicable codes.
Do not cover or obscure visibility to the unit’s informative
data plate when insulating horizontal ductwork.
