INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
Some units are very heavy. Use two or more people when moving and
installing these units. Failure to do so could result in personal injury or
death. Contact with metal edges and corners while applying excessive
force can result in personal injury. Use gloves when handling equipment.
Use caution during installation or while servicing equipment.
Installation of this fan coil should be performed only by a licensed contractor to
ensure proper installation and the safety of the installer. Observe the following
precautions for typical installations:
•
Always use proper tools and equipment.
•
No wiring or other work should be attempted without first ensuring fan coil
is completely disconnected from the power source and locked out. Always
verify that a good permanent, uninterrupted ground connection exists
prior to energizing any power sources.
•
Always review the nameplate and wiring diagram on each unit for proper
voltage and control configurations. This information is determined from the
components and wiring of the unit and may vary from unit to unit.
•
When soldering or brazing to the unit, it is recommended to have a fire
extinguisher readily available. When soldering close to water valves or other
components, heat shields or wet rags are required to prevent damage.
•
When the fan coil unit is in operation components are rotating at high
speeds.
•
Units must be installed level or angled toward the drain nipple to ensure
proper drainage and operation.
•
Check unit prior to operation to ensure that the condensate water will drain
toward the drain connection. An overflow drain or an auxiliary drain pan
under the fan coil may be required as a back up to a clogged primary drain.
•
Be sure that the drain pan is free from foreign material prior to start up.
•
Check filter media installation to ensure that it is installed correctly.
•
Use the directional arrows or other information on the filter to determine
the proper flow direction.
•
Ensure air distribution system does not exceed the external static rating of
the unit.
