NOTICE

FIRE HAZARD 

Wire Size 

 

Use ONLY wiring size recommended for single outlet branch circuit.

Fuse/Circuit Breaker 

Use ONLY the correct HACR type and size fuse/circuit breaker. Read electrical ratings on unit’s 

 

rating plate. Proper circuit protection is the responsibiity of the homeowner.

Grounding 

 

Unit MUST be grounded from branch circuit through service cord to unit, or through separate  

 

ground wire provided on permanently connected units. Be sure that branch circuit or general   

 

purpose outlet is grounded.

Receptacle 

 

The field supplied outlet must match plug on service cord and be within reach of service cord.

 

 

Do NOT alter the service cord or plug. Do NOT use an extension cord.  Refer to the table above 

 

for proper receptacle and fuse type.

The consumer - through the AHAM Room Air Conditioner Certification Program - can 

be certain that the AHAM Certification Seal accurately states the unit’s cooling and 

heating capacity rating, the amperes and the energy efficiency ratio.
