When placed in the Counter flow position, the supply air
delivery is from the bottom of the unit
(Fig. 02)

Fig. 03 - Horizontal installation
Quite often, the best location for the fan coil unit is
suspended from the ceiling of the mechanical room, in the
horizontal position
(Fig. 03)
. This will allow for more floor
space in the room, and will minimize the duct work needed
to connect to the fan coil unit.

Clearances
Clearance is only needed on the access side of the units.
However, ensure that there is a small space between the
unit and any other surface to prevent vibration transfer. In
order to maintain and service the fan coil unit, minimum
clearances are required on the access side
(Table 01)
.
The Hi-Velocity System fan coil is manufactured with
a direct drive permanently lubricated
EPC Motor
that is
mounted within the blower. All HE fan coils are single
side access. The blower assembly can easily be slid out
by removing the three mounted bolts that attach it to the
center plate. In some instances, the electrical box may
need to be removed.
Fan Coil Placement
Location
The fan coil unit is to be placed according to the layout
provided by the designer. As with vent placement, small
deviations can be made in fan coil placement. If the
fan coil has to be moved more than a few feet from
it’s pre-designed location, contact the designer before
proceeding.
When installing the fan coil keep these points in mind.
• Serviceability and access to the unit.
• Maximizing usable floor space.
• Location of heat/cool source to fan coil.
The fan coil can be installed in many different
configurations. The fan coil can be located in a Hi-Boy,
Counter flow, or Horizontal position. In the Hi-Boy
position, the supply air is delivered from the top of the
unit
