When no risers are ordered for the Universal Modular unit, 
it is the responsibility of the installer to make sure that an 
isolation ball valve is installed between each supply and 
return piping connection to the unit. Flare fittings are factory 
provided to allow connection between the ball valves and 
the hoses.

Supply Air Installation

Duct Break

Knockout  Tab

Trim Line

Figure 10

1.  Each side of the unit has one supply air knockout as 

well as a supply air knockout on the top of the unit (see 
Figures 3A and 3B).

2.  Determine which supply air opening/openings are 

required for your application. 

NOTE:

  The supply air opening on the riser side of the unit 

should not be used.

3.  Use a sharp retractable knife to trim insulation using 

center knockout slot/trim line as pattern (see Figure 10).

4.  Use a sharp standard needle nose pliers and grab 

knockout tab (see Figure 10). 

5.  Twist or pry pliers back and forth until knockout tab 

breaks away from unit.

6.  Repeat for all supply air tabs until all have been broken.
7.  Discard center knockout piece. Be careful of sharp edges.
8.  Use a sharp retractable knife to trim any excess 

insulation using knockout hole as pattern.

Duct Flange

Figure 11

9.  Use duct pliers (hand seamers) to fold duct flange out of 

the unit 90˚ for each side of the supply air opening along 
duct break (see Figure 10). The 90˚ flanges can now be 
used as drywall stops to prevent coverage of discharge 
opening (see Figure 11).

10.  Use adhesive or glue to re-attach insulation that has 

pulled away from the unit during knockout removal 
process.

11.  For ducted applications tape should be applied along 

and around all of the supply air opening knockouts to 
prevent air leakage.

All installations should be made in compliance with all 
governing codes and ordinances. 

Compliance with all codes 

is the responsibility of the installing contractor.
