Receipt
International Environmental Corporation fan coil units
represent a prudent investment offering trouble-free
operation and long service with proper installation,
operation, and regular maintenance.
Your equipment is initially protected under the
manufacturer’s standard warranty; however, this
warranty is provided under the condition that the steps
outlined in this manual for initial inspection, proper
installation, regular periodic maintenance, and everyday
operation of the equipment be followed in detail. This
manual should be fully reviewed in advance before initial
installation, start-up, and any maintenance. Should
any questions arise, please contact your local sales
representative or the factory BEFORE proceeding.
The equipment covered by this manual is available with a
variety of options and accessories. Consult the approved
unit submittals, order acknowledgement, and other
manuals for details on unit options and accessories.
The equipment must always be properly supported.
Temporary supports used during installation or service
must be adequate to hold the equipment securely.
All power must be disconnected before any installation
or service is attempted. More than one power source
may be supplied to a unit. Only a single, standard
thermostat should be supplied power by the unit. Any
other remote mounted device should NOT be powered
by the fan coil unit.
Never wear bulky or loose fitting clothing when working
on any mechanical equipment. Gloves should be worn
for proper protection against heat and other possible
injuries. Safety glasses or goggles should always be
worn when drilling, cutting, or working with chemicals
such as refrigerants or lubricants.
Never pressurize any equipment beyond specified test
pressures. Always pressure test with an inert fluid or
gas such as clear water or dry nitrogen to avoid possible
damage or injury in the event of a leak or component
failure during testing.
Always protect adjacent flammable material when
welding or soldering. Use a suitable heat- shield
material to contain sparks or drops of solder. Have a fire
extinguisher readily available.
The manufacturer assumes no responsibility for personal
injury or property damage resulting from improper or
unsafe practices during the handling, installation, service,
or operation of any equipment.
Unpacking and Inspection
All units are carefully inspected at the factory throughout
the manufacturing process under a strict detailed quality
assurance program, and, where possible, ALL major
components and sub-assemblies are carefully tested for
proper operation and verified for full compliance with
factory standards. Operational testing of some customer-
furnished components such as electronic control valves
and digital controllers may be a possible exception.
Each unit is carefully packaged for shipment to avoid
damage during normal transit and handling. Equipment
should always be stored in a dry place. The deco panel
should also be stored in the proper orientation as marked.
All shipments are made F.O.B. factory and is the
responsibility of the receiving party to inspect the
equipment upon arrival. Any obvious damage to the
contents should be recorded on the bill of lading and a
claim should be filed with the freight carrier.
After determining the condition of the packaging exterior,
carefully inspect packaging for hidden damage. At this
time, check to make sure that “furnished only” items such
as thermostats, grilles etc. are accounted for, whether
packaged separately or shipped at a later date. Any
hidden damage should be recorded and immediately
reported to the carrier and a claim should be filed. In the
event a claim for shipping damage is filed, the unit, and
all packing must be retained for physical inspection by
the freight carrier. All equipment should be stored in the
factory packaging with internal packing in place until
installation.
