SECTION IV: INSTALLATION
OVERVIEW
Installation requires the unit to be placed on a roof mounted curb, in a mechanical room or outside on an equipment
housekeeping pad. Isolation pads should be placed under the unit to minimize transmission of noise due to unit
operation. Then pool water is piped to the unit. Electrical power from a properly sized fused disconnect is connected to
the unit. The supply and return air ducts are connected to their respective locations on the unit. The condensate is piped
back to the pool or to the sewer. If an optional remote air-cooled condenser is used, place the condenser in a proper
outdoor location. Refrigerant piping is then run from the air cooled condenser to the PoolPak™ unit. Refrigerant lines
must be leak checked and evacuated through installer provided Schrader valves. Control and power wiring are run to
complete the installation. If a field-furnished auxiliary space heating coil is installed, the control for this heater must be
field-wired to the PoolPak™ controls shown in the field wiring diagram. Refer to
for a typical installation.
HANDLING
Care should be taken during handling to avoid damage to panels, drain piping, etc. The PoolPak™ can be moved into
position using pipe rollers underneath the base of the unit or it can be lifted using a crane or a hoist attached through the
lifting points provided on the unit base frame.
Use suitable spreaders or a frame to prevent damage to the PoolPak™. Cables must be adjusted to length to correct for
the heavier compressor end of the unit.
!
CAUTION
Lifting hooks must be blocked away from the side of the unit to prevent damage to
the door panels while lifting. Do NOT walk on top of the unit or serious damage may
result.
Failure to follow these directions will result in serious damage to the unit.
PoolPak™ will not accept responsibility or
liability for repairing any resulting damage.
RIGGING
PoolPak™ units require the use of a spreader bar that is at least as wide as the unit. Care must be taken to remove all
doors or openings that will interfere with the chains or slings to prevent damage to the unit. In general, two to four
lifting points are provided on each side of the unit, depending on the unit size and length. All provided lifting points
must be used to prevent unit damage. Proper lifting technique for each unit type is provided by a decal on that unit.
CLEARANCE
The clearance for service and repair must be 4 feet on all sides. For less than 4-foot clearances, consult your local
PoolPak™ representative or the factory.Mounting
The PoolPak™ unit is designed for indoor or outdoor locations, either ground-level or roof-top. The location must allow
for free condensate drainage (without freezing), ventilation, supply and return ducts and sufficient clearance for servicing
the unit.
For ground-level installation, precautions should be taken to protect the unit from tampering by or injury to unauthorized
personnel. Safety precautions such as a fenced enclosure or additional locking devices on the panels or doors are
advisable. Check with local authorities for safety regulations. Tables of weight distribution can be found at the
