2.0 GENERAL INFORMATION
The (-)ASL-series of condensing units are designed to operate using the
Comfort
Control
2
System™
or traditional 24VAC controls. These units are equipped with the
Comfort Control
2
. Your installation must have these components to use
Comfort
Control
2
System™
:
• (-)ASL condensing unit equipped with the
Comfort Control
2
System™
• An air handler or furnace equipped with the
Comfort Control
2
System™
• A
Comfort Control
2
thermostat
If your installation does not meet the above requirements, you must use traditional
24VAC controls.
This installation instruction manual contains complete instructions for installation
and setup using
Comfort Control
2
or conventional 24VAC controls. Please refer to
the Engineering Specification Sheets for complete performance data, thermostat,
and accessory listings.
The information contained in this manual has been prepared to assist in the proper
installation, operation and maintenance of the air conditioning system. Improper
installation, or installation not made in accordance with these instructions, can
result in unsatisfactory operation and/or dangerous conditions (noise and compo-
nent failure), and can cause the related warranty not to apply.
Read this manual and any instructions packaged with separate equipment required
to make up the system prior to installation. Retain this manual for future reference.
To achieve optimum efficiency and capacity, the indoor cooling coils listed in the
condensing unit specification sheet should be used.
2.1 CHECKING PRODUCT RECEIVED
Upon receiving unit, inspect it for any shipping damage. Claims for damage, either
apparent or concealed, should be filed immediately with the shipping company.
Check condensing unit model number, electrical characteristics and accessories to
determine if they are correct. Check system components (evaporator coil, condens-
ing unit, evaporator blower, etc.) to make sure they are properly matched.
2.2 APPLICATION
Before specifying any air conditioning equipment, a survey of the structure and a
heat gain calculation must be made. A heat gain calculation begins by measuring
all external surfaces and openings that gain heat from the surrounding air and
quantifying that heat gain. A heat gain calculation also calculates the extra heat
load caused by sunlight and by humidity removal.
Air conditioning systems are sized on the cooling load calculation. There are two
capacities that enable the equipment to provide comfort. The first is sensible capacity.
Sensible heat
is the heat energy measured on the dry bulb thermometer as it is
added or removed.
The second form of heat is called
latent
or
hidden heat.
This is heat held in the
humidity in the air.
A properly-sized unit removes both forms of heat, producing a comfortable living
space. An oversized system cycles on and off too quickly and does not properly
remove humidity, producing an uncomfortable living space. Select the indoor and
outdoor equipment combination based on the manufacturer’s engineering data.
After the equipment combination has been selected, satisfying both sensible and
latent conditioning requirements, the system must be properly installed. Only then
can the unit provide the comfort the manufacturer intends.
There are several factors that the installers must consider:
•
Outdoor unit location
•
Proper equipment evacuation
•
System refrigerant charge
•
Indoor unit airflow
•
Indoor unit blower speed
•
Supply and return air duct design and sizing
•
System air balancing
•
Diffuser and return air grille location and sizing
