Installation
Horizontal Unit Ventilator
The horizontal unit ventilator may be
attached directly to the ceiling or sus-
pended from the ceiling by hangers.
Hanger rods should be at least 3/8’’
diameter steel to support unit weight,
as given in
Table 5 .
WARNING
Heavy Objects!
Always lift unit with fork trucks or other
special lifting device following the rec-
ommended procedures. Failure to prop-
erly lift the unit as instructed, could
result in death or serious injury.
Install the hanging devices before hoist-
ing the unit. A fork lift or other special
lifting device is required to hoist the
unit into mounting position.
Protect the unit finish by covering the
lifting platform.
To hoist the unit into place, follow the
instructions below:
1. Secure 2 x 4’s to the lift forks
as shown in Figure 19. These two
supports must be long enough and
spaced properly on the forks to
support the unit while it is being
lifted and clear the duct flanges on
the unit.
2. Tip the unit onto the supports and
slide it toward the lift until the
unit weight balances.
3. Lift the unit. Once in position,
temporarily secure the unit to the
hanger rods or mounting studs with
nuts and washers.
4. Align the unit with the duct work.
When in proper alignment, tighten
the mounting nuts securely.
5. Recheck the unit alignment and
make sure the unit is level.
6. Replace all covers, panels and
filters before starting the unit.
