Viessmann AirflowPLUS AH2A Installation, Operating and Service

Installation

Before Set-up

Recommended minimum service clearances

For typical Viessmann AirflowPLUS installation, it

is recommended to install the air handler with the

clearances shown in the illustration.

Before placing Viessmann AirflowPLUS in its installation

location, ensure all necessary accessories are installed.

Minimum Clearances

CAUTION

The air handler must be installed in such a way that

electrical components are protected from water (spraying,

splashing, etc.) during operation and service.

Horizontal Installation

Vertical Installation

a - 24 in. (610 mm)

b - 12 in. (305 mm)

These dimensions reflect the recommended service

clearance for the air handler only, ensure adequate clearance

is left for the installation of ducting, piping and electrical

connections. Only the b clearance may be reduced providing

there is enough clearance for ductwork, plumbing and

electrical connections, with zero clearance between the air

handler unit and ducting being acceptable.
