Chapter 3 Installation
WARNING
Failure to observe and follow Warnings and Cautions and these Instructions could
result in death, bodily injury or property damage. Read this manual and follow its
instructions and adhere to all Cautions and Warnings in the manual and on the
Eubank unit.
3.1 Equipment Inspection
Concealed Damage
Inspect all cartons and packages upon receipt for damage in transit. Remove cartons and check for concealed
damage. Important: Keep the unit upright at all times. Remove access panels and examine component parts.
(Note: The bottom bracket is stored in the condenser air compartment. Remove them before replacing
the side screen). Inspect refrigerant circuit for fractures or breaks. The presence of refrigerant oil usually
indicates a rupture. If damage is apparent, immediately file a claim with the freight carrier.
Units that have been turned on their sides or tops may have concealed damage to compressor motor
mounts, to the oil system or to other components. If the unit is not upright, immediately file a claim for
concealed damages and follow these steps:
1. Set unit upright and allow to stand for 24 hours with primary power turned on.
2. Attempt to start the compressor after 24 hours.
3. If the compressor will not start, makes excessive noise, or will not operate, return the unit to the freight
carrier.
General
1. Inspect unit for completeness. Check for missing parts (e.g. hardware). Refer to the installation kit
information in section 2.3.
2. Remove access panels and check for loose wires. Tighten screw connections.
3. Complete and mail the warranty registration card.
3.2 Installation Requirements
You must consider all of the following when choosing the installation site:
1.
Noise.
Install the unit so that the least amount of noise will be transmitted to inhabited spaces.
2.
Condensate Drainage
. Condensate produced during operation must be discharged to a suitable drain.
3.
Defrost Drainage.
Ice build up sometime occurs during the heating cycle while in heat pump operation.
The automatic reversal (defrost control) of the heat pump cycle causes the ice to melt so that the heat
pump may operate efficiently. Please keep this in mind while locating unit.
4.
Placement.
A) Place the unit in a shaded area, if possible.
B) Install it above ground for protection against flooding.
C) The unit exhausts air. Be sure that the airflow is not impeded by shrubbery or other obstructions.
D) When installing multiple units, please note the recommended clearances noted in Table 4.
