* Some units include a painted drain connection.
Using a threaded pipe or similar device to clear
any excess paint accumulated inside this fitting
may ease final drain line installation.

Horizontal Installation

CAUTION!
Ensure condensate line is pitched toward drain
1/8 inch per ft [11mm per m] of run.
Condensate Piping
- Horizontal Units -
A condensate
drain line must be installed and pitched away for the unit
to allow for proper drainage. This connection must meet
all local plumbing/building codes.
Pitch the unit toward the drain as shown in Figure 2 to
improve the condensate drainage. On small units (less
than 2.5 tons/8.8 kW), ensure that unit pitch does not
cause condensate leaks inside the cabinet.
Install condensate trap at each unit with the top of
the trap positioned below the unit condensate drain
connection as shown in Figure 6. Design the depth of
the trap (water-seal) based upon the amount of ESP
capability of the blower (where 2 inches [51mm] of ESP
capability requires 2 inches [51mm] of trap depth).
As a general rule, 1-1/2 inch [38mm] trap depth is the
minimum.
Each unit must be installed with its own individual trap
and connection to the condensate line (main) or riser.
Provide a means to fl ush or blow out the condensate line.
DO NOT install units with a common trap and/or vent.
Always vent the condensate line when dirt or air
can collect in the line or a long horizontal drain line
is required. Also vent when large units are working
against higher external static pressure than other units
connected to the same condensate main since this may
cause poor drainage for all units on the line.
WHEN A
VENT IS INSTALLED IN THE DRAIN LINE, IT MUST BE
LOCATED AFTER THE TRAP IN THE DIRECTION OF
THE CONDENSATE FLOW.
CAUTION!
Duct System Installation
- Proper duct sizing and design
is critical to the performance of the unit. The duct system
should be designed to allow adequate and even airfl ow
through the unit during operation. Air fl ow through
the unit MUST be at or above the minimum stated
airfl ow for the unit to avoid equipment damage. Duct
systems should be designed for quiet operation. Refer
to Figure 3 for horizontal duct system details or Figure
8 for vertical duct system details. A fl exible connector
is recommended for both discharge and return air duct
connections on metal duct systems to eliminate the
transfer of vibration to the duct system. To maximize
sound attenuation of the unit blower, the supply and
return plenums should include internal fi berglass duct
liner or be constructed from ductboard for the fi rst few
feet. Application of the unit to uninsulated ductwork in an
unconditioned space is not recommended, as the unit’s
performance may be adversely affected.
At least one 90° elbow should be included in the supply
duct to reduce air noise. If air noise or excessive air fl ow
is a problem, the blower speed can be changed. For
airfl ow charts, consult submittal data for the series and
model of the specifi c unit.
If the unit is connected to existing ductwork, a previous
check should have been made to ensure that the
ductwork has the capacity to handle the airfl ow required
for the unit. If ducting is too small, as in the replacement
of a heating only system, larger ductwork should be
installed. All existing ductwork should be checked for
leaks and repaired as necessary.
