local codes or ordinances or in their absence with the latest
edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1.

Roof overhang should be no more than 36".
Minimum clearances are required to avoid air recirculation
and keep the unit operating at peak efficiency. A minimum
12 inch clearance is required to the condenser coil.

The flue outlet hood is packaged separately inside
the unit and must be installed prior to operation.

installing the unit.
Refer to Roof curb Installation Instructions for proper curb
installation. Curbing must be installed in compliance with the
National Roofing Contractors Association Manual.

within the return air duct. The minimum filter area should not
be less than those sizes listed in the Specification Section.
