rior insulation becoming wet and cause the growth
of mold which is known to cause odors and serious
indoor air quality problems and health issues.
•
Chassis units must be stored in the upright position
to keep oil in the compressor.
•
Riser ends should be capped if being stored on site
to prevent contamination from foreign objects and
debris.
Wet insulation can cause the growth of mold.
Any sign of mold growth in the interior insula-
tion should be removed, cabinet interior disin-
fected with anti
-
microbial cleaner and re-
placed prior to operating the unit.
Do not store cabinets on their side when
chassis units are inside. Chassis units should
always be stored and transported in the up-
right position otherwise damage to chassis
may occur.
The refrigeration system of these units con-
tains POE oil. PVC/CPVC piping is prone to
failure when in contact with POE oil. PVC/
CPVC piping should not be used for water
supply and return with any heat pump prod-
ucts as this may result in failure of the system
and serious property damage.
Do not rest or lean the unit on the risers. Do not use
the risers or stub
-
outs to pick up the unit. Only des-
ignated lift points should be used when moving or
lifting cabinets. Do not drop the risers.
5. CABINET & RISER INSTALLATION
Risers are designed to have slight adjust-
ments for riser system expansion and aligning
the stub
-
outs in the cabinet opening. When
installing risers, do not let riser stubs bottom
out in the riser swage.
Risers are designed to allow for 1
-
1/2 inches
of movement due to expansion and contrac-
tion. If the total calculated riser expansion ex-
ceeds ±1
-
1/2 inches the field must provide
expansion compensators.
Riser stub
-
outs should be located as centrally
as possible in the cabinet opening. Do not
allow stub
-
outs to rest or contact the sheet
metal opening.
Do not allow the risers to bottom out when
installing into the swage.
FOR SHIPPED LOOSE RISER SHUT
-
OFF VALVES
Visually inspect riser stub
-
outs and shut
-
off
valves for debris or damage.
Follow industry standard soldering practices
when soldering shut
-
off valves to riser stub
-
outs.
Ensure riser stub
-
out surface is cleaned of any
residue, soot or oils. Failure to adequately
clean soldering surfaces can result in water
leaks, property damage and physical injury.
When soldering shut
-
off valves to riser stub
outs, adequately protect cabinet, insulation
and any other equipment from exposure to
flames and heat.
CABINET INSTALL
1. When cabinets are shipped with risers attached,
place cabinets in a horizontal position on the floor (do
not rest cabinet on the risers).
2. If required, install any field or factory supplied riser
extensions to the unit mounted risers.
3. Raise the entire cabinet slowly upright while at the
same time lowering the risers through the floor cut
-
out
opening. Align the risers to the matching swaged
(optional) section of the riser on the floor below.
4. Optional swaged sections are approximately 3 inch-
es deep. Risers should be inserted at a depth of ap-
proximately 2 inches into the 3 inch deep swage. Con-
firm risers penetrate at a minimum of 1 inch into the
swage. Do not allow the riser tailpiece to bottom out
fully into the 3 inch deep swage. This will allow for mi-
nor floor to floor variations, otherwise riser overlap may
not be sufficient on upper floors.
5. Align and center riser positions in the pipe chase
and level cabinet as necessary.
6. Secure the cabinet to the floor. Cabinet base comes
with factory mounted pads.
7. Center the riser stub
-
outs in the cabinet openings to
allow for riser expansion and prevent contact with cabi-
net sheet metal. Prevent riser stub
-
outs from contacting
sheet metal pass through otherwise damage to stub
-
outs may occur, resulting in property damage.
