INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
2. Slide the RC
3
0 into the wall sleeve until the supply
duct is flush with the supply louver on the room cabinet.
Hydronic Only:
Remove the 2-position connector
assembly from kit bag supplied with unit (this will have
2 yellow wires attached). Connect this 2-position
connector to the 2-position connection located on the
bottom of the control box panel.
To Connect Aquastat:
A.
Remove the black jumper wire located on the
bottom panel of the control box (this is also
terminated with a 2-position connector).
B.
Cut the jumper wire in the middle and splice the
Aquastat to the jumper.
C.
Place the connecter back into original location.
Refer to wire diagram on the unit for details.
3. See Final Inspection and Startup on page 11.
RC/RH30 SAFETY NOTE:
When turning the selector
knob on the RC/RH30 for mode of operation, it is very
important to make sure the knob position is
“SEATED”
directly on a mode of operation
(clicks
into position)
.
Do not mistakenly place between two
positions.
This can result in a potential fan failure while
the system is in a cooling or heating operation. A fan
failure could result in the unit overheating (smoke) in
an electric heating mode, or freezing coil in a cooling
mode.
(See page 11)
The RetroAire RC/RH30 is available as a cooling only model
or, for those who wish to upgrade to a heat pump, the RH30
heat pump chassis will fit the existing wall sleeve. The heat
pump version will reduce energy costs during periods of
outdoor temperature ranging down to as low as 40
°
F.
The RC/RH30 uses a high-efficiency rotary compressor
protected under a 5-year warranty and an enhanced high-
efficiency heat exchanger to make the replacement of worn
out and inefficient units a very attractive option.
Whisper quiet operation improves the room ambience and
the 20 gauge G-90U galvanized steel construction of the
chassis ensures long service life.
The RetroAire RC/RH30 with override switch offers three
fan speeds, and has an optional motorized fresh air feature
with a positive pressure seal, and positive condensate re-
evaporation to improve efficiency.
Cabinet fronts are available to match with various wall
sleeve depths. (See chart on page 8)
