2.2 RECEIVING
Immediately upon receipt, all cartons and contents should be inspected for transit dam-
age. Units with damaged cartons should be opened immediately. If damage is found, it
should be noted on the delivery papers, and a damage claim filed with the last carrier.
• After unit has been delivered to job site, remove carton taking care not to damage
unit.
• Check the unit rating plate for unit size, electric heat, coil, voltage, phase, etc. to be
sure equipment matches what is required for the job specification.
• Read the entire instructions before starting the installation.
• Some building codes require extra cabinet insulation and gasketing when unit is
installed in attic applications.
• If installed in an unconditioned space, apply caulking around the power wires, control
wires, refrigerant tubing and condensate line where they enter the cabinet. Seal the
power wires on the inside where they exit conduit opening. Caulking is required to
pre-vent air leakage into and condensate from forming inside the unit, control box,
and on electrical controls.
• Install the unit in such a way as to allow necessary access to the coil/filter rack and
blower/control compartment.
• Install the unit in a level position to ensure proper condensate drainage. Make sure
unit is level in both directions within 1/8”.
• Install the unit in accordance with any local code which may apply and the national
codes. Latest editions are available from: “National Fire Protection Association, Inc.,
Batterysmarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269.” These publications are:
• ANSI/NFPA No. 70-(Latest Edition) National Electrical Code.
• NFPA90A Installation of Air Conditioning and Ventilating Systems.
• NFPA90B Installation of warm air heating and air conditioning systems.
• The equipment has been evaluated in accordance with the Code of Federal
Regulations, Chapter XX, Part 3280.
2.3 CLEARANCES
• All units are designed for “0” inches clearance to combustible material on all cabinet
surfaces.
• Some units require supply duct clearances and combustible floor bases depending on
the heating kW. The following table should be used to determine these requirements:
Units with electric heating kW above that listed in the table require a one inch clear-
ance to combustible material for the first three feet of supply plenum and ductwork.
Additionally, if these units are installed downflow, a combustible floor base is
required.
Units with electric heating kW equal to or less than the values listed in the table do
not require supply ductwork clearances or combustible floor bases.
• Vertical units require clearance on at least one side of the unit for electrical connec-
tions. Horizontal units require clearance on either top or bottom for electrical connec-
tions. Refrigerant and condensate drain connections are made on the front of the unit.
• All units require 24 inches minimum access to the front of the unit for service.
• These units may be installed in either ventilated or nonventilated spaces.

NOTICE
In compliance with recognized codes, it is recommended that an auxiliary
drain pan be installed under all evaporator coils or units containing evapo-
rator coils that are located in any area of a structure where damage to the
building or building contents may occur as a result of an overflow of the
coil drain pan or a stoppage in the primary condensate drain piping. See
accessories section of these instructions for auxiliary horizontal overflow
pan information (model RXBM).
