Place Remote System
Roof preparation
Most installations of this system will place the
compressor package and condenser on the roof of
a building. The roof must be physically stout
enough to accept the load of the equipment and
the roofing material must be prepared to prevent
water leaks.
Follow local codes for the placement and
attachment of the equipment.
Location
The condensing unit assembly requires
unobstructed air flow to operate efficiently. A four
foot space between each intake side and a wall or
other cabinet is recommended.
Do not place where it will pick up hot discharged
air from an air conditioner or other refrigeration
system condensing unit.
Space must also be reserved for service on the
compressor package. If using the ER2C6810
condenser, save space for the second CP unit to
be attached to the other end of the condenser.
Roof Piercing:
The roof (or wall) must have a passage large
enough for the three pre-charged, pre-bent tubes
and the control wire to pass through. The minimum
recommended size is 4” ID. In most areas the
power supply may also pass through the same
passage. If there isn’t a passage one must be
created. In most cases this must be done by a
licensed and bonded roofer in order to maintain the
roof’s integrity.
Suggestions:
Hoist the compressor package and condenser to
the roof in separate loads.
Note: In most cases a mechanical lift, boom truck
or crane will be required to hoist the condensing
unit components.
Assemble the compressor package to the
condenser and mount both to either roof rails or
pressure treated 4 x 4s.
Orient the assembled unit so that the unit’s mounts
are parallel to the pitch of the roof to allow water to
drain freely.
Do NOT place the unit directly onto roof rock.
