Installation

Installation requires ability equivalent to that of a qualified HVAC 

installer. Installation skills such as air supply, venting, and duct 

installation  are  required.  If  you  are  not  qualified  and  licensed  or 

certified as required by the authority having jurisdiction to perform 

a given task do not attempt installation. Contact a local HVAC 

contractor to perform the installation.
Installation must comply with all national, state and local building 

codes and agencies having jurisdiction. Check with your local 

building code authority if you have any questions regarding code 

compliance.
1.  Inlet air is derived through louvered grill(s) installed in a door or 

wall between the installation space and another space inside 

the building structure. The space from where inlet air is derived 

must be a minimum of 750 cubic feet. See Figure 4.

2.  Installation is permitted in confined spaces between 750 and 

610 cubic feet of space using one louvered grill or in spaces 

between 610 and 460 cubic feet using two louvered grills. See 

Figure 4 and Table 2.

3.  For installation in confined spaces of less than 460 cubic feet the 

accessory Outlet Duct Kit (PN 9910006000) is required. With 

this kit installation is permitted in confined spaces between 460 

and 400 cubic feet with one louvered grill or in spaces between 

400 and 128 cubic feet with two louvered grills. See  Figure 4 

and Table 2

4.  Minimum louvered grill size is 16” x 24” for each grill installed. 

Fully louvered doors are an acceptable substitute for louvered 

grill(s) if the louvered area of the door is not less than the total 

required area the grill(s) would provide. 

5.  Follow the instructions included with the Outlet Duct Kit for  the 

included duct adapter and ductwork.

6.  Eight (8) inch flexible ducting is required but not supplied in the 

Outlet Duct Kit. Suitable ducting is readily available at home 

centers or HVAC supplies.

7.  Duct collars and boots may also be required but are not 

supplied with the Outlet Duct Kit. Suitable collars and boots are 

readily available from home centers or HVAC supplies.

8.  The maximum length of duct allowed is 10 feet. This maximum 

length must not be exceeded under any circumstances.

9.  Ducting should be installed as straightly as possible; there 

must be no kinks or flattening of the ductwork. 

10. The Outlet Duct Kit and connected ductwork must redirect 

outlet  air  from  the  unit  to  a  location  other  than  the  confined 

installation space. The alternate location to where the outlet air 

is redirected must be a minimum of 750 cubic feet.

Table 2

Do not duct air from a garage or other

space where potentially harmful fumes

from solvents, chemicals or exhaust

from automobiles are present into any

other space in the building structure.
Gas and carbon monoxide detectors

are available.

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause brain damage or

death. Always read and understand instruction manual.

Breathing Hazard - Carbon Monoxide Gas

11. The outlet air from a unit installed in a garage or drawing 

inlet air from a garage or any area where solvents or other 

chemicals that emit potentially harmful fumes are stored or 

automobiles are located must never be ducted to any other 

space inside the building structure. This would include all 

occupied and unoccupied spaces such as attics or basements. 

Potentially harmful fumes and vapors could be introduced into 

living spaces.

12. A duct termination or grill is required at the end of the duct 

run but not supplied with the Outlet Duct Kit. Suitable duct 

terminations and grills are readily available from home centers 

or  HVAC  supplies.  Terminations  must  be  fitted  with  screens   

or designed to prevent rodents, other pests and debris from 

entering the ductwork. If terminated outdoors or to another 

space where water or moisture may enter the ductwork, 

terminations designed to prevent water or moisture infiltration 

must be used.

13. If outlet ductwork is terminated through a ceiling into an 

attic space provision must be made to ensure the ductwork 

terminates well above the insulation line in the attic to prevent 

insulation from entering the ductwork. A short section of 8 inch 

round metal duct may be used with a suitable duct termination. 

Overall duct length, including flexible and metal duct must not 

exceed 10 feet.

14. Ductwork that transitions through walls or ceilings must be 

properly sealed to prevent rodent, other pests or moisture 

infiltration.
