CLEARANCE
Select the installation location and support system (curb, stand or other) that meets or exceeds
all of the minimum safety clearance requirements.
BOTTOM
Equipment should be installed to allow clearance for proper condensate trap (If applicable). Also,
the equipment is not to be installed on combustible surfaces.
SIDES
The minimum recommended clearance on all sides of the equipment except for the service side
and bottom is 6 inches.
SERVICE
The service side should have a minimum of 24 inches of clearance; however it is recommended
that the clearance be at least the width of the widest door.
Also, if the equipment includes any coils or has twin blowers more clearance should be provided
for removal of those components.
The minimum clearances listed above are set, in place, by the standard in which Titan Air builds
their equipment to meet; however, one should consult with all authorities having jurisdiction to
ensure they don’t require larger clearances. Furthermore, the equipment must be installed in such a
way to facilitate smooth operation and maintenance of all built in sections and components. Also, it
should be noted that the coil pull could be located on either side of the equipment. Review the
equipment submittal drawing for the correct direction of the coil pull.
CURBING (OUTDOOR MOUNTING)
The use of a full perimeter curb or mounting rails under the heater is recommended. The only
openings in the roof should be for the supply air duct, return air duct (if required), gas and electrical
connections (if applicable). These openings must be sealed properly after installation. Titan Air
ships all curbs unassembled and un-insulated. Installing contractor supplies gaskets, cant strips,
insulation, etc. Height of the curb is specified when the equipment is purchased.
INSTALLATION SAFETY
RIGGING
DANGER: Never enlarge lifting lug hole to accommodate larger anchor
shackle.
WARNING: Never assemble equipment sections or sub-assemblies together
before rigging. Always rig equipment the way it was shipped from the factory.
CAUTION: It is the installer’s responsibility to confirm that the lifting equipment
capacity exceeds equipment weight by an adequate safety factor. Never stack
inlet hoods or other components onto the equipment
as the equipment is
being lifted.
IMPORTANT: Apply appropriate sealant to roof curb and duct adapter(s) prior
to setting the equipment in place (If applicable).
Lifting Requirements:
Protect coil connections, extending through equipment casing, from damage by
the rigging cables through the use of plywood or other suitable materials.
