YORK Model BCH units are single package heat
pumps. These are designed for outdoor installation on
a rooftop or slab.
The units are completely assembled on rigid, perma-
nently attached base rails. All piping, refrigerant
charge, and electrical wiring is factory installed and
tested. The units require electric power, duct connec-
tions, installation of fixed outdoor air intake damper
(units without economizer or motorized damper option
only) at the point of installation.
The supplemental field installed electric heaters have
nickel-chrome elements and utilize single point power
connection.
