Install Ductwork
■
Install ductwork in accordance with NFPA 90B and any local
codes.
■
The use of flexible, noncombustible connectors between the
main trunk ducts and the supply and return air plenums is
recommended to minimize vibration transmission.
■
Plenums must be individually sealed to heat pump or
condensing unit casing with ducts terminating inside the
structure.
■
Flashing used to cover ductwork must permit removal of
access panels and top. See “Minimum Clearances” in the
“Locations Requirements” section.
Filters
Filters are not supplied with these heat pumps or condensing
units; however, filters must be used. It is the installer’s
responsibility to install a filter rack with the ductwork and to
install properly sized filters in accordance with the Minimum
Required Surface Area for Disposable Filters chart.
All return air must pass through a filter before entering the heat
pump or condensing unit. An electronic air cleaner, filter rack or
other accessible filter arrangement must be installed in the return
air ductwork. Minimum recommended filter areas are listed in the
Minimum Required Surface Area for Disposable Filters chart, and
are based on a face velocity of 325 ft (99.1 m) per min. for
disposable filters and 525 ft (160 m) per min. for cleanable filters.
