INTRODUCTION

This packaged heat pump is fully self-contained and designed for outdoor installation (See Fig. 1). Standard units are shipped in a horizontal- discharge configuration for installation on a ground-level slab or directly on the ground if local codes permit.
Standard units can be converted to downflow (vertical) discharge configurations for rooftop applications with a field supplied plenum.

RECEIVING AND INSTALLATION

Step 1 — Check Equipment
IDENTIFY UNIT
The unit model number and serial number are printed on the unit informative plate. Check this information against shipping papers.
INSPECT SHIPMENT
Inspect for shipping damage while unit is still on shipping pallet. If unit appears to be damaged or is torn loose from its anchorage, have it examined by transportation inspectors before removal.
Forward claim papers directly to transportation company. Manufacturer is not responsible for any damage incurred in transit.
Check all items against shipping list. Immediately notify the nearest equipment distribution office if any item is missing. To prevent loss or damage, leave all parts in original packages until installation.
Step 2 — Provide Unit Support
For hurricane tie downs, contact distributor for details and PE (Professional Engineering) Certificate, if required. SLAB MOUNT
Place the unit on a solid, level concrete pad that is a minimum of 4 in. (102 mm) thick with 2 in. (51 mm) above grade. The slab should extend approximately 2 in. (51 mm) beyond the casing on all 4 sides of the unit. Do not secure the unit to the slab except when required by local codes.
A 6-in. (152 mm) wide gravel apron should be used around the flat surface to prevent airflow blockage by grass or shrubs. The unit should be level within 1/4 in. (6 mm). This is necessary for the unit drain to function properly.
GROUND MOUNT
The unit may be installed either on a slab or placed directly on the ground if local codes permit. Place the unit on level ground prepared with gravel for condensate discharge.
Step 3 — Provide Clearances
The required minimum service clearances are shown in Fig. 4.
Adequate ventilation and outdoor air must be provided.
The outdoor fan draws air through the outdoor coil and discharges it through the top fan grille. Be sure that the fan discharge does not recirculate to the outdoor coil. Do not locate the unit in either a corner or under an overhead obstruction. The minimum clearance under a partial overhang (such as a normal house overhang) is 48 in. (1219 mm) above the unit top. The maximum horizontal extension of a partial overhang must not exceed 48 in. (1219 mm).
IMPORTANT: Do not restrict outdoor airflow. An air restriction at either the outdoor-air inlet or the fan discharge may be detrimental to compressor life.
Do not place the unit where water, ice, or snow from an overhang or roof will damage or flood the unit. Do not install the unit on carpeting or other combustible materials. Slab-mounted units should be at least 4 in. (102 mm) above the highest expected water
and runoff levels. Do not use unit if it has been under water.
Step 4 — Place Unit
Unit can be moved with the rigging holds provided in the unit base. Refer to Table 1 for operating weights. Use extreme caution to prevent damage when moving the unit. Unit must remain in an upright position during all moving operations. The unit must be  level with in 1/4in.(6 mm)for proper condensat edrainage; the ground-level pad must be level before setting the unit in place.
When a field-fabricated support is used,be sure that the support is level and that it properly supports the unit.
Step 5 — Select and Install Ductwork
The design and installation of the duct system nmst be in accordance with the standards of the NFPA for installation of non-residence type air conditioning and ventilating systems, NFPA 90A or residence type, NFPA 90B and/or local codes and ordinances.
Select and size ductwork, supply-air registers, and return air grilles according to ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air Conditioning Engineers) recommendations.
Use the duct flanges provided on the supply- and return-air openings on the side of the unit. See Fig. 4 for connection sizes and locations. The 14-in. (356 mm) round or 14 x 20 in. (356 x 508 mm) rectangular duct collars are shipped inside the unit attached to the base pan in the indoor blower compartment. They are field-installed and must be removed from the indoor blower compartment prior to start-up, even if they are not used for installation. If a corrugated shipping block is used under the blower housing, remove and discard the block and label.
When designing and installing ductwork, consider the following:

CAUTION
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in damage to unit components.
When connecting ductwork to units, do not drill deeper than 3/4 in. (19 ram) in shaded area shown in Fig. 2 or coil may be damaged.

  1. All units should have field-supplied filters or accessory filter rack installed in the return-air side of the unit.
    Recommended sizes for filters are shown in Table 1.

  2. Avoid abrupt duct size increases and reductions. Abrupt change in duct size adversely affects air performance.
    IMPORTANT: Use flexible connectors between ductwork and unit to prevent transmission of vibration. Use suitable gaskets to ensure weather tight and airtight seal. When electric heat is installed, use fireproof canvas (or similar heat resistant material) connector between ductwork and unit discharge connection. If flexible duct is used, insert a sheet metal sleeve inside duct. Heat resistant duct connector (or sheet metal sleeve) must extend 24-in. (610 ram) from electric heater element.

  3. Size ductwork for cooling air quantity (cfm). The naininmm air quantity for proper electric heater operation is listed in Table 2. Heater limit switches may trip at air quantities below those recommended.

  4. Seal, insulate, and weatherproof all external ductwork. Seal, insulate and cover with a vapor barrier all ductwork passing through conditioned spaces. Follow latest Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association (SMACNA) and Air Conditioning Contractors Association (ACCA) naininmm installation standards for residential heating and air conditioning systems.

  5. Secure all ducts to building structure. Flash, weatherproof, and vibration-isolate duct openings in wall or roof according to good construction practices.

Fig. 6 shows a typical duct system with unit installed.

CONFIGURING UNITS FOR DOWNFLOW (VERTICAL) DISCHARGE
Units are dedicated side supply products. They are not convertible to vertical air supply. A field-supplied plenum must be used to convert to vertical air discharge.
Step 6 — Connect Condensate Drain
NOTE: When installing condensate drain connection be sure to comply with local codes and restrictions.
Unit removes condensate through a 1-3/64 in. (27 mm) ID hole (using 3/4-in. (19 mm) ID piping or tubing) which is located at the end of the unit. See Fig. 4 for location of condensate connection.
Condensate water can be drained directly onto the roof in rooftop installations (where permitted) or onto a gravel apron in ground level installations. Install a field-supplied condensate trap at end of condensate connection to ensure proper drainage. Make sure that the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. (25 mm) lower than the drain pan condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing (See Fig. 7 and 8). When using a gravel apron, make sure it slopes away from the unit.
If the installation requires draining the condensate water away from the unit, install a 2-in. (51 mm) trap using a 3/4-in. (19 mm) ID tubing or pipe. (See Fig. 7 and 8.) Make sure that the outlet of the trap is at least 1 in. (25 mm) lower than the unit drain-pan
condensate connection to prevent the pan from overflowing. Prime the trap with water. Connect a drain tube using a minimum of 3/4-in. (19 mm) PVC, 3/4-in. (19 mm) CPVC, or 3/4-in. copper pipe (all field supplied). Do not undersize the tube. Pitch the drain tube downward at a slope of at least 1 in. (25 mm) for every 10 ft (3 m) of horizontal run. Be sure to check the drain tube for leaks.
Prime trap at the beginning of the cooling season start-up. Allowable glues for condensate trap connection are: Standard ABS, CPVC, or PVC cement. Step 7 — Install Electrical Connections

Disconnect electrical power to the unit and install lockout tag before changing blower speed,

Blower speed tap can be changed by replacing the factory installed blue low speed tap wire (cooling) with the unused black high speed wire in unit control box. The red medium speed wire is factory installed to operate with a call for supplemental electric heat. See unit wiring diagram.
Be sure new airflow meets the range noted above and minimum electric heat CFM, if equipped. Refer to Table 2 and 5.
All model sizes are factory wired or rated airflow operation.
Step 5 — Sequence of Operation
FAN OPERATION
The FAN switch on the thermostat controls indoor fan operation.
When the FAN switch is placed in the ON position, the indoor (evaporator) fan motor (IFM) is energized through the G terminal on the thermostat. The motor’s internal logic then provides power to the indoor (evaporator) fan motor (IFM). The IFM will run
continuously when the FAN switch is set to ON.
When the FAN switch is set to AUTO, the thermostat deenergizes the IFM (provided there is not a call for cooling). The contacts open and the IFM is deenergized. The IFM will be energized only when there is a call for cooling, in heat pump heating mode or if
the unit is equipped with accessory electric heat, the indoor-fan motor will also run while the accessory electric heat is energized.

NOTE: Motors on this product are programmed for 60 second time delay on tap 1 and 30 second time delay on tap 2. There is no time delay on tap 3. The indoor fan will remain ON for the set time delay after G or W2 is de- energized.

COOLING OPERATION
With a call for cooling (Y), the compressor, outdoor fan, and indoor fan start immediately. When the cooling demand is met, Y de-energizes, shutting the compressor, indoor fan and the outdoor fan.
HEATING OPERATION
With a call for heating (Y), the compressor, outdoor fan, and indoor fan start immediately. If Y cannot satisfy the heating demand, the auxiliary or backup heat (W2) energizes. In case of staged heating, W3 is energized if the demand is not met. When heating demand is met, W3, W2 and Y sequentially de-energize shutting the compressor, indoor fan and the outdoor fan.
CONTINUOUS FAN
With the continuous indoor fan option selected on the thermostat, G is continuously energized. The continuous fan speed will be the same as the cooling fan speed.
DEFROST
Defrost board (DB) is a time and temperature control, which includes a field- selectable time period between checks for defrost (30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes). The time period is factory-set at 60 minutes and should only be adjusted by a trained service person.
Electronic timer and defrost cycle start only when contactor is energized and defrost thermostat (DFT) is closed.
Defrost mode is identical to Cooling mode. The outdoor fan motor stops because of “OFI” and “OF2” contacts opening on the defrost  board, a bank of optional electric heat turns on to warm air supplying the conditioned space.
ELECTRIC RESISTANCE HEATING
If accessory electric heaters are installed, on a call for “Emergency Heat” the thermostat energizes W which energizes the heater relay and in turn energizes the electric heaters. The IFM is energized which starts the indoor- fan motor. If the heaters are staged, W2 is energized when the second stage of heating is required. When the need for heating is satisfied, the heater and IFM are de-energized.
