Installation Clearances

Non-Ducted Return Closet Installation
The air handler can be installed in a closet with a false bottom to form a return air plenum. It may also be installed with a return air plenum under the air handler. Louvers or return air grilles are field-supplied. Local codes may limit application of systems without a ducted return to single-story buildings. When an air handler unit is installed in a closet with a louvered return opening, the minimum open area for the louvers will be: · 320 square inches for 018 and 024 models; · 360 square inches for 036 models; · 450 square inches for 048 through 060 models If the free area is not known, assume a 25% free area for wood or a 75% free area for metal louvers or grilles. Using the louver dimensions and the 25% or 75% assumption, determine if the open area meets the minimum open area listed above. If a return air plenum is used, the return air grille should be immediately in front of the opening in the plenum to allow for the free flow of return air. When not installed in front of the opening, there must be adequate clearance around the air handler to allow for the free flow of return air.

Duct Connections
Air supply and return can be handled in one of several ways best suited to the installation (see table for dimensions for duct inlet and outlet connections). The vast majority of problems encountered with combination cooling systems can be linked to improperly designed or installed duct systems. It is therefore highly important to the success of an installation that the duct system be properly designed and installed. Use flexible duct collars to minimize the transmission of vibration/noise into the conditioned space. Where return air duct is short, or where sound could potentially be a problem, use sound absorbing liner inside the duct. Insulation of duct work is a must where it runs through an unconditioned space during the cooling season. The use of a vapor barrier is recommended to prevent absorption of moisture from the surrounding air into the insulation. The supply air duct should be properly sized by use of a transition to match unit opening. All ducts should be suspended using flexible hangers and never fastened directly to the structure. This unit is not designed for non-ducted (freeblow) applications. Duct work should be fabricated and installed in accordance with local and/or national codes. Follow ACCA Manual D guidelines for return air filter grille sizing.

2. Install properly sized, field-provided connection fittings and connect primary drain line to the main drain pan connection.
NOTE – When installing drain line connection fittings to the drain pan, hand tighten the fitting and use a thread sealant. Over-tightening the fittings can split connections on the drain pan.
3. If the secondary drain line is to be used, remove the plug or the knockout and route the drain line so that water draining from the outlet will be easily noticed by the homeowner. Refer to local codes for drain trap requirements on the secondary drain line.
4. Check again to ensure drain ports and drain pan are free of all debris.
5. Plug and check any unused drain pan openings for tightness. Torque plugs to 36 in. lb. to prevent water leaks.
6. Install a 2″ trap in the main (primary) drain lines as close to the unit as practical (“Figure 2. Typical Main and Overflow Drain”). Make sure the top of the trap is below the connection to the drain pan to allow complete drainage of the pan.

NOTE – Horizontal runs must have an anti-siphon air vent (standpipe) installed ahead of the horizontal run. See “Figure 2. Typical Main and Overflow Drain”. An extremely long horizontal run may require an oversized drain line to eliminate air traps. NOTE – Do not operate air handler without a trap in the main (primary) drain. The condensate drain is on the negative pressure side of the blower; therefore, air being pulled through the condensate line will not allow positive drainage without a proper trap. 7. Route the drain line to the outside or to an appropriate
drain. Drain lines must be installed so they do not block service access to the front of the air handler. A 24″ clearance is required for filter, coil, or blower removal and service access. NOTE – Check local codes before connecting the drain line to an existing drainage system. Insulate the drain lines where sweating could cause water damage.
Test Condensate Drain
Test the drain pan and drain line after installation:
1. Pour several quarts of water into drain pan. Use enough water to fill both the drain trap and the line.
2. Check the installed drain pan. Drain pan must be draining completely. Drain line fittings must not be leaking. Water must be draining from the end of the primary drain line.
3. Correct any leaks found.

Refrigerant Piping Connection
WARNING
· All field piping must be completed by a licensed technician and must comply with the local and national regulations.
· When the heat pump is installed in a small room, measures must be taken to prevent the refrigerant concentration in the room from exceeding the safety limit in the event of refrigerant leakage. If the refrigerant leaks and its concentration exceeds its proper limit, hazards due to lack of oxygen may result.
· When installing the refrigeration system, ensure that air, dust, moisture or foreign substances do not enter the refrigerant circuit. Contamination in the system may cause poor operating capacity, high pressure in the refrigeration cycle, explosion or injury.
· Ventilate the area immediately if there is refrigerant leakage during the installation. Leaked refrigerant gas is both toxic and flammable. Ensure there is no refrigerant leakage after completing the installation work.

Pipe Length and Elevation

Ensure the length of the refrigerant pipe, the number of bends, and the drop height between the indoor and outdoor units meet the requirements shown in the table below.

Oil Trap
CAUTION
If oil flows back into the outdoor unit’s compressor, this might cause liquid compression or deterioration of oil return. Oil traps in the rising refrigerant piping can prevent this. An oil trap should be installed every 20ft (6m) of vertical suction line riser (less than 36000 Btu/h unit). An oil trap should be installed every 32.8ft (10m) of vertical suction line riser (greater than or equal to 36000Btu/h unit). Reference the Lennox Refrigerant Piping Guidelines (Corp. 9351-L9) for further guidance.

Connection Instructions – Refrigerant Piping
CAUTION
· DO NOT install the connecting pipe until both indoor and outdoor units have been installed.
· Insulate both gas and liquid piping, and all flared brass connections thoroughly to prevent condensation.
Cut Pipes
When preparing refrigerant pipes, take extra care to cut and flare them properly. This will ensure efficient operation and minimize the need for future maintenance. 1. Measure the distance between the indoor and outdoor
units. 2. Using a pipe cutter, cut the pipe a little longer than the
measured distance. 3. Make sure that the pipe is cut at a perfect 90° angle.

Flare Pipe Ends Proper flaring is essential to achieve an airtight seal. 1. After removing burrs from cut pipe, seal the ends with
PVC tape to prevent foreign materials from entering the pipe. 2. Sheath the pipe with insulating material. 3. Place flare nuts on both ends of pipe. 4. Verify the flare nuts are facing the right direction because the flare nuts cannot be adjusted after flaring.
5. Remove PVC tape from ends of pip when ready to perform flare work.
6. Clamp flare form on the end of the pipe. The end of the pipe must extend beyond the flare form.

NOTE: Use extreme caution when cutting the pipe. Avoid damaging, denting, or warping the pipe while cutting it. Damaged pipes will drastically reduce the heating efficiency of the unit.
Remove Burrs

Burrs can affect the air-tight seal of refrigerant piping connection. Burrs must be completely removed.
1. Hold the pipe at a downward angle to prevent burrs from falling into the pipe.
2. Using a reamer or deburring tool, remove all burrs from the cut section of the pipe.

7. Place flaring tool onto the form. 8. Turn the handle of the flaring tool clockwise until the
pipe is fully flared. Flare the pipe in accordance to the dimensions in Table

9. Remove the flaring tool and flare form. 10. Inspect the end of the pipe for cracks and even flaring.
Connect Pipes
Connect the copper pipes to the indoor unit first, then connect it to the outdoor unit. Connect the low-pressure pipe, then the high-pressure pipe.
1. When connecting the flare nuts, apply a thin coat of refrigeration oil to the flared ends of the pipes.
2. Align the center of the two pipes to be connected. 3. Tighten the flare nut snugly by hand. 4. Use a wrench to grip the nut on the unit tubing. 5. Firmly grip the nut and us a torque wrench to tighten
the flare nut according to Table 1. NOTE: Use a spanner and torque wrench when
connecting or disconnecting pipes to/from the unit.

CAUTION
· Wrap insulation around the piping. · Direct contact with bare piping may result in burns
or frostbite. · Ensure the pipe is properly connected. Over-tight-
ening may damage the bell mouth and under-tightening may lead to leakage.
NOTE: Minimum Bend Radius – Carefully bend the tubing in the middle according to the diagram below. DO NOT bend the tubing more than 90° or more than three times.
Bend the tube with thumb

min-radius 3.9″ (10 cm)
6. After connecting the copper pipes to the indoor unit, wrap the power cable, signal cable and the piping together with binding tape.
NOTE: DO NOT intertwine or cross the signal cable with any other wiring while bundling the wires together.
7. Thread this pipeline through the wall and connect it to the outdoor unit.
8. Insulate all the piping, including the valves of the outdoor unit.
9. Open the stop valves of the outdoor unit to start the flow of the refrigerant between the indoor and outdoor unit.
CAUTION
Verify there is not a refrigerant leak after completing the installation work. If there is a refrigerant leak, ventilate the area immediately and evacuate the system.

Network address: · The address silkscreen is NET address, which is composed of a 16bit address rotary code S2 plus a two-digit DIP switch S1 (Set during engineering installation, no network function needs to be set)
· When S2 is 00 (the dialing code is not connected), the network address value is S2
· When S2 is 10 (corresponding to the switch of the hardware connected to the 10K resistor), the network address value is S2 plus 32
· Determined by dial code S2 1-10K 2-5.1K. When S2 is 01 (corresponding to the dial code of the 5.1K resistor connected to the hardware is turned on), the network address value is S2 plus 16
· When S2 is 11 (all dialing codes are on), the network address value is S2 plus 48.

Torque Requirements for Caps and Fasteners
When servicing or repairing HVAC components, ensure the fasteners are appropriately tightened. “Table 3. Torque Requirements” provides torque values for fasteners.
IMPORTANT
Only use Allen wrenches of sufficient hardness (50Rc – Rockwell scale minimum). Fully insert the wrench into the valve stem recess.
Service valve stems are factory-torqued from 9 ft.-lbs. (12 N*m) for small valves, to 25 ft.-lbs. (34 N) for large valves) to prevent refrigerant loss during shipping and handling. Using an Allen wrench rated at less than 50Rc risks rounding or breaking off the wrench, or stripping the valve stem recess. See the Lennox Service and Application Notes C-08-1 for further details and information.

Outdoor Unit Installation

CAUTION
In order to avoid injury, take proper precaution when lifting heavy objects.
Placement Considerations
Consider the following when positioning the unit: · In coastal areas or other places with salty atmosphere of sulfate gas, corrosion may shorten the life of the unit. In
coastal areas, the coil should be cleaned with potable water several times per year to avoid corrosive buildup (salt).

Page 40

· Some localities are adopting sound ordinances based on the unit’s sound level registered from the adjacent property, not from the property where the unit is installed. Install the unit as far as possible from the property line.
· When possible, do not install the unit directly outside a window. Glass has a very high level of sound transmission. · Install unit level.
Building Structure
Ground Level
Figure 17. Install Unit Level (Typical) · Choose a place solid enough to bear the weight and vibration of the unit, where the operation noise will not be ampli-
fied. · Choose a location where the hot air discharged from the unit or the operation noise will not be a nuisance to neighbors. · Avoid installing the outdoor unit near a bedroom or other places where noise may cause a problem. · There must be sufficient space to carry the unit into and out of the site. · There must be unobstructed air flow around the air inlet and the air outlet. · The unit must not be installed in areas where a flammable gas leak may occur. · Install the outdoor unit a minimum of 3 feet (1m) away from any antenna, power cord (line), radio, telephone, security
system, or intercom. Electrical interference and radio frequencies from any of these sources may affect operation. · Since water drains from the outdoor unit during various stages of operation, do not place anything which may be dam-
aged by moisture under the unit. Direct Sunlight, Rain, Snow and Ice Protection · If the outdoor unit is subjected to prolong exposure to direct sunlight with temperatures over 100°F (38°C) a canopy
is recommended as illustrated in”Figure 18. Outdoor Unit on Pedestal (Stand) and Protective Canopy (Typical)” or “Figure 23. Dog House-Style Shelter (Typical)” on page 43.
IMPORTANT
The construction of a canopy or shade is recommended because of an ambient limit control set to 122°F (50°C) to protect the electronics. If the outdoor unit is placed in direct sunlight it is possible that the limit may activate and shut down the unit. · Place unit away from overhanging roof lines which would allow water or ice to drop on, or in front of, coil or into unit.
Construct a canopy as illustrated in “Figure 18. Outdoor Unit on Pedestal (Stand) and Protective Canopy (Typical)”. · The unit base should be elevated above the depth of average snows as illustrated in “Figure 19. Outdoor Unit on
Brackets above Snow Line (Typical)”. · In heavy snow areas, do not place the unit where drifting will occur as illustrated in “Figure 20. Outdoor Unit Air Flow
Obstructed by Snow (Typical)”. · Carefully consider how to manage defrost water disposal to prevent ice from blocking walkways or creating a safety
hazard near the outdoor unit as illustrated in “Figure 21. Avoid Defrost Water Ice Hazard (Typical)”.

Prevailing Winds
Normally wind baffles are not required for a outdoor unit. However, in order to maximize reliability and performance, the following best practices should be followed. If unit coil cannot be installed away from prevailing winter winds, some method of protecting the coil is recommended. However, minimum clearances as reference in “Figure 16. Outdoor Unit Clearances – Inches (mm) – (Typical)” on page 40 must be observed at all times. Common application examples are: · When prevailing winds are from the air inlet side, then
position the wind barrier a minimum of 12 inches (305 mm) from the unit as illustrated in “Figure 22. Wind Barrier”.
· When prevailing wind is into the discharge side, then position the wind barrier a minimum 79 inches (2007 mm) from the front of the unit as illustrated in “Figure 22. Wind Barrier”.
· Outdoor unit can be installed in a dog house style shelter as illustrated in “Figure 23. Dog House-Style Shelter (Typical)”.
· Outdoor unit can be installed in a alcove or under a roof overhang as illustrated in “Figure 24. Unit installed in Alcove (Typical)”.

Buried Refrigerant Pipe Protection
· All refrigerant lines must be insulated regardless of if it is buried.
· In addition to insulating each line of piping, buried lines must rest inside a sealed, watertight conduit.
· The conduit must be designed so it cannot collect and retain water.
Condensate Piping
Condensate formed during the heating and defrost processes must be drained from heat pump units. Drain holes are provided in the base of the units to ensure proper drainage. Heat pumps must be raised when installed on a concrete pad or the ground to allow drainage to occur. If the heat pump unit is installed on wall mounting bracket, insert the provided drain connector into one of the 1 inch (25 mm) drain holes and attached a field-provided insulated drain hose to the connector. Use field-provided rubber plugs to cover any unused drain holes.

Securing the Outdoor Unit
Slab or Roof Mounting Install the unit a minimum of 4 inches (102 mm) above the roof or ground surface to avoid ice build-up around the unit. Place the unit above a load bearing wall or area of the roof that can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes for rooftop applications.

CAUTION
Roof Damage!
This system contains both refrigerant and oil. Some rubber roofing material may absorb oil. This will cause the rubber to swell when it comes into contact with oil. The rubber will then bubble and could cause leaks. Protect the roof surface to avoid exposure to refrigerant and oil during service and installation. Failure to follow this notice could result in damage to roof surface.
Securing Outdoor Unit to Slab, Frame, or Rails
If the outdoor unit is installed on a field-provided slab or frame, use lag bolts or equivalent to secure the outdoor unit to the slab or frame.

Leak Test and Evacuation
This procedure is performed after all connections both plumbing and wiring are completed. Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system will have undesirable effects as indicated below: · Pressure in the system rises.
· Operating current rises.
· Cooling or heating efficiency drops.
· Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze.
· Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigeration system.
The line set between the indoor and outdoor units must be leak tested and evacuated to remove any non-condensables and moisture from the system.

Page 47

Leak Test

Use the following procedure to test for system leaks:
1. Connect the manifold gauge set and dry nitrogen gas cylinder to the liquid and gas service ports.
2. Open valve on nitrogen cylinder. 3. Pressurize the system per the pressure test
specifications in “Table 7. Pressure Test Specifications”. 4. Check that the system pressure remains stable. If
there is any movement check system for leaks. 5. After the system is found to be free of leaks:
· Close valve on nitrogen cylinder.
· Relieve the nitrogen pressure by: loosening the charge hose connector at the nitrogen cylinder.
· When the system pressure is reduced to normal, disconnect the hose from the cylinder.

24 hours. Lower system pressure test, 5 32 470 3241 after confirmation No. 4 was successfully
completed.

Triple Evacuation Procedure
A Micron gauge must be used for this procedure. 1. Discharge the oxygen-free nitrogen and evacuate the
system to a reading of 8000 Microns using all service valves. 2. Break the vacuum by allowing nitrogen into the port connections (liquid and gas line pipes) until a positive pressure is achieved. 3. Evacuate the system to a reading of 5000 Microns. 4. Break the vacuum by allowing nitrogen into the port connections (liquid and gas line pipes) until a positive pressure is achieved. 5. Evacuate the system to a minimum reading of 500 Microns. 6. For a moisture-free system, ensure the vacuum is held without movement for a minimum of 4 hours. 7. If vacuum fails to hold, carry out steps 2 through 6 until vacuum holds.
Unit Start-Up
IMPORTANT
Units should be energized 24 hours before unit start-up to prevent compressor damage as a result of slugging.
1. Inspect all factory and field-installed wiring for loose connections.
2. Verify that the manifold gauge set is connected. 3. Add additional refrigerant charge if required before

opening valves and while system is still under a vacuum. 4. Open the liquid and gas line service valves to release the refrigerant charge contained in outdoor unit into the system. 5. Replace the stem caps and tighten to the value listed in “Table 3. Torque Requirements” on page 40. See “Table 5. Additional Refrigerant Charge (Single Zone)” on page 47 for multi-zone zone applications. 6. Check voltage supply at the outdoor unit terminal strip. The voltage must be within the range listed on the unit’s nameplate. If not, do not start the equipment until you have consulted with the power company and the voltage condition has been corrected. 7. Refer to the included user guide to operate the system using the provided remote control. 8. Visually check for binding of both indoor and outdoor fans.
