Step 2 — Make Air Connections

  1. Remove end plug from shipping position. Do not discard. See Fig. 5.
  2. Air connections:
    Apply sealer (3M Scotch Seal 800 or equivalent) to end plug and air transition fitting. Install plug and fitting to plenum connection. Connect duct to transition fitting; seal connection with duct sealer. See Fig. 5.

CAUTION
Excessive duct sealer may interfere with damper movement. After applying sealer, check damper for free travel by rotatin g adjusting screw (See Step 8 — Balance System on page 7) with 1/8 in. Allen wrench.

  1. Check that all tubing connections are tight.

Step 3 — Connect Piping

  3. Locate piping as shown in Fig. 6. Piping may run behin d 36S units.
  4. Connect water lines to coil. (Bottom coil connection is recommended for supply.)
  5. Use soft or silver solder, if required, for coil connections.
  6. Level condensate pan; straighten strap. If drainable condensate pan in used, connect to drain line. Pitch drain line for adequate flow.
  7. Insulate water and drain lines if required. Install service valves between runouts and water control valves.
  8. Compress coil end covers slightly and insert between coi l end flanges, with solid (unnotched) side on forward coi l flange. Install coil end covers on 36SV, 36SD only.
  9. Install lint screen against coil, securing to flange with clips provided. Install 2 lint screens on 36ST.

Step 4 — Install Accessory Grilles (if supplied, on furred-in or custom enclosure installations)
