CODES AND REGULATIONS
The DP14CM/DP14HM M-series air conditioners and heat pumps are de-
signed for OUTDOOR USE ONLY. DP14HM M-Series is available in cooling
capacities of 2, 2-1/2, 3, 3-1/2, 4 and 5 nominal tons of cooling. DP14CM M-
Series is available in cooling capacities of 2, 2-1/2, 3, 3-1/2, 4 and 5 nominal
tons of cooling. Optional field installed heat kits are available in 5,8,10,15
and 20 kW. 3 phase heat kits are available only in 15 and 20 kW. The units can
be easily installed in manufactured or modular homes with existing high-
static duct work. The units can also be easily converted to accommodate a
plenum for normal or low-static applications. The DP14CM/DP14HM M-
series are self contained packaged units so the only connections needed
for installation are the supply and return ducts, the line and low voltage
wiring and drain connection. Rated performance is achieved after 72 hours
of operation. Rated performance is delivered at the specified airflow. See
outdoor unit specification sheet for split system models or product speci-
fication sheet for packaged and light commercial models. Specification
sheets can be found at
www.daikincomfort.com for Daikin brand products.
Within the website, please select the residential or commercial prod-
ucts menu and then select the submenu for the type of product to be
installed, such as air conditioners or heat pumps, to access a list of prod-
uct pages that each contain links to that model’s specification sheet.
The information on the rating plate is in compliance with the FTC & DOE
rating for single phase units. The three phase units in this series are not
covered under the DOE certified program. The efficiency ratings of these
units are a product of thermal efficiency determined under continuous
operating conditions independent of any installed system.
EPA REGULATIONS
IMPORTANT: THE UNITED STATES ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY
(EPA) HAS ISSUED VARIOUS REGULATIONS REGARDING THE INTRODUCTION
AND
DISPOSAL OF REFRIGERANTS IN THIS UNIT. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE
REGULATIONS
MAY HARM THE ENVIRONMENT AND CAN LEAD TO THE IMPOSITION
OF
SUBSTANTIAL FINES. BECAUSE REGULATIONS MAY VARY DUE TO PASSAGE OF
NEW
LAWS, WE SUGGEST A CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN PERFORM ANY WORK DONE
ON
THIS UNIT. SHOULD YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE CONTACT THE LOCAL
OFFICE

NATIONAL CODES
This product is designed and manufactured to permit installation in ac-
cordance with National Codes. It is the installer’s responsibility to install
the product in accordance with National Codes and/or prevailing local
codes and regulations.
MAJOR COMPONENTS
The unit includes a hermetically sealed refrigerating system (consisting of
a compressor, condenser coil, evaporator coil with flowrator), an indoor
blower, a condenser fan and all necessary internal electrical wiring. The
heat pump also includes a reversing valve, solenoid, defrost thermostat
and control and loss of charge protection. The system is factory-evacuated,
charged and performance tested. Refrigerant amount and type are indi-
cated on rating plate.
PRE-INSTALLATION CHECKS
Before attempting any installation, the following points should be con-
sidered:
• Structural strength of supporting members
• Clearances and provision for servicing
• Power supply and wiring
• Air duct connections
• Drain facilities and connections
• Location may be on any four sides of a home, manufactured or
modular, to minimize noise
CLEARANCES AND ACCESSIBILITY
The unit is designed to be located outside the building with unobstructed
condenser air inlet and discharge. Additionally, the unit must be situated
to permit access for service and installation. Condenser air enters from
three sides. Air discharges upward from the top of the unit. Refrigerant
gauge connections are made on the right side of the unit as you face the
compressor compartment. Electrical connections can be made either on
the right, bottom or duct panel side of the unit. The best and most com-
mon application is for the unit to be located 10” from wall (4” minimum)
with the connection side facing the wall. This “close to the wall” applica-
tion minimizes exposed wiring.
Close to the wall application assures free, unobstructed air to the other
two sides. In more confined application spaces, such as corners provide a
minimum 12” clearance on all air inlet sides. Allow 36” minimum for
service access to the compressor compartment and controls. The top of
the unit should be completely unobstructed. If units are to be located
under an overhang, there should be a minimum of 48” clearance and
provisions made to deflect the warm discharge air out from the over-
hang.
