Engineering Manual

Horizontal Installation
• Units may be installed in horizontal left or horizontal right con-
figuration. Horizontal left is the factory default configuration. For
horizontal right, the unit must be field converted. The horizontal
right conversion requires removing the internal drain pan from the
left side of the unit and reinstalling on the right side. No conver-
sion kit is required. Refer to the installation manual for details.
• Units must be installed so that the access panels face to the side,
not facing up or down.
• Installation must be in accordance with all relevant building
codes, which may necessitate the installation of an external
condensate pan (position the unit in or above the external con-
densate pan).
• If the units are going to be suspended, use angled steel support
brackets with threaded rods to provide support from the bottom.
The brackets / threaded rods should be comparatively bigger /
longer than the unit, and each must be centered on the part of
the frame it supports.
• If the unit will not be suspended, use angled steel support
brackets, but also add vibration isolators (field supplied) to avoid
sound transmission. If necessary, provide the installing contrac-
tor with an illustration of where the vibration isolator should be
added and how it should be positioned.
• Unit must be positioned properly for plenum / duct installation.
• Plenum must be strong and secure enough to support the instal-
lation of adapter collars to accommodate duct work.
To ensure proper drainage for horizontal installations, unit must be
installed within ±1/8 inches level of the unit’s length and width.
