All units are mounted on a full curb cap base furnished with four lifting lugs for attaching
rigging. To prevent damage to the cabinet, use spreader bars with the rigging chains.

5.4 Mounting on a
Roof Curb
CAUTION: Before installing curb, recheck to be sure that the
correct curb has been ordered. Be sure that the curb selected
matches the unit ordered. Verify the dimensions of the curb
received with the dimension table in FIGURE 4.
Roof Curb
Dimensions for Model
RDF Series 3
Whether the roof curb is Option CJ3 designed for the system or a eld-supplied curb,
the roof curb dimensions in FIGURE 4 and the ductwork opening dimensions in FIG-
URE 6 apply.
The roof curb designed for the system includes dividers that will create internal duct-
work and duct connection anges for ease of installation and so that the building duc-
twork can be attached before the system is set on the roof curb.
The system is equipped with a load-bearing curb cap which forms an integral part of
the unit. The curb cap provides required clearance from combustibles. Whether the
system is being mounted directly on a surface or being placed "up" on additional struc-
ture, the horizontal length must be supported by two 4x4 treated wooden rails. Refer
to FIGURE 2 for the appropriate lengths and spacing. When the system is placed on
the rails, the curb cap "skirt" must t over the edge of the boards with the rails setting
inside the horizontal length of the curb cap.
If the rails are laid directly on the mounting surface, position them as shown in FIGURE
3. Set the system on the rails leaving the "ends" underneath open for ventilation.
If the wooden rails are not placed directly on a surface, cross-supports should be
placed underneath the rails at the ends and at the cabinet "joint". Refer to FIGURE 3.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Mount an outdoor unit with a minimum of 14" clearance from the
bottom of the inlet air hood to the mounting surface.
