Installation Guidelines

Professional installation required. Site preparation and component placement considerations.

  1. Outdoor unit placement: Minimum 12 inches clearance on all sides, level concrete pad
  2. Indoor unit mounting: Secure to structure, proper drainage slope
  3. Ductwork installation: Proper sizing, sealed connections, adequate insulation
  4. Refrigerant line routing: Correct sizing, proper insulation, minimal bends
  5. Electrical connections: Proper voltage, dedicated circuit, correct wire sizing

WARNING! Installation must be performed by qualified HVAC technician. Incorrect installation may void warranty and create safety hazards.

Initial Setup & Commissioning

System startup and configuration procedures.

  1. Power verification: Confirm correct voltage and phase
  2. Refrigerant charge: Verify proper charge level and system pressure
  3. Airflow measurement: Check CFM through each supply register
  4. Thermostat programming: Set temperature ranges and schedules
  5. System testing: Run through all operating modes and safety checks

CAUTION! Only certified technicians should handle refrigerant and perform system commissioning.

Technical Specifications

Control System Operation

Thermostat functions and system mode operations.

Basic Controls: POWER, MODE (Cool/Heat/Fan/Auto), TEMPERATURE SET, FAN SPEED (Auto/Low/Med/High)

Advanced Features: Programmable scheduling, filter reminder, system status display, error codes, remote access capability, energy usage monitoring, humidity control, zone damper control (if equipped).

Ductwork Requirements

Proper duct system design and installation specifications.

  1. Duct sizing: Calculate based on system capacity and room requirements
  2. Material selection: Galvanized steel, flex duct, or fiberboard
  3. Insulation: Minimum R-6 for unconditioned spaces
  4. Sealing: Mastic or foil tape on all connections
  5. Register placement: Strategic locations for optimal air distribution

Tip: Proper duct design is critical for system efficiency and performance.

Maintenance Procedures

Routine maintenance schedule and procedures.

  1. Monthly: Check and replace air filters as needed
  2. Quarterly: Clean condenser coil, check drain line
  3. Annually: Professional inspection and service
  4. Seasonal: System startup and shutdown procedures
  5. Biannual: Ductwork inspection and cleaning

WARNING! Disconnect power before performing any maintenance. Electrical components contain hazardous voltage.
