4.5 Ductwork
This air handler is designed for a complete supply and return ductwork system.
Do not operate the unit without all ductwork completed.
Do not operate this product without all ductwork attached.
Inadequate ductwork that restricts airflow can result in improper performance and
compressor or heater failure. ductwork is to be constructed in a manner that limits
restrictions and maintains suitable air velocity. ductwork is to be sealed to the unit in a
manner that will prevent leakage.
Return ductwork: Do not terminate the return ductwork in an area that can
introduce toxic, or objectionable fumes/odors into the ductwork. The return ductwork is
to be introduced into the air handler bottom (up flow configuration).
Return Air Filters: Each installation must include a return air filter. This filtering may
be performed at the air handler or externally such as a return air filter grille.
