Air Filter

All indoor return air must be filtered before it passes through 

the  evaporator  coil.  A  permanent-type  filter  is  furnished 

with the unit, located directly in front of evaporator coil. 

Removing the front panel permits access to the filter.

The filter should be cleaned at least once during each of 

the heating and cooling seasons and more frequently if 

unusual dusty conditions are encountered. To clean the 

permanent  filter,  shake  the  filter  to  remove  excess  dirt 

and/or use a vacuum cleaner. Wash the filter in soap or 

detergent water and re-install after filter is dry.

The filter supplied need not be oiled after washing.

If an installation is made in which it is more desirable to 

mount the filter exterior to the unit, in the return duct work 

or  otherwise,  the  permanent  filter  supplied  can  be  used 

or a disposable filter may be used. If a disposable filter is 

used, the minimum area required is as shown in Table 1.

Ductwork

Provide  ductwork  sufficiently  large  to  handle  the  larger 

of the air volumes for heating or cooling provided by this 

model.

Connect supply duct to top of unit using canvas connection 

or other flexible connection to prevent noise transmission 

into the duct system.

To connect the return duct to the unit, use a straight piece 

of duct 22” wide by 6” deep.

Insert the duct into the opening in the bottom of the unit 

and flange the duct over the existing flanges around the 

opening inside the unit. Make sure that all sides of the duct 

are flanged over to permit removal of the cooling chassis if 

required. Use a flexible connection to attach the remainder 

of the return ductwork.

Operation

Operation of this unit is automatic and will provide heating 

or cooling depending on the setting of the thermostat.

Heating

1.  Turn on the main power supply.
2.  Set the thermostat system switch to “HEAT”.
3.  Set the thermostat heating scale to the temperature 

desired.

Cooling

1.  Set the thermostat system to “COOL”.

2.  Set the thermostat cooling scale to the temperature 

desired.

Blower Operation

Continuous operation of the air handling blower will be 

obtained if the thermostat fan switch is set to “ON”.

With the thermostat switch set to “AUTO”, the air handling 

blower will cycle corresponding with the thermostat cycling.

To Shut Down Unit

For temporary or short periods of shutdown, set the 

thermostat system switch to “OFF”. For a prolonged period 

of shutdown, set the thermostat system switch to “OFF” 

and turn off the electrical power supply.

Blower

The unit contains a direct drive, multi-speed blower motor. 

The proper speed has been set at the factory. Refer to the 

wiring diagram on the unit for proper wiring connections.

Adjustments

No adjustments are required or should be attempted 

regarding any of the components of the cooling chassis 

and electric heating section.

The unit should be checked to see that none of the wiring is 

loose or missing. The plug-in electrical connector between 

the cooling chassis and the main control compartment 

should  be  checked  to  make  sure  that  the  plug  is  firmly 

seated and none of the wires are loose.
