INSTALLATION Inspection of Shipment
Upon receipt of equipment, carefully inspect it for possible
shipping damage. If damage is found, it should be noted on
the carrier’s freight bill. Take special care to examine the
unit inside the carton if the carton is damaged. Any concealed
damage discovered should be reported to the last carrier
immediately, preferably in writing, and should include a
request for inspection by the carrier’s agent. If any damages
are discovered and reported to the carrier DO NOT INSTALL
THE UNIT, as claim may be denied.
Check the unit rating plate to confirm specifications are
as ordered.
Location of Unit
Refer to Figure 1 for installation clearances.
General
Read this entire instruction manual, as well as the
instructions supplied in separate equipment, before
starting the installation. Observe and follow all
warnings, cautions, instructional labels, and tags.
Failure to comply with these instructions could result
in an unsafe condition and/or premature component
failure.
These instructions are intended as a general guide only for
use by qualified personnel and do not supersede any national
or local codes in any way. The installation must comply with
all provincial, state, and local codes as well as the National
Electrical Code (U.S.) or Canadian Electrical Code (Canada).
Compliance should be determined prior to installation.
4AC16LT condensing units use R410A which is an ozone-
friendly HFC refrigerant. The unit must be installed with a
matching indoor coil and line set. 4AC16LT units are
designed for use in expansion valve (TXV) systems only. A
filter drier approved for use with R410A is installed in the
unit.
IMPORTANT: This product has been designed and
manufactured to meet ENERGY STAR criteria for energy
efficiency when matched with appropriate coil components.
However, proper refrigerant charge and proper air flow are
critical to achieve rated capacity and efficiency. Installation
of this product should follow the manufacturer’s refrigerant
charging and air flow instructions. Failure to confirm proper
charge and airflow may reduce energy efficiency and
shorten equipment life.
When servicing or repairing HVAC components, ensure the
fasteners are appropriately tightened. Table 1 shows torque
values for fasteners.

Slab Mounting
When installing a unit at grade level, install on slab high
enough above grade so that water from higher ground will
not collect around the unit (See Figure 2).
Roof Mounting
Install unit at a minimum of 4” above surface of the roof.
Care must be taken to ensure weight of unit is properly
distributed over roof joists and rafters. Either redwood or
steel supports are recommended.
