Step 1 - Unpack and Inspect Units
Remove shi ppng i wraps from all uns. it Check the
shipment against shipping order. Check for concealed
shipping damage. If shipment is damaged or incomplete, file
claim with transportation company and advise Carrier
Step 2 - Protect Units from Damage
To maintain warranty, protect unit against adverse weather,
theft or vandalism at jobsite.
Step 3 - Prepare Jobsite for Unit Installation
To save time and reduce the possibility of costly errors, set
up a complete sample installation in a typical room at
jobsite. Check all critical dimensions such as pipe, wire and
duct connection requirements. Refer to job drawings and
product dimension drawings as required. Instruct all trades
in their part of the installation
Step 4 - Identify and Prepare Units
1. Be sure unit power requirements match available power
source. Refer to unit nameplate and wiring diagram.
Units are designed for chilled water or hot water (190°F

maximum) only. Unit may be equipped with optional
electric heater. Be sure that the required control
3. Check all tags on unit to determine if shipping screws
are to be removed. Remove screws as directed.
Step 5 - Place Unit in Position
1. Be sure unit is level or pitched towards drain to ensure
proper drainage and operation. (see Fig. 1 and 2.) Pitch
of suspended unit can change after coil is filled; recheck
after filling coil.
Unit weight distribution is not uniform at mounting
points. Suspend unit at factory-provided holes (Fig. 2). If
used, select and adjust vibration isolators so that unit is
uniformly suspended and pitched.
2. Models, with bottom inlet, may be installed in
noncombustible return air spaces only.
Protect units from damage caused by jobsite debris. Do

DRAIN LINE - Install a trapped drain line in accordance with
all applicable codes. Slope drain line away from unit.
drain line to prevent sweating. Drain connections are shown
in Fig. 1 and 2.
WATER SUPPLY/RETURN CONNECTIONS - Maximum
allowable entering hot water temperature is 190°F. Install
piping in accordance with all applicable codes. See Table 1.
Position valves over the drain pan. Be sure valves are in
proper operating position and are easily accessible for
adjustmen
If valves cannot be installed over drain pan, insulate valves
to prevent sweating.
If coil and valve package connections are to be made with a
solder joint, care should be taken to ensure that no
components in the valve package are subjected to a
temperature high enough to damage seals or other
materials. Many 2- position electric control valves have a
manual operating lever. This lever should be in the OPEN
position during all soldering operations.
If coil connection is made with a union, the coil side of the
union must be prevented from twisting (i.e., it should be
“backed up”) during tightening. Do NOT over-tighten!
Over-tightening distorts the union seal surface and destroys
the union.
Steam Connections - On units with steam-heating coils,
the maximum steam pressure applied to the unit should
never exceed 10 psig.
Test And Insulate- When all j oi ns t are compee, l t d
perform hydrostatic test for leaks. Vent all coils at this time.
Check interior unit piping for signs of leakage from shipping
damage or mishandling. If leaks are found, notify a Carrier
representative before initiating any repair. Release trapped
air from system (see Step 9-6).
All water coils must be protected from freezing after
initial filling with water. Even if system is drained, unit
coils may still have enough water to cause damage
when exposed to temperatures below freezing

Following the hydrostatic test, insulate all piping, controls and
valves to unit to prevent sweating.
To ensure compliance with building codes, restore the
structure’s original fire resistance rating by sealing all holes
with material carrying the same fire rating as the structure.
Step 7 - Make Electrical Connections
See unit serial plate for required supply voltage, fan and
heater amperage, and required circuit ampacities. See unit
wiring diagram for unit wiring and field wiring.
The fan motor(s) should never be controlled by any wiring or
device other than the factory-supplied switch or thermostat/
switch combination unless factory authorization has been
obtained. Fan motor(s) may be wired for temporary use
during construction only if: (1) prior factory approval has
been obtained, and (2) wiring and operation are done in strict
accordance with the instructions issued by the factory.

Units with aquastats furnished and installed at the factory
may be shipped with the aquastats mounted on a coil
stubout. If so, remove the aquastat before installing a
valve
p ackae. g When re-installing the aquastats, consult
the
factory piping diagram in the submittals for proper location.
If the valve package is field supplied, the aquastat must be
installed in a location where it will sense the water
temperature regardless of the position of the control valve.
A bleed bypass may be required to ensure proper aquastat
operation.
All field wiring should be done in accordance with governing
codes and ordinances. Any modification of unit wiring
without factory authorization will void all factory warranties
and will nullify any agency listings.
Step 8 - Make Duct Connections
Install all ductwork to and from unit in accordance with all
applicable codes. Duct construction must allow unit to
operate without duct external static pressure limits as
shown on job submittals. Units designed to operate with
ductwork may be damaged if operated without the intended
ductwork attached. Units configured to bring in outside air
should have some method of low temperature protection to
prevent coil freeze-up.
Insulate all ductwork as required. Use flexible connections
to minimize duct --nito u t a lig nmne t p rob lme s and
noise transmission where specified.
 Prevent dust and debris from setting in unit. If wall finish or START-UP
color is to be spray applied, cover all openings to prevent Start-up procedures vary depending upon the time of year
spray from entering unit. (summer or winter) and building characteristics (new
building or old building, occupied or unoccupied, etc.).

Excessive Condensation on Fan Coil Unit Parts
Excessive condensation can be caused by running chilled
water through a fan coil unit with its fan off. Therefore, if fan
cycling control is used, a water flow control valve should be
installed to shut off the water when the fan stops.

The following 2 practices will also help avoid condensation

1. Install thermostat and perform any other final wiring as
applicable.
2. Clean dirt, dust and other construction debris from unit
interior. Be sure to check fan wheel and housing.
3. Rotate fan wheel by hand to be sure it is free and does
not rub housing. Check that nuts securing fan assembly
to fan deck are tight.
POWER ON
4. Turn on unit power. Check fan and motor operation.
5. Be sure drain line is clear and is properly and securely
positioned. Pour water into drain to check operation.
6. Vent all air from unit coil and related piping. If air vent is
manual, release air from system by turning air vent

When steady stream of water begins to escape, close
valve. If air vent is automatic, trapped air will be vented
automatically. Vent releases air slowly, usually dripping
water into drain pan in the process.

1. Continuous fan operation, with motorized chilled water
valve controlled by thermostat.
2. Continuous fan operation, with thermostat control to
switch fan from high to low speed (Instead of switching
it off).
To Clean Coil
1. Be sure electrical disconnect is open, locked and tagged
while working on unit.
2. Remove access panels, grilles or fan deck as required
and brush between coil fins with stiff wire brush. Follow
up by cleaning with vacuum cleaner. If coil is cleaned
with air hose and nozzle, take care not to drive dirt and

unobstructed. Clean heater elements with soft brush or
vacuum cleaner as necessary.
Clean or Replace Air Filters -Lock open and tag unit
electrical disconnect. At the start of each cooling season and
after each month of operation (more or less depending on
operating conditions) replace throwaway filter or clean
permanent filter.
To remove filter, remove unit front panel and slip filter
forward out of filter rack.
PERMANENT FILTER (Fiber Type)
1. Tap on solid surface to dislodge heavy particles.
2. Wash in hot water. If needed, use mild solution of
commercial solvent such as sal soda or trisodium
phosphate.
3. Set filter on end so that water drains out through slots
in frame. Allow filter to dry thoroughly.
4. Recharge filter with Film-Cor or similar recharging oil.
Three ounces is sufficient for medium-size filter. Oil
may be applied by insect spray gun. For easier
spraying, the oil can be warmed. If filter is dipped in
recharging oil, remove it immediately and allow to drain
through slots in frame.
5. Replace filter in unit. Replace unit front panel. If
another type of filter is used, follow filter
