4. Place the top of the fan coil unit up to 10 ft above floor
level, making sure the unit is at least 10 in. down from
the ceiling to permit proper air intake. Also, make sure
that the unit is not placed directly over anything to prevent filter removal or block airflow.

Once the piping is through the wall, it can run inside
walls, in ceilings, between floors, or straight to the
outside.
NOTE: Run refrigerant piping as directly as possible,
and avoid any unnecessary turns or bends.
7. Condensate piping can be directed through the inside
wall to an approved drain, or directed straight outside.
NOTE: The piping hole for the condensate line must
be sloped downward to ensure proper drainage.
See Tables 5A-5F for maximum line length.

5. Make sure units are easily accessible to electrical
power.
6. Refrigerant piping can enter the unit through the
prepunched holes. Refrigerant piping cml run up or

Refrigerant Piping

Step 3 -- Attach Mounting Bracket to Wall
1. Decide how the refrigerant wilt be piped. It'necessary,
knock out the appropriate pre-punched holes (Fig. 4)
on the unit for piping and electrical connections.
2. Remove the bracket from the fan coil unit.
3. Using a carpenter's level, fasten the mounting brackets
into the studs in the wall at least 10 in. away from the
ceiling with the 8 screws provided. Always be sure to
insert screws into the top 2 holes indicated in Fig. 5.
Make sure the attached bracket will support a 200 lb
vertical load. For a masonry wall, anchor shields can
be used to attach the bracket to the wall.

If mounting bracket is not mourned level, the indoor section
will be mounted unevenly, and condensate drainage water
may drip onto the floor. Also, a gap between the bracket and
the wall may result in vibration mid noise from the iMoor
section.
Mark and cut condensate and piping holes.
a. For piping through the wall, mark the wall below
the condensate connection and cut a 2t/2-in. hole
into the wall at either point "A" or point "B" in
Fig. 6.
NOTE: The 21/2-in. hole must be made at a do,amward
slope to ensure proper condensate drainage. See Fig. 7.
Slope the condensate line at a minimum pitch of 1/4-in.
per foot of line. The condensate line cannot be mn up
for upper piping connections
only refrigerant lines
may be mn up.
b. Push the wall sleeve (factory supplied with the
unit) through the 21/2-in. wall opening.
Step 4 -- Connect Refrigerant Piping -- Fan coil
units may be connected to the outdoor units using field-supplied
refrigerant grade piping. Refer to Tables 5A-5F for the correct
size piping. The length of reffigermlt pipe depends on the unit
placement and building structure; mn pipes as directly as possible. For piping requirelnents over 50 ft of total ran, or more
than 25 ft of lift, consult the long line application guidelines, or
contact your local representative. For multi-split systems, the
maximum pipe length is 50 ft.

DO NOT BURY MORE THAN 36 IN. OF REFRIGERANT PIPE IN THE GROUND. If any section of pipe is
buried, there must be a 6-in. vertical rise to the valve connections on the outdoor unit. If more than the recolrnnended
length is buried, refiigerant may mi_ate to the cooler, buried section during extended periods of unit shutdown, causing reffigermlt slugging and possible colnpressor dmnage at
start-up.

Fig. 5 -- Bracket Mounting

Use the following instructions to connect piping.
1. Install insulation. Insulate all refrigerant
lines on
heat pumps and multi-split systems to prevent condensation. It is extremely important that all refrigerant
lines and the AccuRater,¢<)metering device be insulated
on heat pumps. On cooling only units, the liquid line
may be left uninsulated. Use any acceptable heat resistant, closed-celt foam insulation (minimum 3/s-in. wall
thickaless). When insulating piping, cap the ends and
slide insulation over the piping. Insulation can also be
cut and placed over piping.
2. Run the liquid and gas refrigerant piping.
a. Run pipes as directly as possible, and avoid any
unnecessary turns and bends.
b. Suspend the refrigerant pipes so that the insulation is not damaged
and vibrations
are not
transmitted to the structure.
c. Leave slack in the refrigerant pipe between the
structure and the unit to absorb vibrations.
d. Install the factory-supplied flare connection and
AccuRater metering device in the liquid line at the
fan coil unit (Fig. 8). Make sure the arrow on the
metering device body points AWAY FROM the
fan coil unit. Use Table 7 to verily that the correct
piston for your system has been shipped with the
unit.

NOTE: No AccuRater
device is installed on
multi-split systems. Multi-split systems have a
TXV (thermostatic expansion valve) in the condensing unit for refrigerant
metering
and
control.
e. On heat pump installations, install the factorysupplied piston in the AccuRater metering device
located in the service valve on the outdoor unit
(Fig. 9). Make sure the Teflon seal on the piston
faces toward the outdoor unit. Use Table 7 to verify the correct piston for your system has been
shipped with the unit. Refer to the outdoor installation instructions for more details.
f. Install a field-supplied liquid line filter drier near
the outdoor unit. On heat pump systems, a bi-flow
filter drier must be used. DO NOT install a filter
drier in multi-split systems.
3. Insulate and caulk the wall openings to reduce air infiltration and refrigerant pipe vibrations on the structure.
4. Evacuate the piping, if necessary. If either the refrigerant piping or the indoor coil is exposed to atmospheric
conditions, it must be evacuated to 1000 microns to
eliminate contamination and moisture in the system.

ControlSystem --The

indoor unit is equipped with a
microprocessor control which operates the system. This control
is located in the control box of the fan coil unit, with thermistors located in the thn coil inlet and on the indoor coil. The
heat pump fan coil units also have thermistors on the outdoor
coil and in the outdoor air inlet. These thermistors monitor system operation and control the operating mode. To change settings or operation modes, use the fiactory-supplied inliared
wireless remote controller. This controller allows the fan coil
unit to operate fiom within the same room without any wire
connections to the unit.
WIRELESS REMOTE CONTROLLERS
A wireless remote controller is supplied for system operation of all hi_l wall
units. Each battery-operated wireless (inliared) remote controller may be used to control more than one unit. The wireless
relnote controller has a maximum range of 20 feet. The fan coil
unit is equipped with an emeNency switch which allows operation if the remote contxoller malfunctions or is misplaced.
Because the controller uses inliared communication, all of the
following must be true for the controller to work properly:

Adjusting AirflowThe airflow direction may be adjusted up and down using the remote controller tlap button, and
ftom side to side by manually moving the vents. For cooling
only units and heat pump units when in the cooling mode, set
the louvers to dischaige straight out (parallel to the floor) (see
Fig. 18). For the heat pump units operating in heating 1node, it
is recommended that the air discharge louvers be set to discharge vertically (see Fig. 18).

*Potential range.
1-Desirable range.
NOTE: The unit is equipped with manual air vents that direct the air
from side to side. Up and down louver motion can be selected using
the remote controller. For maximum comfort, set louvers within the
swing range. See the Adjusting Airflow section on this page for more
information.

Fig. 18 -- Louver Adjustments

The swing range shown in Fig. 18 is the range that provides
maxilnum occupant comfort in each mode. It is recolmnended
that the louvers be positioned within this range (using the
relnote controller).
NOTE: The full swing range for the mode selected will automatically be used if auto. tan mode is selected.

• Heat Pump Heating Mode (Heat Pump Systems Only)
When the Heat Pump mode is selected, the indoor tan
will operate at the selected speed if the speed is high,
medium, or low, unless overridden by the coil temperature (to prevent cold drafts). If the indoor fan is in Auto.
mode, the tan will change operating speeds depending on
the difference between the room temperature, the set
point, and the coil telnperature. The reversing valve will
be deenergized. The compressor cannot run for 3 minutes
fiom the time the system starts up or for 3 minutes fiom
the time it last operated. When the telnperature of the
room is 8 F below the selected telnperature, the unit wilt
operate in Heat Pmnp mode until the telnperature is 6 F
above the selected telnperature, or the compressor runs
for 40 minutes (whichever comes first). If the temperature of the room is less than 7 F below or equal to the
selected telnperature, the unit operates in Heat Pmnp
mode until the selected set point telnperature plus 2 F is
reached.
• Electric Heat in Heat Pump Heating Mode
Supplemental electric heat is enabled when the outside air thermistor located in the outdoor unit is below 40 F and the
room telnperature therlnistor is equal to or less than 6 F
below set point. Electric heat will remain on until 2 F
above set point, then will turn off. Fan operation will be
the same as described previously in the heat pmnp heating mode.
NOTE: Electric heat control cannot be overridden.

Operating Mode Memory -- After the system is turned
offor after a power failure, the system relnains in the last operating mode selected. When the system is turned back on, or
when power is automatically restored, operation continues in
the same operating 1node as when the power shut down.
Automatic Operation (Auto) Mode-If auto mode
is selected, the system automatically switches the operating
mode from heating (heat pump system only) to cooling, or
fiom cooling to heating (heat pmnp system only) depending on
the selected telnperature.
NOTE: Between the cooling cycle and the heating cycle there
is a neutral zone of approximately 2 F above and 2 F below the
selected temperature, when only the tan is operating.
Operating Fault Diagnosis -- The system includes an
automatic diagnosis feature that activates uMer difficuh or
unacceptable operating conditions. It"such conditions occur,
the system stops automatically, the operating fauh signal
appears (geen "UNIT ON" light on the fiont of the tan coil
unit flashes), and an analysis of the system operating coMitions is initiated. If the system does not start again, the _een
"UNIT ON" light will flash an error code.

• Demand Defrost Mode (Heat Pump Systems Only)
This unit uses a demand defrost system to remove fiost
froln the outdoor coil during heating operation. The
indoor and outdoor fans are shut off during Defrost
mode. See Fig. 19. For high wall heat pump units, the
electric heat is OFF during Defrost mode.
• Set Back
The Set Back mode timer turns the unit off
when the timer reaches zero minutes. The durations that
can be selected are 1, 2, 3 or 7 hours. After the initial
30 minutes, the user set point shifts approximately 1° F
warmer. This sequence repeats itself every 40 minutes up
to a total of 150 minutes. When Set Back mode is
enabled, the display on the remote controller is dimmed.
• On/Off Timer Mode
The on!off timer will turn the
unit on or offat a user selectable on and offtime (this is
one time event only). The unit will start in the same
mode and at the same selected temperature as when the
system
shut off. If the rooln temperature is not within
approximately 5 F of the set point 40 minutes before
start-up, the unit runs before the user selected on time is
reached to achieve the set point temperature at start-up.
• Automatic Operation Mode for Cooling Only Systems
The unit samples the air in the room. Based on the
room temperature, the unit selects one of the t\_ltowing
modes:
1. Cooling Mode
If the room telnperature is more than
82 F with a preset telnperature of 79 F.
2. Dry Mode
If the room temperature is more than
75 F and less than 82 F with a preset temperature of
77 F.

Microprocessor
Control Operation-This system
is controlled by a microprocessor designed to give optilnum
levels of comfort and operating ei_ciency. The control is located in the indoor unit. To operate the unit, the thctory-supplied
relnote controller is required.
There are 9 (cooling only) or 12 (heat pump) operating
modes (including the offmode) for the unit. Each ll_lodeoperates as follows:
• Off Mode
When the unit is in the Offlnode, all functions (compressor, outdoor tan, indoor fan, and air
sweep) are oft; except the reversing valve (heat pump
only), which will stay energized if the unit was last operated in the Cooling mode.
• Air Circulation Mode (Fan Operation Only)
When
Air Circulation mode is selected, the indoor fan wilt
operate continuously at the selected speed (high,
medium, low, or Auto.). If the Auto. mode is selected,
the indoor tan will operate at low speed. The compressor
and outdoor fan are off. The reversing valve (heat pump
only) will remain in the last operating mode.
• Cooling Mode
When the Cooling mode is selected,
the indoor tan will operate continuously at the selected
speed if the speed is high, medium, or low. If the indoor
fan is in Auto. mode, the tim will change operating
speeds depending on the difference between the room
temperature and the set point. The reversing valve (heat
pmnp only) will be energized. The compressor cannot
run for 3 minutes from the time the system starts up or
for 3 minutes from the time the compressor last operated.
When the temperature of the room is equal to or _eater
than the selected telnperature, the colnpressor and outdoor fan will operate until the room temperature is 2 F
below the set point, and then shut ofl, When the room
temperature is less than the selected telnperature, the
compressor and outdoor tan remain oft'. Indoor Pan runs
according to selected mode.
• Dehumidification
Mode
When the Dehumidification
mode is selected the indoor tan will operate at a speed
and setting selected by the microprocessor. There is no
user interface with this mode.

CLEANING

AND MAINTENANCE

Replace the remote controller batteries when the remote
controller function becomes irregular, or the system no longer
responds to commmlds given close to the unit.
When shutting down the system for an extended period of
time, it is advisable to remove the batteries from the remote
controller.

To avoid the possibility of electric shock, before performing
aaly cleaning and maintenance operations, always turn off
power to the system by pressing the ON/OFF button on the
remote controller. Turn off the outdoor disconnect switch
located near the outdoor unit. It'the indoor unit is on a separate switch, be sure it is also disconnected.

Consult your distributor if any other equipment is turned on
or shows signs of disrupted operation if you use the wireless remote controller, or if the system is mined on or shows signs of
disrupted operation when the remote controller of aaly other
equipment is used.
To Set the Current

For proper system operation, perform the cleaning and
maintenance operations listed in Table 10.

1. Press the [_ button (located on the front of the
remote controller; see Fig. 22) with an instrument
screwdriver or similar small, pointed tool, and the current time indication symbol flashes.

through.

Do not drop the remote controller
daanage to the device
may result. Avoid getting the controller wet.

3. When you reach the current time, press [-_ again.
The flashing will stop and the current time will be
reset to the new setting.

NOTE: Betbre replacing the batteries, note that the remote controller signal can be affected if electronic fluorescent lights are
installed nearby. The batteries may not need to be replaced. If
you suspect this is the problem, consult your distributoi:
Batteries should be replaced once a year. Use 2 batteries
(1.5 v, de-type, AAA alkaline batteries). Never use old or
rechaNed batteries together with new ones.
To replace batteries:
1. Slide the battery cover off from the back of the remote
controller. See Fig. 21.
2. Insert the 2 batteries in accordance with the markings
on the remote controller, so that the poles are correct
(+ and 3.
3. Replace the cover securely.

To Remove

and Clean or Replace

Air Filters

Operating your system with dirty air filters may damage the
indoor unit and can also cause reduced cooling perfurmance, intermittent system operation, frost build-up on the
indoor coil, and blown fuses. Inspect and clean or replace
the air filters momhl3'.
TO REMOVE AIR FILTERS
1. Open the tan coil unit front panel (lift). See Fig. 23.
2. Pull the tilters down to remove.

4. Press the _
button on the fiont of the remote usin_
an instrnmen_screwdriver

TO CLEAN OR REPLACE FILTERS
Filters should be
vacuumed and ,a_ashedwith warm water (see Fig. 23). Shake
the tilter to remove any excess ,a_atei; dry it thoroughly, and
replace it by sliding the tilter behind fiont gille until the tilter
snaps in place.
If the filter has bemm to break down or is tom, it needs to
be replaced. Replacement tilters are available through your
distributor.

To Clean Indoor Coil -- To clean the coil, remove the
indoor unit front panel, and vacuum the coil fins. Use care not
to bend or dmnage fins.
To Clean Outdoor

Unit)

Some metal parts and sharp fins of unit coil can cause personal injury during cleaning. Clean coil carefully.

To Clean Indoor Unit Front PanelIf the fiont panel of the unit becomes dirty or smudged, wipe the outside of the
tlront panel with a soft dry cloth. If necessary, use a mild liquid
deteIgent and wipe off carefully with a dry cloth.

To clean the outdoor coil:
1. Remove any dirt or obstruction from the discharge
opening.
2. Use a garden hose to spray water on the coil. Debris
that collects between coil fins inhibits heat transfer
direct the water spray between coil fins to flush out
debris.

When cleaning the fiont panel, NEVER use water hotter
than 105 F, and DO NOT pour water onto the tan coil unit.
Do not use abrasive or petroleum-based cleaners
damage to unit appearance will result.

SERVICE

System TestsThe system tests listed below are performed continuously by the microprocessor. If a fault is indicated, then the system allows only lhnited operation until the
probleln is resolved. If the problem resolves itsel£ then the
code is cleared and operation resumes.

When servicing unit, turn off all electric power to unit to
avoid shock hazard or injury tiom rotating parts.

THERMISTOR TESTS
Each thermistor is tested tbr high
limit out of range (shorted coMition) and low limit out of range
(open condition). If the thermistor is out of range, the fault stares indicator comes on mid the green LED flashes the appropriate fault code.

Do not vent refrigerant to atmosphere when servicing unit.
Recover reliigerant during system repair or unit relnoval.

THERMISTORS
Proper thermistor location and correct
temperature sensing are ca-iticatto unit operation. Good thennat
contact is also required. Thermistor cable asselnblies are provided with fro1coil units to run between indoor mid outdoor
units. High-voltage mid thermistor cable assemblies should not
touch each other, and cable runs may be extended up to
200 feet. With the unit running, the thermistor integrity may be
checked by measuring the d.c. voltage across the two thermistor connections. Approximate telnperamre is iMicated in
Table 12.

Diagnostic Codes -- This unit is equipped with a microprocessor control that continuously monitors the unit's operation. If an operational fault is detected, a fault is indicated by
the flashing green "UNIT ON" light on the tiont of the t'mlcoil
unit. The control wilt continue to monitor the unit and, if the
coMitions that cause the thult are cleared, the unit wilt return to
normal operation. If the thult code is present for 5 cycles of the
unit, the unit will be locked out and the alarm indicated by the
flashing green "UNIT ON" light on the front of the tan coil
unit.

System

To access the red LED iMicator light, remove the tiont cover of the unit by relnoving the 3 screws holding it in place.
If the red LED indicator light continuously flashes on tbr
one secoM, then off for one secoM, the control is lhnctioning
properly. Table 11 lists the number of quick flashes and the
associated thult. If the system does not operate, and the LED
indicator does not flash, either the power to the control board is
oil; or the control board has tailed.

mode, then this test indicates ml indoor tan thiture. Also, if the
iMoor tan rpm is greater than 1700 rpm for 30 seconds, then
this test indicates ml indoor tan failure.
COMPRESSOR SHORT-CYCLING PROTECTION
There
is a 3-minute time delay between compressor turning off and
taming back on.
INDOOR COIL FREEZE PROTECTION (Cooling or Dehumidification Mode Only)
If the indoor coil temperature is
less than or equal to 32 F for 10 minutes after the compressor
has started, then the compressor and outdoor tan are mined oil"
The indoor tan continues to run at the user-selected speed until
the indoor coil reaches 44 F. At that time, the colnpressor and
outdoor fan will restart.
INDOOR COIL HIGH-TEMPERATURE
PROTECTION
(Heat Pump Systems Only)
If the indoor coil temperature
is greater than or equal to 135 F, the outdoor fan shuts down.
The outdoor tan will restart automatically when the indoor
coil temperature drops to 120 F.
