INSTALLATION
Procedure 1 -- Inspect Equipment
File claim with shipper if equipment is damaged or incomplete.
Procedure 2 -- Select Installation
For upflow application follow:
A. Upflow CAPMP/CARMP Coil Installation.
See Table 1 for dimensions. Note instructions for placement of coil
casing on furnace.
For downflow application follow-:
B. Downflow CAPMP/CARMP Coil Installation.
For horizontal application follow-:
C. Horizontal CAPMP/CARMP ('oil Installation.
Procedure 3 -- Installation of Evaporator Coils
A. Upflow CAPMP/CARMP Cased ('oil Installation
The cased coil is designed to fit furnaces of the same width.
1. Set coil in place on upflow furnace discharge air opening.
2. Ensure coil is level for proper condensate drainage. Do not
tip coil toward condensate drain. Coil casing need not be
fastened or screwed to furnace.
3. When installing wider coil on narrow furnace, create field
fabricated adapter. (See Fig. 2.)
4. When installing narrow coil on wide furnace, create field
fabricated adapter. (See Fig. 2.)
NOTE: On up flow installations where the indoor coil is placed in
an unconditioned space, a 6" (152 mm) wide piece of insulation
should be applied and wrapped around the outside of coil casing
and supply duct contact point.
B. Downflow CAPMP/CARMP Cased Coil Installation
IMPORTANT: Installing "A" coils rotated 90 ° from the front of
the furnace in downflow applications can cause water blow off or
coil freeze up. This is due to the concentration of air on one coil
slab or lack of air on the opposite coil slab. If the airflow is high
due to ductwork or other causes, and there is a chance for water
blow off. it is recommended that a 3" (76 mm) field-supplied
adapter be placed between the coil and the furnace to allow the air
to distribute evenly to both coil slabs. (See Fig. 3.)

Procedure 5-- Connect Refrigerant, Liquid, and
Suction Lines
For matched and mismatched systems, use line sizes recommended
in outdoor unit Installation Instructions.
The coil can be connected to outdoor units using accessory tubing
packages or field-supplied tubing of refrigerant grade. Always
evacuate tubing and reclaim refrigerant when making connections
or flaring tubing. Leak check connections before insulating entire
suction line.
See Table 1 for coil connection tube size.
1. Remove cabinet door. Remove tubing plate with rubber
grommets and slide plate with grommets onto the
refrigerant lines (field line-set), away from braze joints.
2. Remove rubber plugs from coil stubs using a pulling and
twisting motion. Hold coil stubs steady to avoid bending or
distorting.
3. Wrap TXV and nearby tubing with a heat-sinking material
such as a wet cloth.
4. Fit refrigerant lines into coil stubs. Wrap a heat sinking
material such as a wet cloth behind braze joints.
5. Braze using a Sil-Fos or Phos-copper alloy.
6. After brazing, allow joints to cool. Slide tubing plate with
rubber grommets over joints. Position tubing at center of
each grommet to ensure an air seal around the tube.
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product damage.
To avoid valve damage to the refrigerant control device while I
brazing, valves must be wrapped with a heat-sinking material
such as a wet cloth.
REFRIGERANT METERING DEVICE
CAPM Models:
These Coils have a factory installed hard shut-off TXV designed
only for use with R-410A refrigerant. Use only with outdoor units
designed for R-410A.
CARM Models:
These Coils have a factory installed hard shut-off TXV designed
only for use with R-22 refrigerant. Use only with outdoor units
designed for R-22.
NOTE: All TXV'S have preset superheat settings and are field
non-adjustable.
Procedure 6 -- Make Condensate Line
Connection
The coil is designed to dispose of accumulated water through
built-in condensate drain fitting. Two 3/4" female threaded pipe
connections are provide in each coil.
Install a trap in condensate line of coil, as close to the coil as
possible. Make trap at least 3" (76 ram) deep and not higher than
bottom of unit condensate drain opening. (See Fig. 8.) Pitch
condensate line to open drain or sump.
NOTE: The unit is shipped from the factory with the horizontal
drain connections capped as for vertical installations. For
horizontal installations, remove the caps and place them on the
vertical drain connections to keep an airtight installation.
NOTE: If unit is located in or above a living space where damage
may result from condensate overflow, a field-supplied, external
condensate pan should be installed under the entire unit, and a
secondary condensate line (with appropriate trap) should be run
from the unit into the pan. Any condensate in this external
condensate pan should be drained to a noticeable place. As an
alternative to using an external condensate pan, some localities
may allow the running of a separate 3/4" (19 mm) condensate line
(with appropriate trap) per local code to a place where the
condensate will be noticeable. The owner of the structure must be
informed that when condensate flows from secondary drain or
external condensate pan, the unit requires servicing or water
damage will occur.
NOTE: To avoid drainage problems, test the primary drain line by
slowly pouring water into the pan. Check piping for leaks and
proper condensate drainage. Using the secondary drain as
explained in the previous note provides future protection against
overflow due to a clogged primary drain.
NOTE: In applications where return air humidity levels stay at
70% or above for a prolonged period of time, condensation can
form on the bottom of pan and drip.

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product damage.
DO NOT BURY MORE THAN 36" (914 mm) OF
REFRIGERANT TUBING IN GROUND. If any section of
tubing is buried, there must be a 6" (152 mm) vertical rise to the
valve connections on the outdoor unit. If more than the
recommended length is buried, refrigerant may migrate to cooler
buried section during extended periods of unit shutdown,
causing refrigerant slugging and possible compressor damage at
start-up.
