INSTALLATION
EHD Coils are designed to be used for air conditioning or
heat pump operation within horizontal runs of HVAC ductwork. The ductwork may be a new or existing system, associated with a furnace, air handler, blower cabinet, or
other air moving device. Air can flow in either direction
through the coil.

gas or oil furnace, a Fossil Fuel Kit must be used. This
coordinates heat properly between furnace and heat
pump. Refer to Product Specification Literature for kit part
number.

Verify that the ductwork is suitable for cooling operation.
Externally insulated ductwork must have an adequate vapor barrier. The vapor barrier prevents condensation from
forming in the insulating material, which would result in
loss of insulating value and deterioration of the insulation
material.
NOTE for Heat Pump with Electric Heat: When coil is
used in a Heat Pump application with electric heat, coil
must be installed upstream of the electric heater (refer to
Figure 1). This prevents electric heat from driving up refrigeration system pressure during heating cycle.
NOTE for Gas or Oil Furnace: When coil is used in an
Air Conditioning or Heat Pump application combined
with a gas or oil furnace, coil must be installed downstream of the furnace heat exchanger (refer to Figure 1).
This reduces condensate formation in the furnace heat
exchanger during the cooling cycle.
NOTE for Heat Pump with Gas or Oil Furnace: When
coil is used in a Heat Pump application combined with a

2.

If the connecting ductwork is larger or smaller than
the coil casing openings, fabricate transition pieces.
NOTE: Make the transition pieces long enough so
that the angle from horizontal is 30 ° or less (refer to
Figure 1).
Provide at least 3 feet of straight duct immediately
before the inlet to the coil (refer to Figure 1).

3.

Position coil so that it slopes slightly (Ys")towards
the condensate drain openings.

4.

Support coil either with braces from underneath, or
with hangers from above.
Position fasteners
(screws) so that they will not contact the coil tubing.

METERING

DEVICE

EHD2X 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.
EHD4X 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.
TXV is factory set and not field adjustable.

CONDENSATE

If coil is located in or above a living space where damage
may result from condensate overflow, a separate 3_,,drain
must be provided from secondary (overflow) drain connection. Run this drain to a place in compliance with local
installation codes where it will be noticed when unit is operational. Condensate flowing from secondary (overflow)
drain indicates a plugged primary drain - unit requires
service or water damage will occur.

2.

Failure to follow this caution may result in product
damage.
This Coil has a hard shut-off TXV metering device.
A compressor Hard Start Kit is required in all applications where the matching outdoor unit has a
single-phase reciprocating compressor.

DRAIN

Coil is provided with two 3_,,NPT condensate drain connections. The connection with the larger internal opening is the primary drain, and the connection with the
smaller internal opening is the secondary (overflow)
drain (refer to Figure 3). Use PVC fittings on the plastic
condensate pan. Finger tighten plus 11/2turns. Do not
over-tighten. Use pipe dope.

PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD

3.

have an anti-siphon air vent (stand pipe), installed
ahead of the horizontal run. An extremely long horizontal run may require an oversized drain line to
eliminate air trapping.
Refer to Figure 4 for minimum trap dimensions.
Route to the outside or to a floor drain. Check local
codes before connecting to a waste (sewer) line.

4.

Prime all traps, test for leaks, and insulate drain
lines where sweating could cause water damage.

5.

If a gravity drain cannot be used, install a condensate pump. Install the pump as close to the indoor
section as possible.

Condensate

Trap

Connect drain lines to the appropriate drain connections. Drain lines should not be smaller than the
drain connections (3_,,).
NOTE: Traps must be used when the coil is
installed on the return air side of the system (negative pressure). When coil is installed on the supply
side (positive pressure) it is not necessary to install
traps and better drainage is usually achieved without traps.
Install properly sized condensate traps in the drain
line as close to the coil as possible. Install drain lines
below the bottom of the drain pan and pitch the drain
lines down from the coil at least ¼ inch per foot of
run. Horizontal runs over 15 feet long must also

'

WASTE LINE CONNECTION
If the condensate line is to be connected to a waste (sewer) line, an open trap must be installed ahead of the waste
line to prevent escape of sewer gases (refer to Figure 5).

EXPLOSION

HAZARD

Failure to provide trap could result in personal injury, death, or property damage.
Provide trap with air gap in drain line when connecting to waste (sewer) line. Refer to Figure 5.

CHECK AND ADJUST AIR FLOW

ELECTRICAL

SHOCK HAZARD

3.

Using the manometer (draft gauge or flow gauge),
measure the static pressure drop across the dry coil
and compare it to the numbers in Figure 6.

4.

Find the corresponding CFM in Figure 6.

Failure to shut of electric power could result in
personal injury or death.

Adjusting

Before adjusting blower speed, shut off electric
power to the furnace or blower module.

If CFM is too low, increase the blower speed and measure
the static pressure drop again. Determine CFM from Figure 6.

It is important that the correct amount of air (CFM) flows
through the coil. The installer must determine the required CFM based on the characteristics of the specific
system (such as system size, ducting, components, and
accessories). In general, 400 CFM per ton is the nominal
required value, with a range of 350 - 450 CFM per ton.
Check Static Pressure Drop and CFM Across Coil
The amount of air (CFM) is related to a pressure drop. To
determine the CFM, measure the pressure drop using an
inclined manometer (sometimes called draft gauge or air
flow gauge).
1.

The coil should be dry and clean. The air filter must
be clean and in place. All registers open. DO NOT
run the outdoor unit when checking air flow.

2.

Run the blower on cooling speed.

START-UP

Air Flow

If CFM is too high, reduce the blower speed and measure
the static pressure drop again. Determine CFM from Figure 6.
NOTE: Change blower speed as shown in the instructions for the furnace or air handler.
NOTE: It may not be possible to obtain a gauge reading
exactly the same as shown in Figure 6. This is due to variations in duct systems and blower speeds.
If the motor is at the highest speed and the CFM is still not
high enough, replace the blower and/or motor with a larger size.
If the unit has an adjustable belt driven blower, use an ammeter to check the motor current draw. If the current draw
is higher than the motor name plate amps, replace the
motor with one of greater horsepower.

PROCEDURE

Refer to outdoor unit Installation Instructions for refrigeration system start-up instructions and refrigerant charging
method details.
