GENERAL INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
General Mounting - Vertical / Horizontal Air Handler Units
Duct Work For Vertical / Horizontal Air Handler Units
• Use at least ten (10) M4-25L screws when attaching the supply
duct to the vertical-horizontal air handler unit.
• To prevent vibration transmission, install flexible connectors be-
tween the supply duct and the vertical-horizontal air handler unit.
If an electrical heater is included, the flexible connector must be
constructed from a heat-resistant material.
• When routed through unconditioned spaces, ducts must be
insulated and covered with vapor barriers.
• Internal acoustical insulation lining may be necessary for a metal
duct system if it does not have a 90° elbow and ten (10) feet of
main duct to the first branch takeoff.
• Fibrous ducts could be used as a substitute if built and installed
in accordance with the most recent edition of the Sheet Metal
and Air Conditioning Contractors' National Association (SMAC-
NA) Construction Standard.
• Fibrous ducts and acoustical linings must follow National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA) Standards 90A or 90B as tested
by UL Standard 181 for Class 1 ducts.
• Seal around the ducts to prevent air leaks.
