Figure 4 Unit Configuration 1) INDOOR AND OUTDOOR AIR REQUIREMENTS The indoor and outdoor air systems are designed to operate at specified airflow rates and external static pressures. The supply and return air duct system pressure losses (including filter, louver/grille and registers) must not exceed the listed external static pressures for either the indoor or outdoor air systems. CAUTION: Failure to adhere to indoor air and outdoor air requirements as listed in the following sections will

C. Indoor-Air (Conditioned Supply Air) System The VEB/VHB series unit may be applied in either a free return air configuration or a ducted return air configuration. The supply air path is intended to be ducted. The design and construction of the indoor-air system must provide adequate air distribution to ensure comfort levels throughout the structure. The combined pressure losses of the return and supply air paths must not exceed the external static capabilities of the system at the design air

2) Electrical DANGER: Electrical shock hazard. Turn OFF electric power at the fuse box or service panel before making any electrical connections and ensure a proper ground connection is made before connecting line voltage. Failure to do so can result in property damage, personal injury and/or death. A. Grounding CAUTION: The unit must be electrically wired and grounded in accordance with all state and local codes, national electric code, and NFPA 70. Unit and controls will NOT operate un

Section IV OWNER'S MANUAL AND OPERATING INFORMATION IDENTIFYING YOUR SYSTEM Take the time to familiarize yourself with the type of system you have. This knowledge will be of use in understanding the basic operation of your unit. A self-contained unit, like the Vert-I-Pak, has all of its major components in one cabinet located inside your home. The unit does not have a separate outdoor unit like a traditional “split-system” air conditioner or heat pump. Figure 4 shows the location of the majo

to run for extended periods of time and may be assisted by the auxiliary electric resistance heating elements. Once you understand the operation of your new heat pump, you will appreciate its constant, even heat and lower energy consumption. Heat Mode Operation During the heat mode of operation, frost or ice may build up on the outdoor-air coil after operating for extended periods during particularly cool and humid weather. When this occurs, your heat pump senses this condition and goes through

System Control The SYSTEM or MODE control on your thermostat offers the following selections: COOL, OFF, HEAT, and EM HEAT. Neither the cooling nor heating equipment will operate when the SYSTEM or MODE control is set to OFF. With the SYSTEM or MODE control set to COOL, your unit will operate in cooling mode. With the SYSTEM or MODE control set to HEAT, your unit will operate in heating mode. Auxiliary Heating Your system also includes an auxiliary electric heating source. The SYSTEM or MODE con

PERFORMING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE With the proper maintenance and care, your system will operate economically and dependably. Maintenance can be accomplished easily by referring to the following directions. However, before performing any maintenance, consider these important safety precautions: WARNING: Electrical Shock Hazard. Before attempting any service work or routine maintenance, turn off all electrical connections to the unit. Failure to do so may result in property damage, personal injury

INSPECT AND CLEAN INDOOR-AIR COIL Eventually, minor amounts of lint and dirt may pass through the filter and collect on the indoor-air coil. These minor accumulations can be carefully vacuumed away with a brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner. Care must be taken to avoid bending the aluminum fins on the coil. Bent fins should be straightened using a special fin tool available from most HVAC service technicians. INSPECT OUTDOOR-AIR INTAKE AND EXHAUST The unit’s outdoor-air intake and outdoor-air e
