UNIT ACCESS Always provide sufficient clearance for unit maintenance and service. Minimum clearances for most situations are described below (except 60 Inches of free space is required in front of the control panel). Please note that these are minimums and more clearance may be required by local codes. Vertical Clearance Overhead obstructions are not permitted. Vertical air discharge from the condenser must have no obstructions that can cause the discharge air to be recirculated back to the inl
