This document outlines the installation, operation, and maintenance procedures for Trane/American Standard Packaged Convertible Gas/Electric units, specifically models YCC018-060F. These units are designed for outdoor mounting with a vertical condenser discharge and can be installed at ground level or on a roof. They are suitable for both residential and commercial applications, with specific warranty terms for each.

Function Description:

The YCC018-060F series units provide both heating and cooling functions. They are gas/electric packaged units, meaning all components for both heating (gas furnace) and cooling (electric air conditioner) are housed within a single outdoor cabinet. The units are shipped configured for natural gas only, but can be converted for propane use. They are designed for either horizontal or downflow airflow applications, with instructions provided for converting between these configurations. The heating cycle is controlled by a solid-state ignition system, and the cooling cycle utilizes a compressor and outdoor/indoor fan motors.

Important Technical Specifications:

Usage Features:

Outdoor Installation: Designed for ground level or rooftop mounting.
Convertible Airflow: Units can be configured for horizontal or downflow supply and return air. Conversion involves repositioning covers and potentially installing a flue restrictor for low-fire operation.
Roof Mounting: Requires a roof mounting curb (BAYCURB030/38A or field fabricated) and spreader bars for hoisting to prevent damage. The unit's drip lip should sit over the outside corner of the curb. Hold-down brackets secure the unit to the curb.
Ground Level Mounting: Units are placed on a pad (same size or larger than the unit) and secured with five rubber isolators.
Ductwork Connection: Flexible canvas connectors are recommended to minimize noise and vibration. Ductwork outside the structure must be insulated (minimum 2 inches) and weatherproofed.
Gas Piping: Requires a tapped shut-off gas cock, a ground union joint, and a drip leg (minimum 6 inches deep) to collect sediment. Gas supply pressure must be checked and regulated if excessive.
Electrical Connections: All wiring must comply with national, state, and local codes. A weatherproof disconnect switch is required. The unit must be electrically grounded. Low voltage control wiring should not be run with power wiring unless properly rated.
Start-up Procedure: Includes pre-start checklist, voltage check, and specific steps for starting in cooling and heating modes. Compressor crankcase heater must be energized for eight hours before starting the compressor.
Heating Cycle Operation: Solid-state ignition control lights burners. Combustion blower energizes, pressure switch closes, gas valve opens, ignitor sparks, and flame detector confirms ignition. Indoor blower motor energizes after a delay.
Cooling Cycle Operation: Compressor contactor and indoor fan relay energize, operating the compressor and outdoor/indoor fan motors.
Safety Features: Temperature limit switch (TCO) protects against overheating, and a fusible link (FS) protects against flame rollout due to flue blockage. The IGN LED Diagnostic Indicator provides fault codes for troubleshooting.

Maintenance Features:

Routine Maintenance (Owner):
- Filters: Check weekly for the first four weeks in new homes, then regularly. Replace disposable filters; clean permanent filters with mild detergent and water, ensuring they are thoroughly dry before reinstallation. Replace permanent filters annually if washing is ineffective or they show signs of deterioration.
- Condenser Coil: Clean the coil surface with a soft-bristled brush to remove dust and dirt. Keep vegetation clear from the coil area.
- General Unit Inspection: Regularly inspect the unit for obvious deterioration.
Serviceman Maintenance (Cooling Season - Annually):
- Check filters, motors and drive system components, economizer gaskets, safety controls, electrical components and wiring (for tightness), condensate drain (for cleaning), unit duct connections, unit mounting support, and overall unit condition.
Serviceman Maintenance (Heating Season - Annually):
- Visually inspect the unit for airflow obstructions to combustion and condenser coil.
- Inspect control panel wiring for tight connections and intact insulation.
- Check gas ignition system operation by turning off gas supply to verify valve closure and reignition cycle.
- Inspect inside of burners and burner ports for deposit buildup and corrosion; clean with a dry cloth or replace if excessive.
Flue Cleaning (Serviceman - Annually):
- Inspect flue for flaking rust and soot deposits.
- Procedure involves turning off power and gas, removing access panels, combustion blower assembly, flue box, and flue restrictors.
- Disconnect gas supply line and remove burner-manifold assembly.
- Remove inlet turbulators carefully.
- Wipe flue box and baffles clean with a dry cloth.
- Replace all gaskets and damaged turbulators.
- Reassemble unit, check wiring, leak test gas connections, and reinstall panels.
- Visually inspect airflow opening for combustion.
- Follow start-up procedure to return unit to service.
Safety Precaution: Do not operate the unit without the evaporator fan access panel properly installed to prevent severe personal injury or death.
