The Model 5000 can be installed in a
variety of ways. The figures below show
some of the possibilities.
The air cleaner may be installed on the
left or right side of the air handler. If
installed on the right, the ON/OFF switch
will be on top and the nameplate will be
on the bottom. Remove the nameplate
and rotate it 180° to read properly.
