SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS
Installing and servicing air-conditioning equipment can be
hazardous due to system pressure and electrical compo-
nents. Only trained and qualified service personnel should
install or service air-conditioning equipment.
Untrained personnel can perform basic maintenance, such
as cleaning and replacing filters. All other operations should
be performed by trained service personnel. When working
on air conditioning equipment, observe precautions in lit-
erature and on tags and labels attached to unit.
Follow all safety codes. Wear safety glasses and work gloves.
Use quenching cloth for brazing operations. Have fire ex-
tinguisher available. Read these instructions thoroughly. Con-
sult local building codes and National Electrical Code (NEC)
for special installation requirements.
Before installing or servicing system, always turn off
main power to system. There may be more than one dis-
connect switch. Turn off indoor fan coil power if ap-
plicable. Electrical shock can cause personal injury.
GENERAL
The Carrier 40QNH heat pump high wall fan coil units
(Fig. 1) come with supplemental electric heat. If your ap-
plication requires heating, heat pump units must be used, both
outdoors and indoors. See Table 1 for recommended system
combinations.
