Notes:
The framing should be installed for a maximum 0.5” maximum clearance between the heat pump return air flange and the return air
panel throat opening flange.
Return air panel should be centered in front of the unit return air opening.
For rear/side risers, allow an additional 5” clearance at the back/side of the units.
Insulate the drywall enclosure with plenum rated acoustical insulation.

Acoustic Panel Cabinet Base Height Calculation
C = Cabinet Base Height + 1.25"
B = Baseboard + Finish Floor Height*
G = Baseboard Gap (min 0.5”)
B = Cabinet Base Size
(Min 5", increases in 1" increments)
B = B + G - 1.25”
Note: *Include flooring thickness, underlayment, and any
concrete leveling as part of calculation.
Example:
If using a 5" baseboard, with 1” Flooring height, and 0.5" gap
B = (5” + 1”) + (0.5) - 1.25 = 5.25"
Hence a 6" Cabinet Base is required
