FOUNDATION
The unit must be mounted on a at and level foundation capable of supporting the entire operating weight of the
equipment. The unit MUST NOT set at on a concrete slab. The PoolPak™ unit MUST BE raised 6 inches to allow
for sufcient height to adequately trap the condensate line and to allow for electrical service entrance. The unit must be
supported at a minimum of six places, including all corners and the center points of each side. Each support should be
at least 12 inches long. The unit must be level to ensure proper condensate drainage. If the unit is elevated beyond the
normal reach of service personnel, a catwalk capable of supporting service personnel, their equipment, and the scroll
compressor(s) (about 1,000 lb.) must be constructed around the unit.
For ground-level installation, a one-piece concrete slab with footers that extend below the frost line is highly
recommended. Additionally, the slab should not be tied to the main building foundations to prevent noise transmission.
The unit must be supported with adequate space to allow for a condensate line trap.
For roof-top installation, choose a location with adequate structural strength to support the entire weight of the unit and
service personnel. For non-curb mounted units, provide spring vibration isolation to minimize vibration transmission to
the roof structure. The unit must be situated with adequate height for a condensate line trap. The PoolPak unit may be
mounted on equipment rails with spring vibration isolation. For any alternative mountings not discussed here, contact
the factory for additional guidance. Care must be taken not to damage the roof. If the roof is bonded, consult the building
contractor for allowable installation procedures.
INSPECTION
Immediately upon receiving the unit, inspect it for damage which may have occurred during transit. If damage is evident,
note it on the carrier’s freight bill. A written request for inspection by the carrier’s agent should be made at once.
UNIT HOOKUP
Avoid tearing or damaging unit insulation while working on or around the unit. Do not stack access panels. Stand them
upright with the insulation away from trafc.
Gas Furnace Auxiliary Heat (Optional)
When using a gas furnace, power venting is provided for all unit sizes. No additional venting or caps are provided.
Please refer to the furnace manufacturer’s manual for piping and venting instructions. Natural gas furnaces are
available with outputs of 180,000 to 1,250,000 BTU, as determined by unit conguration and project requirements.
Power Supply
The contractor is required to supply (unless supplied as an option by PoolPak™) and install separate fused disconnect(s)
within easy accessibility of the PoolPak™ unit. Use the minimum circuit capacity listed on the unit’s data plate to
determine the minimum wire size for incoming electrical power. The ground connection for the unit is located in the unit
control panel. The power supply to the unit must be adequate for the compressor starting amperage (LRA). All eld
wiring must be done according to the wiring diagram provided with the unit and in conformance to the National Electrical
Code (NEC) and any other applicable local electrical code(s).
If a remote or piggy-backed air-cooled condenser is required, a separate power feed must be provided for the air-cooled
condenser. When the auxiliary electric heater option is provided, another power connection point (3L1, 3L2, and 3L3) is
provided in the supply fan compartment. This power connection feeds the auxiliary electric heating coil. With this option,
the contractor is required to supply and install a second fused disconnect.
