SECTION 8: UPRIGHT STAND
A stand can be used when an upright air handler is to
be installed on a concrete slab or on the floor. The
stand for model 2005 is 30" (76.2 cm) tall; stands for
models 2010 and 2010B are available at 53" (134.6
cm) or 72" (182.9 cm) tall; stands for models 2020
and 2030 are 72"(182.9 cm) tall. The stand must first
be fastened to the concrete slab or floor before the air
handler is mounted.
8.1 Upright Stand Installation
To attach the stand to a concrete slab, it must be
secured with the use of studs, embedded in the
concrete. Four 5/8" studs (minimum) must be
installed in the slab, one for each corner of the stand.
The stand has four 11/16" (17.4 mm) holes drilled
through the stand pads. See Page 23, Figure 16.
Fasten the stand to the slab with four 5/8" hex nuts
and lock washers (provided by others).
8.2 Attaching Air Handler to Stand
Once the stand is secured to a concrete slab, the air
handler may be placed on the stand. Prior to lifting
the air handler, apply the foam tape and remove the
attaching hardware as described below. The ½"
(12.7 mm) thick double-sided urethane foam tape
(provided by others) must be applied to the top edge
of the stand. The bolts on the air handler that
correspond to the attaching location of the mounting
stand must be removed and saved for re-installation
to sec
ure the air handler to the stand. Lift the air
handler on to the mounting stand. See Page 17,
Section 6.1 for safe lifting practices. Once the air
handler is placed on the stand, secure it with the
attaching hardware that was removed prior to lifting it
in to place per recommended torque settings. See
Page 9, Table 1. See Page 22, Figure 13 (2005) and
Page 22, Figure 14 (2010 - 2030). After placing the
air handler on the mounting stand, seems between
the mounting stand and the air handler must be
properly caulked (caulk provided by others).
NOTE: If using a filter section with an upright air
handler and stand, the filter section must be set into
the stand before the air handler is mounted on the
stand. The 1/2" (12.7 cm) thick double-sided
urethane foam tape should be applied between the
stand and the filter section. See Page 43, Section
11.6 .
