Trane Startup Checklist
This checklist is intended to be a guide for the Trane
technician just prior to unit 'startup'. Many of the
recommended checks and actions could expose the
technician to electrical and mechanical hazards. Refer
to the appropriate sections in the this manual for
appropriate procedures, component specifications and
safety instructions.
IImmppoorrttaanntt:: This checklist is not intended as a
substitution for the contractor’s installation
instruction.
IImmppoorrttaanntt:: Except where noted, it is implied that the
Trane technician is to use this checklist for
inspection/verification of prior tasks
completed by the general contractor at
installation. Use the line item content to
also record the associated values onto the
Trane unitary packaged equipment log.
