P osition the unit above the average height of snow observed in the region where it is installed. Never install temporary or permanent objects (tarp or roof) over the unit, because recycling of hot air would reduce the capacity of the condensation[...]

12 Drainag e Pro vide a large-capacity drain for water vessel drain-down during shutdown or repair . The evaporator is provided with a drain connection. All local and national codes apply . The vent on the top of the evaporator water bo x is provided to prevent a vacuum, by allowing air into the evaporator for complete drainage. Releasing the Nitr [...]

13 Follow the manufacturer's instructions for the installation procedures. Flow S witch Installation 1 . Mount the switc h upright, with a minimum of 5 pipe diameters of straight horizontal run on eac h side. Do not install close to elbows, orifices, or valves. Note: The arrow on the switc h must point in the direction of flow. 2. T o prevent [...]

14 Installation the values given by the pressure gauges, open one valve and close the other . Refr iger ant Saf ety V alv es Disc harge valves are an option for the R TUB. If installation requires this valve to be mounted, it is mandatory to install two safety valves: one between the compressor and the service valve and the other after the service [...]
