CAUTION
PRODUCT OR PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product or
property damage
The conversion of the fan coil to downflow requires
special procedures for the condensate drains on both
A−coil and Slope−coil units. The vertical drains have an
overflow hole between the primary and secondary drain
holes. This hole is plugged for all applications except
downflow, and must be used for downflow.
Failure to follow instructions could result in personal
injury or product and property damage.
In this application, field conversion of the evaporator coil is
required using accessory Downflow Kit along with an
accessory Base Kit. Set unit on floor over opening and use
1/8” to 1/4” thick fireproof resilient gasket between duct,
unit, and floor. Refer to installation instructions packaged
with accessory kit. See Product Specification literature for
kit part numbers.
During the conversion process, removed the plastic cap
covering the vertical drains only and discard.
Remove the plug from the overflow hole and discard.
At completion of the downflow installation, caulk around the
vertical pan fitting to door joint to retain low air leak
performance of the unit.
NOTE: Gasket kit number (EBAC01GSK) is also required
for all downflow applications to maintain low air leak/low
sweat performance.
C. MODULAR UNITS
The WAXL60 fan coil is a two−piece modular unit. This
allows the unit to be disassembled and components moved
separately to the installation area for reassembly. This
process accommodates small scuttle holes and limiting
entrances to installation sites (refer to Figure 2).

AIR DUCTS
Connect supply−air duct over the outside of ¾” flanges
provided on supply−air opening. Secure duct to flange
using proper fasteners for type of duct used, and seal
duct−to−unit joint.
It is a recommendation, but not a requirement, to use
flexible connections between ductwork and unit to prevent
transmission of vibration. When electric heater is installed,
use heat−resistant material for flexible connector between
duct work and unit at discharge connection. Duct work
passing through unconditioned space must be insulated
and covered with vapor barrier.
Duct work Acoustical Treatment
Metal duct systems that do not have a 90 degree elbow and
10 feet of main duct before first branch takeoff may require
internal acoustical insulation lining. As an alternative,
fibrous duct work may be used if constructed and installed
in accordance with the latest edition of SMACNA
construction standard on fibrous glass ducts. Both
acoustical lining and fibrous duct work shall comply with
National Fire Protection Association as tested by UL
Standard 181 for Class 1 air ducts.

2. Connect ground wire to unit ground lug.
3. When installing an electric heater, remove and
discard power plug (if equipped) from fan coil and
connect male plug from heater to female plug from
unit wiring harness. (See Electric Heater Installation
Instructions.)
B. 24V CONTROL SYSTEM
Connection to Unit
Wire low voltage in accordance with wiring label on the
blower (also refer to NO TAG through Figure 11). Use 18
AWG color−coded, insulated (35 ° C minimum) wire to
make the low−voltage connections between the
thermostat, the unit, and the outdoor equipment. If the
thermostat is located more than 100 feet from the unit (as
measured along the low voltage wire), use 16 AWG
color−coded, insulated (35 ° C minimum) wire. All wiring
must be NEC Class 1 and must be separated from
incoming power leads. Refer to outdoor unit wiring
instructions for additional wiring recommendations.
Heater Staging
If electric heat staging is required, a multi−stage heating
room thermostat is required. Consult with your equipment
supplier for a suitable thermostat.
Manufactured Housing
In manufactured housing applications, the Code of Federal
Regulations, Title 24, Chapter XX, Part 3280.714 requires
that supplemental electric heat be locked out at outdoor

WARNING
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to establish uninterrupted or unbroken ground
could result in personal injury and/or death.
According to NEC, ANSI/NFPA 70, and local codes, the
cabinet must have an uninterrupted or unbroken ground
in order to minimize potential for personal injury or death
if an electrical fault should occur. The ground may
consist of electrical wire or metal conduit when installed
in accordance with existing electrical codes. If conduit
connection uses reducing washers, a separate ground
wire must be used.
NOTE: Use UL listed conduit and conduit connectors for
connecting supply wire(s) to unit to obtain proper grounding.
Grounding may also be accomplished by using grounding
lugs provided in control box.
D. MINIMUM CFM AND MOTOR SPEED SELECTION
Units with or without electric heaters require a minimum CFM.
Refer to the unit wiring label to ensure that the fan speed
selected is not lower than the minimum fan speed indicated.
NOTE: In low static applications, lower motor speed tap
should be used to reduce possibility of water being blown off
coil.
Fan speed is selected at the motor connector. Units with or
without electric heaters require a minimum CFM. Refer to
the unit wiring label to ensure that the fan speed selected
is not lower than the minimum fan speed indicated.

If using a TXV in conjunction with a single−phase
reciprocating compressor, a compressor start capacitor
and relay are required. Consult outdoor unit pre−sale
literature for start assist kit part number.
CONDENSATE DRAINS
Unit is provided with primary and secondary 3/4” (19mm)
NPT drain connections. Refer to Figure 1, Figure 3,
Figure 4, Figure 5, and Figure 6 to identify the primary
and secondary locations. To prevent property damage and
achieve optimum drainage performance, BOTH primary
and secondary drain lines should be installed and include
properly sized condensate traps (refer to Figure 15).
Factory approved condensate traps are available
(accessory part number EBAC01CTK).
To connect drain lines, the drain connection knock−outs
must be removed. Use a knife to start the opening near the
tab and using pliers, pull the tab to remove the knock−out.
Clean the edge of the opening if necessary. After drain
fittings are installed, caulk the seam between the fitting and
the cover to retain the low leak rating of the unit.
It is recommended the PVC fittings be used on the plastic
condensate pan. Do not over−tighten. Finger−tighten plus
1−1/2 turns. Use pipe dope, to ensure proper seal.
Install traps in the condensate lines as close to the coil as
possible (refer to Figure 17), but avoid blocking filter
access panel.
Install drain lines below the bottom of the drain pan and
pitch the drain lines down from the coil at least 1/4 inch per
foot of run (6mm per 0.3m). Horizontal runs over 15 feet
(5m) long must also have an anti−siphon air vents (stand
pipes), installed ahead of the horizontal runs. Extremely
long horizontal runs may require oversized drain lines to
eliminate air trapping.
Route primary drain line to the outside or to a floor drain.
Check local codes before connecting to a waste (sewer)
line.
Route the secondary drain line to a place in compliance with
local installation codes where it will be noticed when unit is
operational. Condensate flowing from secondary
(overflow) drain indicates a plugged primary drain − unit
requires service or water damage will occur.
Prime all traps, test for leaks, and insulate in areas where
sweating of the traps and drain lines could potentially cause
water damage. Consult local codes for additional
requirements or precautions.
If a gravity drain cannot be used, install a condensate pump.
Install the pump as close to the indoor section as possible.
!
CAUTION
PRODUCT or PROPERTY DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in product or
property damage.
Use only full size P−traps in the condensate line (refer to
Figure 15). Shallow, running traps are inadequate and
DO NOT allow proper condensate drainage (refer to
Figure 16).

start−up instructions and refrigerant charging method
details.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
The system should be regularly inspected by a qualified
service technician. Consult the servicing dealer for
recommended frequency.
Between visits, the only consumer service recommended
or required is air filter maintenance and condensate drain
operation.
Air Filter
Inspect air filters at least monthly and replace or clean as
required. Disposable type filters should be replaced.
Reusable type filters may be cleaned by soaking in mild
detergent and rinsing with cold water. Install filters with the
arrows on the side pointing in the direction of air flow.
Condensate Drain
During the cooling season check at least monthly for free
flow of drainage and clean if necessary.
!
CAUTION
PRODUCT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in poor unit
performance and/or product damage.
Never operate unit without a filter. Factory authorized
filter kits must be used when locating the filter inside the
unit. For those applications where access to an internal
filter is impractical, a field−supplied filter must be
installed in the return duct system.

- Airflow outside 450 cfm/ton.
NOTES:
1. Airflow based upon dry coil at 230v with factory−approved filter and electric heater (2 element heater sizes 18 through 36, 3 element heater sizes 42
through 60). Airflow at 208 volts is approximately the same as 230 volts because the ECM motor is a constant torque motor. The torque doesn’t drop
off at the speeds the motor operates.
2. To avoid potential for condensate blowing out of drain pan prior to making drain trap:
Return static pressure must be less than 0.40 in. wc.
Horizontal applications of 42 − 60 sizes must have supply static greater than 0.20 in. wc.
3. Airflow above 400 cfm/ton on 48 & 60 size could result in condensate blowing off coil or splashing out of drain pan.

R−410A QUICK REFERENCE GUIDE
• R−410A refrigerant operates at 50% − 70% higher pressures than R−22. Be sure that servicing equipment and
replacement components are designed to operate with R−410A.
• R−410A refrigerant cylinders are rose colored.
• Recovery cylinder service pressure rating must be 400 psig, DOT 4BA400 or DOT BW400.
• R−410A systems should be charged with liquid refrigerant. Use a commercial type metering device in the
manifold hose.
• Manifold sets should be 750 psig high−side and 200 psig low−side with 520 psig low−side retard.
• Use hoses with 750 psig service pressure rating.
• Leak detectors should be designed to detect HFC refrigerant.
• R−410A, as with other HFC refrigerants, is only compatible with POE oils.
• POE oils absorb moisture rapidly. Do not expose oil to atmosphere.
• POE oils may cause damage to certain plastics and roofing materials.
• Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from oil.
• A liquid line filter−drier is required on every unit.
• Do not use liquid line filter−driers with rated working pressures less than 600 psig.
• Do not install a suction line filter−drier in liquid line.
• Wrap all filter−driers and service valves with wet cloth when brazing.
• Do not use capillary tube indoor coils.
• Never open system to atmosphere while it is under a vacuum.
• When system must be opened for service, break vacuum with dry nitrogen and replace all filter−driers.
• Do not vent R−410A into the atmosphere.
• Observe all WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, NOTES, and bold text.
• Do NOT use R−22 TXV.
