c. If not already installed, install the floor and ceiling
tracks up to and over the 42SJ fan coil unit.
d. Position the vertical studs and fasten into each of
the stud pockets formed into the chase side panels
(see Fig. 41).
NOTE: The studs may be mechanically fastened
to the 42SJ fan coil. Care should be taken, how-
ever, not to penetrate the supply or return water
risers or internal piping. Given the levelness of the
floor and/or the fan coil assembly, some shimming
may be necessary.
e. Assemble the specified wall construction up to
and over the top of the fan coil unit (see Fig. 42).
f. With the fire-wall separation being complete, the
drywall skin on the surface of the individual fan
coils can be applied. Drywall can be applied
directly to the surface, or, if necessary, studding
may be installed on the corners for vertical control
(see Fig. 42).
g. For ease of installation of the access panel, apply
drywall on the return air side directly to the sur-
face of the unit (see Fig. 42). When applying the
wall board directly to the unit cabinet, it may be
necessary to shim the wall board in some areas to
achieve the desired finished wall surface.
h. After all drywalling and painting is complete,
install thermostats, supply air grilles and return air
panels.
7. Attach unit risers:
NOTE: Submittals and product literature detailing unit
operation, controls, and connections should be thorough-
ly reviewed BEFORE beginning the connection and test-
ing of risers and piping. The supply and return connec-
tions are marked on the coil stub-outs and the valve pack-
age with an “S” meaning supply or inlet and “R” meaning
return or outlet indicating flow direction to and from the
coil. Blue letters mark the chilled water connections and
red letters mark the hot water connections.
a. Each riser has a 3-in. swaged portion at top and
sufficient extension at bottom for an inserted
length of approximately 2-inches. This unit-to-
unit joint is NOT intended for full bottoming in
the joint, but allows for variations in floor-to-floor
dimensions and for correct riser positioning.
If job requires that unit risers be supplemented
with between-the-floor extensions, pieces may be
field-supplied or factory-supplied. If factory-
supplied, insulation is also provided.
b. Level unit to ensure proper coil operation and
condensate drainage. Proper riser installation and
vertical positioning in the unit provides for a unit
piping run-out to the service valves which are cen-
tered in the access slots and level or sloping down
slightly away from the riser. This prevents con-
densation from running back to the riser and pos-
sible damage from dripping at the bottom of a
riser column. Each job has specific requirements,
and satisfying those requirements is the responsi-
bility of the installer. After units are positioned
and riser centered in pipe chase, make unit plumb
in two directions, using unit frame as a reference.
c. Anchor unit to building. Use bolts or lag screws
through holes provided in unit frame.
d. After all units in a stack are anchored, make unit-
to-unit riser joints. First, center each coil-to-riser
line within the expansion slot in the unit back
panel. Each riser joint must be in vertical
alignment with at least 1-in. penetration into the
swaged joint. This condition is met if floor-to-
floor dimension is as specified and coil-to-riser
lines are properly centered. Wide variations in
floor-to-floor dimensions may necessitate cutting
off or extending individual risers. Such modifica-
tions are the full responsibility of the installing
contractor.
e. Before making the riser joints, the riser insulation
must be pulled back away from the joint and pro-
tected from heat during the brazing process. The
riser joint filler material must be selected to with-
stand the total operating pressure (both static and
pumping head) to which the system will be sub-
jected. Low temperature lead alloy solders such as
“50/50” and “60/40” are normally not suitable.

CAUTION
Toxic residues and loose particles resulting from manufac-
turing and field piping techniques such as joint compounds,
soldering flux, and metal shavings may be present in the
unit and the piping system. Special consideration must be
given to system cleanliness when connecting to solar,
domestic or potable water systems. Failure to heed this
warning could result in equipment damage.
