Installation Instructions
Use the correct wall case
This unit is designed to be installed in a GE plastic or
insulated metal wall case. This minimizes condensation
from forming on the room side of the case.
If the current wall case is not insulated, you can reduce
the possibility of condensation forming by installing
insulation kit RAK901L, available where you purchased
the unit.
NOTE:
There are several extra holes in the unit side flanges
for installation in wall cases other than GE. To avoid
damaging the flange insulation, the installer should use
an awl or other sharp tool to puncture the insulation in
the appropriate holes before installing the attachment
screws.
Use the correct outdoor grille
You should use the outdoor grilles shown on the
“Essential Elements” label on the base pan.
•
If an existing grille is not replaced, capacity and
efficiency will be reduced and the unit may fail to
operate properly or fail prematurely. A deflector kit,
RAK40, may be used with grilles that were not designed
for your new GE Zonelines. The RAK40 contains air
deflectors and gaskets that mount to the unit to direct
the hot exhaust air away from the air intake to allow
the unit to function properly. The grille must have a
65% minimum free area.
•
Any vertical deflectors in the existing rear grille should
be removed to decrease condenser air recirculation
that can cause the unit to “short-cycle” and lead to
premature component failure.
Use the correct power cord
Local codes may require the use of arc fault or leakage
current detection devices on 230/208-volt installations.
Check the “Essential
Elements” label for
important information.
Replacing a ducted unit
New ducted installation:
If this unit is to be installed in a new ducted application
using a duct adapter kit, the kit must be installed before
the unit is placed in the wall case. The installation
instructions are packed with the kit.
Duct kits available:
RAK6052
RAK601/602
Existing ducted installation:
Replacement of an existing ducted unit may require
different components. Request this information from your
sales representative.
