tolerances and other conditions affecting coil performance.
B. Examine roughing-in for piping systems to verify actual locations of piping connections before coil
installation.
C. Proceed with installation only after unsatisfactory conditions have been corrected.

3.2 INSTALLATION
A. Install coils level and plumb.
B. Install coils in metal ducts and casings constructed according to SMACNA's "HVAC Duct Construction
Standards, Metal and Flexible."

3.3 CONNECTIONS
A. Piping installation requirements are specified in other Division 15 Sections. Drawings in-dicate general
arrangement of piping, fittings, and specialties.
B. Install piping adjacent to coils to allow service and maintenance.
C. Unless otherwise indicated, connect piping with unions and shutoff valves to allow coils to be disconnected
without draining piping. Refer to piping system Sections for specific valve and specialty arrangements.
D. Ground equipment.
1. Tighten electrical connectors and terminals according to manufacturer's published torque-
tightening values. If manufacturer's torque values are not indicated, use those specified in UL
486A and UL 486B.

3.4 ADJUSTING
A. Adjust initial temperature and humidity set points.
B. Set field-adjustable switches and circuit-breaker trip ranges as indicated.
C. Straighten bent fins on each air coil.
