3. Notify your Trane sales representative of the damage
and arrange for repair.
Note: Do not attempt to repair the unit without consulting
the Trane sales representative.
4. Keep the damaged material in the same location as it
was received.
Note: It is the receiver's responsibility to provide
reasonable evidence that concealed damage was
not incurred after delivery.
Storage Recommendations
Note: All factory shipping protection should be removed.
This wrapping is for transit protection only and
should not be used for jobsite storage.
Indoor air handlers and/or field-installed accessories that
must be stored for a period of time before installation must
be protected from the elements. A controlled indoor
environment is recommended for proper storage.
Outdoor air handlers require no special protection for
storage before installation. Keep the equipment in the
original container for protection and ease of handling.
Note: The warranty does not cover damage to the unit or
controls due to negligence during storage.
General Storage
The unit controller and all other electrical/electronic
components should be stored in conditions of
-20ºF to 120°F and 5 to 95 percent relative humidity, non-
condensing. Electrical components are not moisture-
tolerant. Factory protective coverings should be removed
prior to storage.
Long-Term Storage
For longer periods of storage, allow proper clearance
around the unit to perform periodic inspection and
maintenance of the equipment.
While the unit is in storage:
• Every two weeks, rotate the fan and motor shaft 30
revolutions by hand. Check for free rotation.
• Every six months, check fan shaft bearings and grease
lines. Add grease using a manual grease gun following
the lubrications recommendations in “Fan Bearing
Lubrication” on page 124.
• Check the motor lubrication; remove and clean grease
plugs and check for the presence of moisture in the
grease. If moisture is present, remove the motor and
send it to an authorized repair shop for bearing
inspection/replacement. If no moisture if present, refer
to the motor manufacturer’s lubrication
recommendation for proper lubrication.
Outdoor Storage Considerations
Outdoor storage is not recommended for units that will be
installed indoors. However, when outdoor storage is
necessary, several things must be done to prevent
damage:
Note: Keep the equipment on the original wooden blocks/
skid for protection and ease of handling.
• Select a well-drained area, preferably a concrete pad or
blacktop surface.
• Place the unit on a dry surface or raised off the ground
to assure adequate air circulation beneath the unit and
to assure no portion of the unit will contact standing
water at any time.
• Loosen the belt tension on the drive belts.
• Cover the unit securely with a canvas tarp.
• Do not stack units.
• Do not pile other material on the unit.
Preparing the Unit Site
• Ensure the installation site can support the total weight
of the unit (see “Unit Dimensions and Weights” on
page 12 for approximate section weights; refer to the
unit submittals for actual weights).
• Allow sufficient space for adequate free air and
necessary service access (see “Service Clearances”
on page 12). Refer to submittals for specific
minimums.
• Allow room for supply and return piping, ductwork,
electrical connections, and coil removal.
• Ensure there is adequate height for condensate drain
requirements. See “Drain Pan Trapping” on page 86.
Note: If unit is installed in a mechanical room on a pad,
inadequate height may necessitate core-drilling
the floor to attain proper trap height. Insufficient
height could inhibit condensate drainage and
result in flooding the unit and/or equipment room.
NOTICE:
Corrosion!
Use only canvas tarps to cover air handlers. Plastic
tarps can cause condensation to form in and on the
equipment, which could result in corrosion damage or
wet storage stains.
