Wall Curb Application Guide

All curb model numbers are followed by -X (beige), -4 (gray), etc. to match unit color. All curbs have four rubber isolation mounts to reduce vibration to the installation wall.

NOTE A: A TCURB***** is required for all economizer applications. For T24 and T30 installations with CHCRV-3, a TCURB is also required.

TCURBF*****-*, TCURFT*****-*NEW INSTALLATIONS

1. Frame the wall in accordance with these installation instructions. See Figures 11-17.

2. Remove the packaging from the curb, but leave attached to the skid for now.

3a. TCURB*2430A models: Measure the distance between the SA (supply air) and RA (return air) opening in the wall and verify the curb has the correct back orientation for the wall. The curbs come out of the box set up for nominal 6" spacing between SA and RA. To convert to nominal 18" spacing, remove the RA panel from the back, rotate the RA panel 180˚ and place into position covering the lower open area. There should now be nominal 18" spacing between the SA and RA openings. Once verified, replace all screws securing the RA panel into place.

3b. TCURB*3642A and TCURB*4860A models: Measure the distance between the SA (supply air) and RA (return air) opening in the wall and verify the curb has the correct back orientation for the wall. The curbs come out of the box set up for nominal 6" spacing between SA and RA. To convert to nominal 30" spacing, remove the solid panel and RA panels from the back, move the solid panel up and attach to the bottom of the SA panel. Rotate the RA panel 180˚ and place into position covering lower open area. There should now be nominal 30" spacing between the SA and RA openings. Once verified, replace all screws securing the RA panel into place.

4. Remove curb from skid and lay flat on the back on the ground or on saw horses.

5. Attach the bug screen frame to the bottom of the curb with screws provided. Insert the bug screen.

6. Remove the four (4) bolts and lock washers holding the outer frame to the inner frame.

7. On top outlet versions, leave the upper support angle on the outer frame at this time.

8. Slide the outer frame off of the inner frame and set aside.

9. On the TCURBT3642A-* and TCURBT4860A-X mount the top box to the inner frame using the screws provided. The top box is shipped attached on all other curbs.

10. On the inner frame locate the TL side indicating Top Left. On the rear of the mounting flange, apply a liberal amount of silicone caulk to weather seal the inner curb to the structure.

11. Mount the inner frame to the wall using lag bolts. Be sure to center the supply and return flanges of the back in the wall openings. Verify the curb is square.

12. Remove the lower partition blank-off plate if the unit has an economizer installed in it. On C24H and C30H units, also remove the lower partition blank-off plate if the unit has a CHCRV-3 installed in it.

13. Slide the outer frame back over the inner frame and reattach using the four (4) bolts and lock washers removed in Step 6. The bug screen should be at the bottom of the curb. The top outlet sides must slide under the top outlet box sides.

NOTE: The outside curb will need to be compressed slightly to get the bolts started. Clamps or pliers may be needed to compress the rear seal to align the bolt holes. It is necessary for the seal to be under compression so when the wall mount is installed, adequate weather sealing is maintained.

14. Remove the upper support angle now if a top outlet curb.

15. Verify the curb is square.

16. Raise the unit to the curb with a suitable lift and engage the top of the unit to the curb first by slightly tipping the unit toward the curb. On top outlet curbs, ensure the unit is underneath the lip on the top outlet box. Caulk may be applied under the lip of the top outlet box if desired.

17. Engage nuts and washers (supplied) loosely to the top two (2) bolts in the curb to help keep the top of the unit in position.

18. Pivot the unit down to engage the remainder of the bolts and fasten securely to the curb with nuts and washers (supplied) (see Figure 18).

19. Apply a liberal amount of caulk across the top seam of the curb where it meets the unit or top outlet box. Also apply caulk where the curb or top box meet the wall (see Figures 19 and 20).

20. Connect power wires and thermostat wires to the unit. Use flexible conduit to maintain vibration isolation. Use of rigid conduit is not recommended and could cancel the benefits of the curb.

21. Connect ductwork per standard practices.

TFCT-32B-*, TFCF-32B-*, TFCT-53B-*, TFCF-53B-*RETROFIT INSTALLATIONS

Adding to Existing Installation

1. Disconnect the electrical entrance and thermostat wires from the old unit.

2. Disconnect the duct work as required from the old unit.

3. Supporting the unit, remove the mechanical fasteners retaining the wall mount unit to the structure, then lower the unit and move it off to the side.

4. Remove and discard bottom mounting bracket for wall mount.

5. Remove the packaging from the curb, but leave attached to the skid for now.

6. Verify that the wall is structurally sound. Make sure the new curb mounting holes will allow lag screws or other fastening devices to be inserted into supporting wall structure.

7. Measure the distance between the supply and return opening in the wall and verify the curb has the correct back orientation for the wall. If not, remove the inner back, turn 180˚ and reattach (see Figure 20). Verify the correct dimensions are correct.

8. Remove curb from skid and lay flat on the back on the ground or on saw horses.

9. Attach the bug screen frame to the bottom of the curb with screws provided. Insert the bug screen.

10. On top outlet versions, leave the upper support angle on the outer frame at this time.

11. On the curb, locate the TL side indicating top Left. On the rear of the wall mounting flange, apply a liberal amount of silicone caulk to weather seal the inner curb to the wall structure.

12. Mount the curb to the wall using lag bolts. The rubber plugs installed in the outer curb side flanges can be removed for lag hole access. Use a long drill driver extension (12") to reach lag holes. Be sure to center the supply and return flanges of the back in the wall openings. Verify the curb is square.

13. Remove the lower partition blank-off plate if the unit has an economizer installed in it. On C24H and C30H units, also remove the lower partition blank-off plate if the unit has a CHCRV-3 installed in it.

14. Remove the upper support angle now if a top outlet curb.

15. Verify the curb is square.

16. Raise the unit to the curb with a suitable lift and engage the top of the unit to the curb first by slightly tipping the unit toward the curb. On top outlet

curbs, ensure the unit is underneath the lip on the top outlet box. Caulk may be applied under the lip of the top outlet box if desired.

17. Engage nuts and washers (supplied) loosely to the top two (2) bolts in the curb to help keep the top of the unit in position.

18. Pivot the unit down to engage the remainder of the bolts and fasten securely to the curb with nuts and washers (supplied) (see Figure 18).

19. Apply a liberal amount of caulk across the top seam of the curb where it meets the unit or top outlet box. Also apply caulk where the curb or top box meet the wall (see Figures 19 and 20).

20. Connect power wires and thermostat wires to the units. Use flexible conduit to maintain vibration isolation. Use of rigid conduit is not recommended and could cancel the benefits of the curb.

FIGURE 13Electric Heat Clearance

SIDE SECTION VIEW OF SUPPLY AIR DUCT FOR WALL MOUNTED UNIT SHOWING 1/4" CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLE SURFACES.

WARNINGA minimum of 1/4" clearance must be maintained between the supply air duct and combustible materials. This is required for the first 3' of ducting.

It is important to ensure that the 1/4" minimum spacing is maintained at all points.

Failure to do this could result in overheating the combustible material and may result in a fire causing damage, injury or death.
