Ducting & Air Flow - 4100 Series

Variable Speed (ECM) Supply Air Blower

For air delivery, the Comfort Plus is equipped with a variable speed supply air blower. When interfacing with a heat pump, the A-Coil MUST be placed on the return air side.

To maintain a room temperature of 85°F/ 29°C or less in the mechanical room, a 24" x 24" opening can be installed in the area or a 6" x 6" non-closing register can be cut into the return air duct. Refer to Placement and Clearance Requirements for more information.

The 4100 Series is factory configured for a left-to-right or right-to-left airflow. In either airflow direction, the holes directly above the air outlet on the right side of the 4100 Series MUST be contained in the duct system. (See Figure 8 for reference to these air holes.)

If a down flow configuration is desired, a down flow kit must be ordered from the factory (Order Item #1301578) and the system MUST be raised a minimum of 10" off the ground. An 18" pedestal is available (Order Item #1301585) to elevate the Comfort Plus.

WARNING

HAZARDOUS VOLTAGE: Risk of electric shock. Can cause injury or death.

Unbox

Unbox the supply air blower plenum assembly.

Remove Metal Plate

Remove and discard metal plate securing supply air blower to plenum assembly.

Attach Support Bracket

Locate the plenum support bracket shipped in the plenum box. Attach the bracket to the supply air side using the blunt tip screws supplied. Refer to Figure 8 for proper positioning of the plenum support bracket.

Attach Wiring Harnesses

Attach the supply blower wiring harness located in the base of the system to the blower. Place any excess wiring in the base of the system below the radiant heat shield (Figure 8).

When routing the harness to the supply air blower, the harness must route to the side of the air deflector in the bottom of the supply air blower housing.

Verify Motor

Verify that the blower is installed in the plenum with the motor facing away from the system (Figure 9).

Attach Plenum

Attach the supply air blower plenum to the Comfort Plus by drilling two 1/8” holes per edge and using the self tapping screws supplied in the hardware package.

Connect Ducting

Connect both the return air and supply air ducting systems in the structure to the Comfort Plus system. Be sure the air holes just above the air outlet on the right side are contained in the duct system. (See Figure 8 for reference to the location of these holes).

Connect Supply

Connect the supply air duct in the structure directly to the system's air outlet located on the top panel.

Adjust CFM

Adjust the CFM setting at the variable speed low voltage circuit board as shown in Figure 10.

NOTE: External static pressure should not exceed .75 inches water column.

With 2 stage Heat Pump, a Stage 1 heat call results in 70% of selected CFM.

Ensure the W/E jumper is On

The W/E jumper (Figure 10) MUST be in the ON position or the blower will not operate with an E call from the thermostat.
