If aninstallation is madein which it is more desirable tomount the filter exterior tothe unit, in the return duct work,or
otherwise, either the permanent filter suppliedor a disposable filter may be used. If a disposable filter is used, the
minimum area required is as follows:
MODELNO, FILTERAREA(MIN.)
PWC182 480 sq. in,
PWC242 480 sq. in.
PWC302 480 sq. in.
THERMOSTAT
The room thermostatshouldbe locatedonan insidewallwhereit will not be subject todrafts, sun exposureor heat
fromelectrical fixtures or appliances. Followthe manufacturer's instructions enclosedwith thethermostat for general
installation procedures. Color codedinsulated wires (# !8 AWG)should be usedto connectthe thermostat to the unit.

DEFROSTCYCLE- if outdoor ambient conditions are such that frost forms on theoutdoorcoil, the defrost control
monitors the need for andinitiatesandterminates defrost cycles as neccessary to maintain system performance. The
defrost controlis time/temperature initiated and temperatureterminatedwith a maximum defrost time (time-out) of
10 minutes. Time betweendefrost cycles is pre-set at 60 minute intervals at the factory, but can be field adjusted to
30, 80, or 90 minutes. Seeillustralion for field adjustment of defrost timing. For best performance in RegionIV, the
PWC242defrost interval should be adjusted to 30 minutes.
