So I am reading in the installation instructions for all Goodman CAPF cased coils, and I come across this--
The "note" part leads me to ask--Why MUST this be done? I had planned to have the parts facing opposite directions. There is plenty of service access space front and back.
I can see that the coil is not quite symmetrical front to back. But it is very close to symmetrical.
And the furnace has the usual set back of the plenum opening to allow for the intake and exhaust tubing of a high efficiency furnace. This provides a somewhat protected space above the furnace for the line set and the drain lines.
Is there any other reason--like a Code requirement?
NOTE:
The cased coil MUST be installed with the line set and
drain opening to the FRONT of the furnace.
