Abstract
The air conditioning unit of the invention has a construction of the indoor air flow section which adapts it to receive and return indoor air either through its bottom area in a vertical air flow mode, or through its end wall in a horizontal air flow mode so that the unit may be either roof top mounted or slab mounted without the need of any added section or module furnished by the manufacturer. The indoor air flow section includes a draw-through refrigerant coil located in an upper quadrant of the section, a detachable panel separating two lower quadrants in the section for the vertical air flow mode and movable to separate a lower and upper quadrant for the horizontal air flow mode, and removable end wall panel means covering the end in the vertical air flow mode and being positioned to cover the bottom for the horizontal air flow mode. Additionally, the construction is such that the provision of electric heat, various air flow control options and adaptability of the unit to heat pump operation are all accommodated.
