Re: How much lean is acceptable on a Condenser ? See the photos
'Level' may not be a correct standard anymore for some units. I looked at some 16 SEER units last year (and took the cert. class for 16 SEER). The unit manuals and class literature both stated that the units should be slightly out of level to help drainage at the bottom of the unit.
I don't think they were talking about the 1st picture though. The lean on the 2nd pic isn't too bad but inadequate support.
