  • Patent number: 4723419
    Abstract: An outdoor heat exchanger section has lower and upper cabinet sections between which a generally horizontal louvered lower section top cover is disposed. The sides of the lower cabinet section are louvered to promote the entry and upward movement of air thereinto and through a heat exchange coil disposed about the inner periphery thereof. Air drawn into the lower cabinet section is discharged though the radially louvered portion of the lower section top cover. The radial top cover louvers are angled so as to partially deflect the upwardly flowing air leaving the lower cabinet section to the horizontal. The top of the upper cabinet section is essentially flat and solid and overlies the lower cabinet section top cover louvers so that neither debris nor the elements can enter the lower cabinet section from above.
