IECC 2015 which requires fractional hp motors to be EC. The models below are PSC motors and do not meet the code requirement.

Q16: Please clarify –“Hand is determined by facing the blower end.” Facing the blower end, meaning looking at the fan’s intake or the fan’s discharge?
A16: The way each fan coil unit was assigned was by standing in front of the unit and looking at what side the two water lines and drain lines were on. If you’re looking at the unit from the center of the room and the drain/water lines are on the left, then it is left-handed.
