Thank you for purchasing a Nobility Home. Your home was designed, engineered, inspected,
tested and approved to be in conformance with the Federal Manufactured Home Constriction
- -- and Safety Standards in effect at the time of manufacture.
This manual is intended to furnish iaf6r matidn for site preparation, foundation and piers, tie
down and electrical, plumbing and utility connections.
THE IMPORTANCE OF CORRECT SET-UP CANNOT BE OVEREMPHASIZED. Correct
set-up is absolutely essential to homeowner satisfaction. If.you are not certain of the proper
procedure, or you encounter unusual conditions, please refer to the procedures contained in this
manual, or contact your dealer or factory service representatives. Set-up should be done only by
qualified and preferably professionally trained installers. Installer means the person or entity
who is retained to engage in or who engages in, the business of directing, supervising,
controlling or correcting the initial installation of a manufactured home, as governed by pan
3285 of this chapter. The contractor or dealer performing the set-up must be licensed and
bonded in the state of Florida. The homeowner, with the dealer and set-up crew supervisor,
should inspect the work to see if the home is properly set-up and any problems found should be
corrected as soon as possible.
Manufactured homes are designed to meet specific wind, thermal and roof load zones. The zone
maps are included on the following page. The data plate is located in the master bedroom closet
and specifies which zones the home was designed for. A home placed in the wrong zone does
not meet the requirements of the Federal Manufactured Home Construction and Safety
Standards.
Installation suitability. (a) Site appropriateness. Before installing a manufactured home at any
site, the installer must assure that the site is suitable for installing the home by verifying that (1)
The site is accessible; (2) The site is appropriate for the foundation or support and stabilization
system that is to be used to install the home in accordance with the federal installation standards
or alternative requirements in part 3285 of this chapter; (3) The data plate required by §3280.5 of
this chapter is affixed to the home, that the home is designed for the roof load, wind load, and
thermal zones that are applicable to the intended site; and (4) The installation site is protected
from surface run-off and can be graded in accordance with part. 3285, (b) Installer notification of
unsuitable site. If the installer determines that the home cannot be installed properly at the site,
the installer must: (I) Notify the purchaser or other person with whom the installer contracted for
the installation work, identifying the reasons why the site is unsuitable; (2) Notify thexetahcr
that contracted with the purchaser for the sale of the home, identifying the reasons why the site is
unsuitable; (3) Notify HUD, identifying the -reasons why the site is unsuitable; (4) Decline to
install the home until the site and the home are both verified by. the installer as suitable for the
site under this section; and (5) Ensure that all unique characteristics of the site have been fully
addressed. (c) Installer notifications offailures to comply with the consrrucrion and safeo;
standards. If the installer notices and recognizes failures to comply with the construction and

Separation
C
p�mt
Fire separation distances must be in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 6 of NFPA
6�
501A, 2003 edition (incorporated by reference, see § 3285.4) or the requirements of the LAHJ.
The installation instructions must clearly indicate this requirement in at separate section and must
caution installers to take into account any local requirements on fire separation.
Flood Hazard Areas
Prior to the initial installation of a new manufactured home, the installer is responsible for
determining whether the manufactured home site lies wholly or partly within a.special flood
hazard area as shown on the LAHJ's Flood Insurance Rate Map, Flood Boundary and Floodway
Map, or Flood Hazard Boundary Map; or if no LAHJ, in accordance with NFIP regulations. If
so located, and before an installation method is agreed upon, the map and supporting studies
adopted by the LAHJ must be used to determine the flood hazard zone and base flood elevation
at the site.
Manufactured homes located wholly or partly within a special flood areas must be installed on
foundations engineered to incorporate methods and practices that minimize flood damage during
the base flood, in accordance with the requirements of the LAHJ, 44 CFR 60.3(a) through (e);
and other provisions of 44CFR referenced by those paragraphs.
Appliances installed on the manufactured Imome site in flood hazard areas must be anchored and
elevated to or above the same elevation as the lowest elevation of the lowest floor of the home.
Appliance air inlets and exhausts in flood hazard areas must be located at or above the same
elevation as the lowest elevation of the lowest floor of the home. For related guidance refer to
FEMA 85iSeptember 1985, Manufactured Home installation in Flood Hazard Areas, 1985
(incorporated by reference, see § 3285.4).
In flood hazard areas, foundations, anchorings, and support systems must be capable of resisting
loads associated with design flood and wind events, and homes must be installed on foundation
supports that are designed and anchored to prevent floatation, collapse, or lateral movement of
the structure.
The foundation specifications are not designed to address floods loads.

To help prevent settling or sagging, the foundation must be constructed on firm, undisturbed soil
or fill compacted to at least 90 percent of its maximum relative density. All organic material
such as grass, roots,, twigs, and wood scraps must be removed in areas where footings are to be
placed. After removal of organic material, the.home site must be graded or otherwise prepared
to ensure adequate drainage, in accordance with §3285.203.
Foundations for homes designed for and located in areas with roof live loads greater than 40 psf
must be designed by the manufacturer for the special snow load conditions, in accordance with
acceptable engineering practice. Where site or other conditions prohibit the use of the
manufacturer's instructions, a registered professional engineer or registered architect must design
the foundation for the special snow. load conditions. Ramadas may be used in areas with roof
live loads greater than 40 psf. Ramades are to be self-supporting, except that any connection to.
the borne must be for weatherproofing only.
The soil classification and bearing capacity of the soil must be determined before the foundation
is constructed and anchored. The soil classification and bearing capacity must he determined by
one or more of the following methods, unless the soil bearing capacity is established as permitted
in.paragraph (f) of this section: (a) Soil test. Soil tests that are in accordance with generally
accepted engineering practice; or (b) Soil records. Soil records of the applicable Local Authority

GENERAL INFORMATION
Planning and Permitting
The planning and permitting processes, -as -well as utility- connection,_ access, and other
requirements, are outside of HUD's authority and may be governed by Local Authority Having
Jurisdiction (LAHI). These Model Installation Standards do not attempt to comprehensively
address such. requirements. However, HUD recommends that the manufacturer'sinstallauon
instructions include the information and advisories in this subpart J, in order to protect the
manufactured home, as constructed in accordance with the MHCSS.
Moving manufactured home to location
It is recommended that the LAHJ be informed before moving the manufactured home to the site.
It is also recommended that the manufactured home is not to be moved to the site until the site is
prepared in accordance with subpart C of this part and when the utilities are available :as required
by the LAHJ. Examples of related areas that might be addressed in the installation instructions'
for meeting this recommendation. include: (a) Access for the transporter. Before attempting to
move a home, ensure that the transportation equipment and home can be routed to the installation
site and that all special transportation permits required by the LAHJ have been obtained.
(b) Drafauge stnictares. Ditches and culverts used to drain surface runoffmeet the requirements
of the LAHJ and are considered in the overall site preparation.
Permits, alterations, and ou-site structures
(a) Issuance.ofpernits. All necessary LAHJ fees should be paid and permits should be obtained,
which may include verification that LAHJ requirements regarding encroachments in streets,
yards, and courts are obeyed and that permissible setback and fire separation distances from
property lines and public roads are met. (b) Alterations. Prior to making any alterations to a
home or its installation, contact the LAHJ to determine if plan'approval and permits are required.
(c) Installation of on -site structures. Each accessory building and structure is designed to support
all of its.own live and dead loads, unless the structure, including any attached garage, carport,
deck, and porch, is to be attached to the manufactured home and is otherwise included in the
installation instructions or designed b are istered professional engineer or registered architect.

NOBILITY HOMES, INC.
GAS FUEL CONNECTION
Connection to a natural gas supply is provided through local utility systems. The installation of a
supply line and connection to your home is the responsibility of the utility company serving your
home. Connection to a liquefied petroleum (LP) gas supply is provided through various local LP
gas distributors. The installation of a storage tank, supply line and connection is the
responsibiliy of the distributor selected by you.
If a gas fuel supply system is provided with your home, the gas supply inlet is through a standard
'/. inch pipe fitting. This connection is identified by a tag on the exterior of the home labeled
"Combination LP Gas and Natural Gas System". The gas system of your home was tested at the
factory and should be tested again at the time of connection by qualified service personnel.
Before turning on -gas; -the person making-the.connection should make certain that all gas
connections have been made tight, all appliance valves are turned off, any unconnected outlets
are capped, the appliances are designed for the type gas connected and they are equipped with
the correct orifices.
CAUTION: GAS APPLIANCES INSTALLED BY NOBILITY HOMES, INC. ARE
NORMALLY EQUIPPED.FOR NATURAL GAS. EACH APPLIANCE MUST BE
CHECKED FOR THE CORRECT ORIFICES FOR THE TYPE GAS CONNECTED.
ANY GAS APPLIANCE INSTALLED IN THE FIELD IS PART OF CONSTRUCTION
AND MUST BE COMPLETED UNDER AN AC (ALTERNATE CONSTRUCTION)
APPROVAL.
After turning on the gas, the technician should immediately test the gas piping and appliances for
leakage with approved bubble solution. If no leaks are found then all of the pilot lights should be
lit and the appliance controls checked for proper operation by the technician_
When not connected for use, the gas inlet should be securely capped. No additions,
modifications, adjustments or repairs should be made byother than qualified personnel.
Replacement parts must be listed or certified for their use.
GAS PIPING LIMITATIONS
The gas piping supply system has been designed for a pressure not exceeding 14 inch water
column (1/2 PSI) and not less,than 7 inch water column (114 PSI). This pressure range is the
limit for safe and effective operation of this gaspiping system. The installation of an LP gas
tank or natural gas supply line always requires the installation of a pressure reducing valve since
the supply pressure in both cases is higher than the maximum 14 inch water column(1/2 PSI)
desiLun pressure.

2. Placement in freezing climates. Footings placed in freezing climates must be designed
using methods and practices that prevent the.effects of frost heave by one of the
following methods:
a. Conventional footings. Conventional footings must be placed below the frost line
depth for the site unless an insulated foundation or monolithic slab is used (refer
to §§ 3285.312(b)(2) and 3285.312(b)(3)). When the frost line depth is not
available from the LAW, a registered professional engineer, a registered
architect, or registered geologist must be consulted to determine the required frost
line depth for the manufactured home site. This is not subject to the provisions in
§ 3285.2(c) that also require review by the manufacturer and approval by its
DAPIA for any variations to the manufacturer's installation instructions for
support and anchoring.
b. Monolithic slab systems. A monolithic, slab is permitted above the frost line when
all relevant site -specific conditions, including soil characteristics, site preparation,
ventilation, and insulative properties ofthe under floor enclosure, are considered
and anchorage requirements are accommodated as set out in § 3295.401. The
monolithic slab system must be designed by a registered professional engineer or
registered architect:
i. In accordance with acceptable engineering practice to prevent the effects
of frost heave; or
ii. In accordance with SEI/ASCE 32-01 (incorporated by reference, see §
3285.4).
c. Insulated foundations_ An insulated foundation is permitted above the frost line,
when all relevant site -specific conditions, including soil characteristics, site
preparation, ventilation, and insulativc propertiesof the under floor enclosure, are
considered; and -the foundation is designed by a tegistwed professional engineer
or registered architect:
L In accordance with acceptable engineering practice to prevent the effects
of frost heave; or
ii. In accordance with SEVASCE 32-01 (incorporated by reference, see §
3285.4).
3. Sizing of footings. The sizing and layout offootings depends on the load bearing
capacity of the soil, footings, and the piers. See §§ 3285.202 and 3285.303, and Table to
3285.312.
Place piers on both sides of sidewall exterior doors, patio doors, and sliding glass doors;
under porch posts, factory -installed fireplaces and fireplace stoves; under jamb studs at
multiple window openings; and at any other sidewall openings 48 inches or greater in
width. Piers are to be installed at each end of joint wall openings 48 inches and greater.
See Figure 3, 4, and 5. For roof loads of40, psf or greater, a professional engineer or
registered architect must determine the maximum sidewall opening permitted without
perimeter suffst�ixt(i�r4V-J resigned for 40 psf roof loads.

5. Additional end wall piers are to be installed under double wide joint edge joists at the
point of end wall juncture. They should span both joint edge joists and be located
adjacent to the end cross member/outrigger. The pier should be capable of supporting a
3100 pound load, See Figuies 4 and 5.
6. Additional side wall piers maybe necessary. Concentrated weight along outside walls
(like a piano) may create a sagging condition. This can be corrected or prevented by
installing piers under the edge joist.
POSITIONING
Determine the -appropriate -foundation system -for the local site and wind exposure conditions as
described in the Support Requirements section. Establish the location of each pier -and tie down - --
point for the length and width of the home and the locate in which the home is being installed.
Install any components that might be difficult to place after the home is in position. An example
of this would be ground anchors, poured footings, etc. Then move the home into the desired
final position.
Reminders before jacking...
1. Use only jacks in good condition with minimum rating of 10 tons.
2.. Use jack reinforcing plates when jacking the frame main beam to avoid damage to the
beam or home stiucture (see Figure 6 for typical).
3. Use a firm support or footing under the jack,base to prevent tipping or settling of the
jack under load.
4. Always follow the sequence of jacking outlined below to avoid overstressing structural
members.
5. Use a minimum of two experiences) installation men and closely coordinate jacking and
blocking:activities.
6. Keep clear from under the main frame beam to prevent injury should the home
suddenly drop by accident.

WATER DISTRIBUTION PIPING PRESSURE LIMITATIONS
When the local water supply pressure exceeds 80 psi to the manufactured home, a pressure-
reducing valve must be installed. An identified and accessible shutoff valve must be iostalled
between the water supply and the inlet. The water riser for the shutoffvatve connection most be
located underneath or adjacent to the home. The shutoff valve must be a full flow gate or ball
valve, or equivalent valve.
WATER DISTRIBUTION PIPING FREEZE PROTECTION
(Refer to Figure 26)
Water line crossovers completed during installation must be protected from freezing._ The freeze
protection design requirements are located in, and 'must be designed in accordance with,
§ 3280.603 of this chapter. if subject to freezing temperatures, the water connection must be
wrapped with insulation or otherwise protected to prevent freezing. In areas subject to freezing
or subfreezing temperatures, exposed sections of water supply piping, shutoff valves, pressure
reducers, and pipes in water heater compartments must be insulated or otherwise protected from
freezing. Only pipe heating cable listed for manufacturai home use is permitted to be used, and
it must be installed in accordance with the cable manufacruer installation instructions. The
water system must be inspected and tested for leaks after completion at the site. The installation
instructions must provide testing requirements that are consistent with § 3280.612 of this
chapter. The water heater must be disconnected when using an air -only test. An electrical
receptacle is provided on the outside of your home near the water supply inlet for the installation
of a heat tape. NOTE: IF A HEAT TAPE IS USED. IT MUST BE LISTED FOR USE WITH
MANUFACTURED HOMES
— — ` — DRAIN CONNECTION - -
Your home is designed for a single drain outlet connection. A drain piping schematic is
provided along with the necessary pipe and fittings to properly complete the plumbing system.
FLOOD LEVEL TEST
A flood level test is required after the home is set-up and level. Ping the main drain, all fixtures
shall be connected, and the entire system shall be filled with water to the rim of the water closet
bowl. Tub and shower drains shall be plugged. After all trapped air has been released; the test
shall be sustained for not less than 15 minutes without evidence of leaks. Then the system shall
be unplugged and emptied. The waste piping above the level ofthe water closet bowl shall then
be tested and show no indication of leakage when the high fixtures are filled with water and
emptied simultaneously to obtain the maximumpossibleflow in the drain piping.

SMOKE ALARM WIRING AND TESTING
If smoke alarms are located on more than one unit in the home then an interconnection is
required between units this is accomplished by snapping together the crossover connector.
Energiie the smoke alarm circuit (all alarms will be on the same circuit). For single wide homes,
press the test button on the smoke alarm until alarm sounds, then release, check all other smoke
alarms to verify they are alarming at the same time. Move to the next smoke alarm and test the
same as above chocking that all alarms are sounding at the same time. Continue this process
until all alarms have been tested For multi wide homes, energize smoke alarm circuit. Test all
smoke alarms in all units as outlined above. If one or more alarms fail, check wiring; check
battery,, check smoke alarm installation then retest, if failure continues, replace alarm. Retest
until all alarms are working properly.

NOBILITY HOMES, INC.
The following are a few suggestions on things to do and not to do when setting up a home:
!. Make sure you have ctiouglr help to do thejoh; at least two experienced people.
2. Make sure you have the proper equipment.
3. Iftwo people an: working together, make sure you do things together. Especially in
jacking and lowering the home.
4. When jacking the home up, never get under or between the beams!!! Stay clear so in
the event it falls, you won't be pinned under it.
5. If you set your first blocks just behind the hitch, until you have it lowered, it will be, a
lot easier to get the hitch out. Then move the block's up to the proper spacing using
jacks.
6. When fastening the floors together, have someone inside to make sure they are even on
top. This also holds true with the ceiling. Sometimes it is necessary to use a jack to
level the ceiling before installing the screws:
7. If the floors are flush on both ends but the front top of one section is sticking out in
front of thb other section and the rear ends are the opposite, this will not let the ceiling
line up: This must be corrcctpl before the top is connected together. To eliminate this
problem, put one jack under the outside front comer of the section sticking out. Place
the other j ack under the rear outside comer of the opposite section. Now jack up both
comers at the same time until-tfie ceilings line up. Then screw the center beam
together bIm 0. efore removing the jacks.
J� See Figure 14.

NOBILITY HOMES, INC.
Multi Wide Atlerrment Procedure
(Double, Triple and Quad section)
I. Position and level the first section of the home per instructions. Excessive and/or non-
uniform jacking during the leveling will cause the home to be racked or twisted. This may
result in damage to the home. Care must be used during leveling to not distort the home.
2. Move the second section into position within 4 inches and alongside the first section,
3. Draw the two floors together using jacks, set at anangle at or near the outside spring
shackles, or winches (come -a -longs). Figures 12 and 13.
4. With the two sections together, but with no fasteners installed, check the alignment of the
end walls, interior walls, roof, and floor. Determine if the walls and/or the roof of either
section must move backwards or forward with respect to the floor: Any corrections required
can be accomplished during the leveling of the second section.
5. Alignment Procedure
a) Position the second section to bring the floor seams flush, keeping the roof slightly apart
and the end walls aligned at the floor. At this time place piers only on the inside frame
beam.
b) Close the gap in the ceiling by raising the outside frame beam using two hydraulic jacks
placed ahead of and behind the wheels.
e) IF THE TOP MUST BE MOVED FORWARD.:: With the frame support beams
evenly supported, carefully raise the outside rear comer of the second section (and lower
the outside front comer) with the hydraulic jacks. The roof should shift forward until the
end walls comes even at the top. When the walls are even, raise the outside support
frame beam evenly to close the gap.
d) IF THE TOP MUST BE MOVED BACK...With theeframe support beams evenly
supported, carefully raise the outside comer of the second section (and lower the outside
rear corner) with the hydraulic jacks. The roof should shift back until the end walls come
even at the top. When the walls are even, raise the outside frame support evenly at the
front and rear to close the gap.
e) Fasten the top of the ridge bean together. When the top and walls are aligned and
fastened, proceed with leveling of the second section.
