Fire Separation
Fire separation distances must be in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 6 ofNFPA
501A, 2003 edition (incorporated by reference, see § 3285.4) or the requirements of the LAHJ.
The installation instructions must clearly indicate this requirement in a 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 minitnie 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 home 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 85/September 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.

PLEASE READ THIS MANUAL BEFORE BEGINNING SET-UP Fedeml Home Cconstruuction
And Safety Standards
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 Construction
and Safety Standards in effect at the time of manufacture.
This manual is intended to famish information 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 part
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 notfication of
unsuitable site. If the installer determines that the home cannot be installed properly at the site,
the installer must: (1) 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 the retailer
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 construction and safety
standards. If the installer notices and recognizes failures to comply with the construction and

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 (LAHJ). These Model Installation Standards do not attempt to comprehensively
address such requirements. However, HUD recommends that the manufacturer's installation
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) Drainage structures. Ditches and culverts used to drain surface runoff meet the requirements
of the LAHJ and are considered in the overall site preparation.
Permits, alterations, and on -site structures
(a) Issuance of permits. 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 aregistered professional engineer or registered architect.

GAS FUEL CONNECTION
Connection to a natural gas supply is provided througfi locals 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
responsibility 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 by other 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 (1/4 PSI). This pressure range is the
limit for safe and effective operation of this gas piping 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)
design 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 LAHJ, 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 of the under floor enclosure, are. considered
and anchorage requirements are accommodated as set out in § 3285.401. 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 SEUASCE 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 insulative properties of the under floor enclosure, are
considered, and the foundation is 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 SEUASCE 32-01 (incorporated by reference, see §
3285.4).
3. Sizing of footings. The sizing and layout of footings depends on the load bearing
capacity of the soil, footings, and the piers. See § § 3285.202 and 3285.303, and Table to
3285.312.
4. 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 of 40 psf or greater, a professional engineer or
registered architect must determine the maximum sidewall opening permitted without
perimeter su=rts1dW1MMad 1 igned 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 Figures 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.
POSTTION1NG
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 locale 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 structure (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 experienced 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.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Your home is designed to be connected to a service nominally rated 120/240 volts, 3-wire AC,
.with grounded neutral. The connection to the home is a feeder, not a service and is through a 4-
wire feeder system. When wiring the feeder, a grounding (green) conductor must be installed,
and the neutral (white) conductor must not be grounded in the home distribution panel. A
raceway is provided from the distribution panel to the underside of the home. A suitable conduit
fitting or a junction box must be installed on the exposed end of the raceway as shown in Figure
31. See Table 7 for junction box sizes required. The connection location is identified by a label
on the exterior siding of your home which reads "This connection for 120/240 volt, 3-pole, 4-
wire, 60 hertz Ampere Supply". The blank will contain the required supply ampere rating.
ELECTRICAL POWER SUPPLY FEEDER
The electrical power supply feeders from the service pole to the electrical panel in your home are
not provided by Nobility Homes.
It is important for your safety that the power supply wiring to your home be installed by a
qualified electrician. This installation must be done in conformance with the "National Electrical
Code', The Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standards, and any local codes.

• The mixed water outlet from the valve should be used to
supply outlets used primarily for personal hygiene purposes.
• It Is recommended that the valve is Installed as close as
possible to the point of use; however, It may be fitted
anywhere on the hot water supply pipe.

TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT
• Prior to setting the valve It is necessary forthehotwater
source to be switched on and delivering hot wateratthe
designated temperature.
• Test the mixed water temperature at the nearest outlet being
supplied by the valve. This should be opened to allow a flow
rate of t to 1.5 gpm (4 to 6 L/min).
• A thermometer must be used at the nearest outlet to the
valve to ensure the correct mixed water temperature is
achieved.
• Allow the water to run for at least one minute to ensure the
mixed water temperature has settled.
• To adjust the mixed outlet temperature of the valve, remove
the cap to gain access to the adjusting spindle.The spindle
should be rotated -clockwise to reduce the temperature,
counter -clockwise to increase the temperature -until the
desired set point Is reached. (Refer to diagram 4).

CHECKING / SERVICING THE VALVE
• We recommend that the valve is checked at least once per
yearto ensure its continued function. For installations with
poor or unknown water quality, orother adverse supply
conditions , it may be necessary to check the valve at more
frequent intervals.
• The temperature should be checked at the same outletas
was used for commissioning in the first Instance. Ifthe
temperature is more than 3•F from the commissioning
temperature, refer to faultfinding guide on the next page.
• There maybe some variation in the temperature of the water
9 from the thermostatic mixing valve due to seasonal
temperature variations in the cold water supply.
• If the water supply is of poor quality, a filter or strainer
should be fitted to the system.

Tile jacking -and -blocking procedure - is as follows: -
Remove handle.
1. After the home is located in its final position, level it front to rear by using the hitch jack.
2. Jack up one side of the home by placing one jack just forward of the front spring hanger
and the other just behind the rear spring hanger. These two jacks must be operated
simultaneously to raise the home. Install footings and piers; one just forward of the front
jack and another just behind the rear jack (taking care not to exceed the correct spacing
selected from Table 2).
3. Next, jack the main frame beam at the front and position a pier within V V of the end of

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 for the other side of the home. The home should now be roughly
level from side to side.
5. Place remaining pier supports under the main frame beam on each side taking care to
maintain maximum distance of no more than the spacing determined from Table 2, with
piers located within IT" of each end of the beam. See Figure 4.

ANTI -SCALD VALVES
Anti -scald valves have been installed on all tubs, tub/showers and showers in the home. After
water Imes.have been flushed, the outlet temperature at each tub, tub/shower and shower MUST
be tested to ensure that it does not exceed;120 degrees F (49 degrees C). Water should run for at
least two minutes on the hottest setting before taking temperature reading.
Temperature may be adjusted using the instruction provided with the valve. In no case should the
temperature exceed 120 degrees F (49 degrees C) as this may result in. serious bodily harm
and/or death. REFER TO INSTALLATION MANUAL PAGES 45B AND 45C FOR VALVE
MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS. (ALSO 45D,45E)

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.
Energize 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 checking that all alarms are sounding at the same time. Continue this process
until all alarm 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.
UTILITY CONNECTIONSANSTRUCTIONS
WATER SUPPLY
The potable water supply is connected through a standard '/ inch pipe fitting to the supply inlet
mandatory master shutoff valve. This valve is not factory installed and must be installed in the
water supply line underneath or adjacent to the home. This connection is identified by a tag on
the exterior of the home labeled "Fresh Water Connection".
The water system must be inspected and tested for leaks after completion at the site. A typical
test adapter assembly might consist of the following:

1. % inch threaded inlet connection fittingLLr
2. Water pressure gauge to 100psi minimum
3. Air injector inlet with valve

WATER DISTRIBUTION PIPING INTERCONNECTION
FOR MULTI SECTION UNITS
When multiple sections of a multi wide unit have water requirements, the water distribution lines
protrude through the bottom of each section at the marriage or joining wall. A union is installed
in each line to interconnect the two sections. Make certain the hot and cold water lines of the
first section are connected to the proper hot and cold line of the second section. Since these
interconnections are outside the home they are subject to freezing. Proper precautions will have
to be taken to prevent freezing damage to these lines by the installer. See Figure 26 and page 45,

CROSSOVER ELECTRICAL INTERCONNECTION
(Refer to Figures 27, 28 and 29)
Power between the sections of a multi wide unit is provided by interconnections at the joining
wall. Most interconnections are of the snap together type. If the snap together type is not
furnished then the interconnections are to be made in a junction box located in the end wall of
the section in which the main distribution panel is located. An extended length of cable is
provided on the opposite section for on -site interconnection. The interconnection must be made
inside the junction.box provided using proper size wire nuts with insulating covers. The
interconnection may be made in the main distribution panel box if it is located at the crossover
location. The various leads are marked so that proper interconnection can be performed.
However, it is the responsibility of the installer to check for proper circuitry before and after
interconnection is completed.

Multi Wide Alimment Procedure
(Double, Triple and Quad section)
1. 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 an angle 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 wails, 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 En
z
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 z
beam. z
O
U
b) Close the gap in the ceiling by raising the outside frame beam using two hydraulic jacks
placed ahead of and behind the wheels. z
z
c) 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 the frame support beams evenly
supported, carefully raise the outside corner of the second section (and lower the outside
rear comer) 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 beam together. When the top and walls are aligned and
fastened, proceed with leveling of the second section.

engineering practice, must design anchorage for the special wind conditions. This home must
not be installed within 1500 feet of a coastline in Wind Zones If or III. Installation of a tie
down and anchoring system as required by Nobility Homes will also meet the overall design
requirements of Wind Zone I, Standard Wind.
TIE DOWN SYSTEM OVERVIEW
Tie downs are separated into four categories:
1. Sidewall vertical and frame diagonal ties
2. Shear wall ties (single wide/multi wide)
3. Ridge beam vertical ties
4. Longitudinal ties
1. Sidewall vertical clips are painted white, a diagonal frame tie and a vertical.tie, from this
clip, must be connected to a double headed anchor with an allowable load of 3150 lb. min.
Refer to Figures 15, 16, 17, 18, & 20 and Tables 4, 5, or 6.
2. Shear wall tie clips are painted brown, a vertical tie from the clip must be connected to a
ground anchor with an allowable load of 1150 lb. min. if thereis no brown tie at the
marriage line, then, anchor the I-beam closest to the center line of the home. Refer to Figures
19 or 21.
3. Ridge beam/column vertical tie clips are painted green; a vertical tie from the clip must be
connected to a ground anchor with an allowable load of 3150 lb. min. Both halves may be
connected to the same anchor. Refer to Figure 20.
4. Longitudinal ties are required on units less than 52' in Wind Zone II and 63' in Wind Zone
III. Connect the ground anchor with an allowable load of 3150 lb. min. Refer to Figure 22.
All tie down strap locations will be indicated on the house by a painted clip. For maximum tie
down spacing refer to Table 4, 5 or 6 for Wind Zones 11 and III.

INSTALL STRAPS
Follow the instructions below to conned straps from the home to sidewati frame, end
wall frame and vertical anchors.
Always protect straps at sharp comers including around 1-beams with radius clips or
other methodst t). Radius dips may be fabricated from 26ga (min) by two inch
wide galvanized steel strap formed to fit around comers: - - -

SIDEWALL FRAME ANCHORS
Install straps to sidewall frame anchors as follows:
1. Connect strap to home. Connect one end of the strap to the home connec-
tion point using approved buckles or clips (swivel or hook clip preferred).

2. Connect strap to anchor. Connect the other end of the strap to the split bolt
in the anchor. Leave enough strap length to be able tom' fuve complete
turns around the bolt before it.baoomes.tight (app'roximately 2-112 inches per.
turn or 13 inches total). Fewer than five turns and the strap may not hold onto
the bolt when force is applied. Conversely, too many turns may not fit within
the U-channel of the anchor head. Follow the procedure outlined in Figure 87.

3. Pretension anchor. For anchors with stabilizer plates, pretension the anchor
by pulling it up fo the stabilizer plate using the strap and take-up bolt to move
the anchor head. Continue pulling the strap until the plate moves a small
amount (about 1/2 inch). This is called packing the plate and it will yield the
strongest resistance (the bottom of the anchor head should be maximum one
in ch above the top of the stabilizer plate).
