install a variable speed DC blower unit under and A/C coil unit with a hydronic
coil above that. The units are Goodman. I have a concern in that the
components all mounted together were installed on a fair bit of an angle on both
sides. This unit is in my basement. Should I have any concern that the tilt
will have any adverse affect on the functioning of the unit. Specifically the
bearings in the blower motor? Should I ask the contractor to make the unit
plumb?

It should be reasonably straight. I would call them back. The
bearings in the various motors don't care but the ac coil will produce
condensed water and it has to drain properly or you will have problems.

Gary,
Did you hire Bubba for this job?

install a variable speed DC blower unit under and A/C coil unit with a hydronic
coil above that. The units are Goodman. I have a concern in that the
components all mounted together were installed on a fair bit of an angle on both
sides. This unit is in my basement. Should I have any concern that the tilt
will have any adverse affect on the functioning of the unit. Specifically the
bearings in the blower motor? Should I ask the contractor to make the unit
plumb?
