Unit performance, efficiency, and life depends,
to a large extent, on a proper system charge.
Time spent on getting the charge right at start-up
will payoff in the long run. Operating conditions
such as voltage, air flow, evaporator coil size,
and indoor and outdoor temperature and humidity
all have an effect on the system pressures and
superheat conditions.
Condensing units are factory charged for the
outdoor and indoor unit with 25ft. (7.6m) of
refrigerant lines. Charge must be added for the
interconnecting tubing.
These units should be critically charged to ensure
proper performance. Some systems may require
additional charging of refrigerant, depending on
line set lengths.
R = T X (L-25)ft
R(oz): Additional refrigerant to be charged
L(ft): The length of the refrigerant line
T(oz): The quantity of the charged refrigerant
per additional foot.

FINAL INSPECTION
Do a final visual inspection of the entire installation.
Complete any final details and clean up.
Review Unit and Remote Control Operation with
the homeowner/user.
