40MBAB: Installation Instructions
Triple Evacuation Method
The triple evacuation method should be used when vacuum pump is not
capable of pumping down to 500 microns and system does not contain
any liquid water. Refer to Fig. 42 and proceed as follows:
1. Attach refrigeration gauges and evacuate system down to 28 in. of
mercury and allow pump to continue operating for an additional 15
minutes.
2. Close service valves and shut off vacuum pump.
3. Connect a nitrogen cylinder and regulator to system and flow
nitrogen until system pressure is 2 psig.
4. Close service valve and allow system to stand for 1 hour. During this
time, dry nitrogen can diffuse throughout the system absorbing
moisture.
5. Repeat this procedure as indicated in Fig. 42. The system should
now be free of any contaminants and water vapor.

Final Tubing Check
Check to be certain factory tubing on both the indoor and outdoor unit has
not shifted during shipment. Ensure tubes are not rubbing against each
other or any sheet metal. Pay close attention to the feeder tubes, making
sure wire ties on feeder tubes are secure and tight.

This electric auxiliary heat module is internally mounted in the air
handler. DO NOT mount in the ductwork.
If the unit needs to be equipped with the electric auxiliary heat module, check
the electric auxiliary heat module specification that is compatible with the
unit to avoid unnecessary consequences caused by improper matching and
refer to Product Data Manual.
INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
