    5. Line Set Installation WARNING • R-404A itself is not flammable at atmospheric pressure and temperatures up to 176°F (80°C). • R-404A itself is not explosive or poisonous. However, when exposed to high temperatures (open flames), R-404A can be decomposed to form hydrofluoric acid and carbonyl fluoride both of which are hazardous.
  • Page 27 8) Use an electronic leak detector or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Add a trace of refrigerant to the line set tubing through the service valve access ports (if using an electronic leak detector), and then raise the pressure using nitrogen gas (140 PSIG). WARNING! Do not use R-404A as a mixture with pressurized air for leak testing.
