WARNING
!
PERSONAL INJURY / ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury
or death.
Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before system
repair or final unit disposal.
Use all service ports and open all flow–control devices,
including solenoid valves.
CAUTION
!
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
If ANY refrigerant tubing is buried, provide a 6 in. (152.4
mm) vertical rise at service valve. Refrigerant tubing lengths
up to 36 in.(914.4 mm) may be buried without further
special consideration. Do not bury lines longer than 36 in.
(914.4 mm).
CAUTION
!
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
To prevent damage to unit or service valves, observe the
following:
SUse a brazing shield.
SWrap service valves with wet cloth or use a heat sink
material.
Outdoor units may be connected to indoor section using accessory
tubing package or field–supplied refrigerant grade tubing of correct
size and condition. For tubing requirements beyond 80 ft/24.38 m,
substantial capacity and performance losses can occur. Following
the recommendations in the Long Line Guideline for Split–System
Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps will reduce these losses. Refer to
Table 1 for accessory requirements. Refer to Table 2 for field
tubing diameters.
If refrigerant tubes or indoor coil are exposed to atmosphere, they
must be evacuated to 500 microns to eliminate contamination and
moisture in the system.

Using Table 3 – Additional Subcooling Required, check refrigerant
charge for maximum efficiency
Install Adapter Tube
1. Remove plastic retainer holding outdoor piston in liquid
service valve.
2. Check outdoor piston size with matching number listed on
unit rating plate.
3. Locate plastic bag taped to unit containing adapter tube.
4. Remove Teflon seal from bag and install on open end of
liquid service valve. (See Fig. 4.)
5. Remove adapter tube from bag and connect threaded nut to
liquid service valve. Tighten nut finger–tight and then with
wrench an additional 1/2 turn (15 ft–lb). DO NOT OVER
TIGHTEN!
