Figure 11. Indoor coil with two distributors (single-circuit TTA/TWA units)
1
Pitch the liquid line 1 inch per 10 feet (1 cm per
3 m) so that the liquid refrigerant drains toward
the indoor coil. Use the liquid-line size
recommended in Table 2, p. 20,
2
Provide one expansion valve (TXV)
per distributor.
TWA heat pumps only: Provide one check
valve for each expansion valve.
3
Pitch the gas line leaving the coil so that it
slopes away from the coil by 1 inch per 10 feet
(1 cm per 3 m).
4
Arrange the gas line so that suction gas leaving
the coil flows downward, past the lowest gas-
header outlet, before turning upward. Use a
double-elbow configuration on all lower branch
circuits to isolate the TXV bulb from suction-
header conditions. See "Gas Line: Routing, "
5
For all coil branch circuits in the gas line, use a
tube diameter that is one size smaller than the
gas-line size recommended in
6
For vertical risers, use the tube diameter
recommended in Table 2 or
the top of the riser is at least 1 foot (30 cm)
above the lowest point.
7
Pitch the gas line by 1 inch per 10 feet (1 cm per
3 m) toward the indoor coil.
8
Insulate the gas line.
