FLARING AND CONNECTING REFRIGERANT LINES
1. Remove the protective cap from the flare fitting.
2. Remove the protective cap from the robing and cut to the
required length. Be sure that the cut is perpendicular and
clean, without burrs.
3. Slip the flare nut on the tubing and flare the tube end using
standard flaring tools.
4. Tighten the nut until resistance is met. Mark the nut and the
fitting. Using a suitable wrench tighten an additional 1/4
turn. Use the tbtlowing specified torque, according to
connection size:
Mixed-Phase line:
1/4 in.-(12.3 ft-lb.)
3/8 in.-(29 ft-lb.)
Suction line:
1/2 in.-(36 ft-lb.)
5/8 in.-(47 ft-lb.)
Both refrigerant lines
need to be insulated separatly
NOTE: The service valves on the outdoor unit must remain closed
until all 4 connections have been made.
EVACUATE TUBINGAND CHARGE THE SYSTEM When
all the fittings are connected, air must be expelled, then refriger-
ant charge must be checked and adjusted. Follow the steps below.

Connect the vacuum pump to the service port via the pressure
gage and evacuate to 500 microns to eliminate contamination
and moisture.
Disconnect the vacuum pump. Unit should maintain 500
microns for 5 minutes.
Remove the service port caps from the mixed-phase valve
and suction line valve
Open the mixed-phase valve (small valve) with an Allen
wrench.
Open the suction line valve (large valve) with an Allen
wrench.
The outdoor unit is supplied with sufficient R-22 refriger-
ant for up to 25 ft. lineset length. Add 0.9 oz. of refriger-
ant for each additional 3 ft. of tubing length.
Make sure that the valves are properly opened. Be careful not
to open them more than required as this may damage the
thread.
Replace the service port cap. Using refrigerant oil, lubricate
the cap beam and hand tighten until resistance is met. Use a
suitable wrench to tighten the cap by an additional 1/2 turn.
