Add the amount of refrigerant needed for the evaporator & condenser + the line-set then
multiply by .80.
Step 1: Select the model and refrigerant charge for evaporator and condenser.

Step 2: Since the majority of refrigerant weight is in liquid form in the liquid line,
refrigerant in the hot gas line and suction line is ignored in the charging calculation.
Calculate the total of the liquid line run, then multiply the equivalent feet of line based on
line size by the correct multiplier to get the refrigerant weight needed for the Line-set.
Liquid Line OD (inches)
Example: If the liquid line of an R-410A system is 150ft of 1-1/8" pipe, then multiply
150 * 0.38 = 57lbs
Step 3: Select model and refrigerant charge of receiver based on condenser size
and circuit type
