    TESTING AND INSPECTION Leaking Test 1. Connect the charging hose of the manifold valve to charge the end of the low-pressure valve. 2. Add dry nitrogen to a pressure of 200 lbs. Tightly close both high- and low-pressure valves. 3. Leak-test flare fittings with soap bubbles. If no leak is detected, release nitrogen. C UTION Use vacuum pump, rather than refrigerant, to discharge air when installing the unit.
  • Page 23 TESTING AND INSPECTION Vacuum Procedure (con’t) 7. Confirm that manifold valves are closed and disconnect the vacuum pump. 8. Open the service valves to the fully ‘back-seat’ position to let the refrigerant flow to the indoor unit and balance the pressure in system. Important: Do not allow air to enter the connection pipe when removing the hose.
