    Insulating Interior line sets Insulate all interior refrigerant lines and their connections. The compressor section contains the expansion valve and the 18” liquid line is more likely to “sweat” as it condenses moisture from the interior air. Use at least a 3/4 inch wall closed-cell insulation that is REAR non-corrosive to copper to insulate all refrigerant lines.
