STUD
NON-CORROSIVE
METAL SLEEVE
REFRIGERANT LINE SET — INSTALLING
HORIZONTAL RUNS

THE LIQUID LINE TO THE SUCTION
LINE.
IMPORTANT — Refrigerant lines must not contact structure.

VERTICAL RUNS (NEW CONSTRUCTION SHOWN)
NOTE - Insulate liquid line when it is routed through areas where the
surrounding ambient temperature could become higher than the
temperature of the liquid line or when pressure drop is equal to or
greater than 20 psig.
IMPORTANT - Refrigerant lines must not contact wall

WOOD BLOCK
BETWEEN STUDS
TAPE OR
WIRE TIE
NOTE - Similar installation practices should be used if line set is
to be installed on exterior of outside wall.
