SECTION I: GENERAL
The outdoor units are designed to be connected to a matching indoor
coil with sweat connect lines. Sweat connect units are factory charged
with refrigerant for a matching indoor coil plus 15 feet of field supplied
lines.
Matching indoor coils can be used with a thermostatic expansion valve
(TXV) or an orifice. Refer to the Tabular Data Sheet or to the Technical
Guide for the proper selection.
