(3) Do a leak test of all joints of the tubing (both indoor
and outdoor) and all service valves. Bubbles indicate
a leak. Wipe off the soap with a clean cloth after a
leak test.
(4) After the system is found to be free of leaks, relieve
the nitrogen pressure by loosening the charge hose
connector at the nitrogen cylinder. When the system
pressure is reduced to normal, disconnect the hose
from the cylinder.
Evacuation
(1) Attach the charge hose end described in the preced-
ing steps to the vacuum pump to evacuate the tub-
ing and indoor unit. Confirm that the "Lo" knob of the
manifold valve is open. Then, run the vacuum pump.
The operation time for evacuation varies with the
tubing length and capacity of the pump. The follow-
ing table shows the amount of time for evacuation:
