4.0 REFRIGERANT CONNECTIONS
All units are factory charged with Refrigerant 410A for 15 ft. [4.6 m] of line set. All
models are supplied with service valves. Keep tube ends sealed until connection is
to be made to prevent system contamination.
5.0 REPLACEMENT UNITS
To prevent failure of a new heat pump unit, the existing tubing system must be cor-
rectly sized and cleaned or replaced. Care must be exercised that the expansion
device is not plugged. For new and replacement units, a liquid line filter drier should
be installed and refrigerant tubing should be properly sized. Test the oil for acid. If
positive, a liquid line filter drier is mandatory.
6.0 INDOOR COIL
REFER TO INDOOR COIL MANUFACTURER’S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
IMPORTANT: The manufacturer is not responsible for the performance and opera-
tion of a mismatched system, or for a match listed with another manufacturer’s coil.
6.1 LOCATION
Do not install the indoor coil in the return duct system of a gas or oil furnace.
Provide a service inlet to the coil for inspection and cleaning. Keep the coil pitched
toward the drain connection.
CAUTION
When coil is installed over a finished ceiling and/or living area, it is
recommended that a secondary sheet metal condensate pan be
constructed and installed under entire unit. Failure to do so can result
in property damage.
