Connecting Refrigerant Tubing Between the Indoor

& Outdoor Unit

CAUTION:

When servicing, cover or seal openings to

minimize the exposure of the refrigerant system

to air to prevent accumulation of moisture and

other contaminants.

After outdoor and indoor unit placement has been

determined, route refrigerant tubing between the

equipment in accordance with sound installation practices.

• When connecting refrigerant linesets together, it is

recommended that dry nitrogen be ﬂowing through

thejointsduringbrazingtopreventinternaloxidation

and scaling.

• Refrigeranttubingshouldberoutedinamannerthat

minimizesthelengthoftubingandthenumberofbends

in the tubing. If precise forming of refrigerant lines is

required, a copper tubing bender is recommended.

Avoid sharp bends and contact of the refrigerant lines

with metal surfaces.

• Refrigeranttubingshouldbesupportedinamanner

that the tubing will not vibrate or abrade during system

operation.

• Tubingshouldbekeptcleanofforeigndebrisduring

installation.

• Everyeffortshouldbemadebytheinstallertoensure

that the ﬁeld installed refrigerant containing components

of the system have been installed in accordance with

these instructions and sound installation practices to

insure reliable system operation and longevity.

• The maximum recommended interconnecting

refrigerant line lengths is 75 ft. and the vertical elevation

difference between the indoor and outdoor sections

should not exceed 20 ft.

• A lterdryer is providedwith the unit and must be

installed in the liquid line of the system. If the installation

replaces a system with a ﬁlter dryer already present

in the liquid line, the ﬁlter dryer must be replaced with

the one supplied with the unit. The ﬁlter dryer must be

installed in strict accordance with the manufacturer’s

installation instructions.

• Optional equipment such as liquid line solenoid

valves, low ambient, etc., should be installed in

strict accordance with the manufacturer’s installation

instructions.

ELECTRICAL WIRING

WARNING:

To avoid risk of electrical shock, personal

injury, or death, disconnect all electrical power

to the unit before performing any maintenance

or service. The unit may have more than one

electrical supply.

Label all wires prior to disconnection when

servicing the unit. Wiring errors can cause

improper and dangerous operation.

• Allelectricalconnectionsmustbeincompliancewith

all applicable local codes and ordinances, and with

the current revision of the National Electric Code

(ANSI/NFPA 70).

• ForCanadianinstallationstheelectricalconnections

and grounding shall comply with the current Canadian

Electrical Code (CSA C22.1 and/or local codes).

Pre-Electrical Checklist

√ Verify that the voltage, frequency, and phase of the

supply source match the speciﬁcations on the unit

rating plate.

√ Verify that the service provided by the utility is sufﬁcient

to handle the additional load imposed by this equipment.

Refer to the unit wiring label for proper voltage wiring.

√ Verify factory wiring is in accordance with the unit

wiring diagram (Figure 10 page 16). Inspect for loose

connections.

Line Voltage

• A wiring diagram is located on the inside cover of the

electrical box of the outdoor unit. The installer should

become familiar with the wiring diagram before making

any electrical connections to the outdoor unit.

• Anelectricaldisconnectmustbelocatedwithinsight

of and readily accessible to the unit. This switch shall

becapable ofelectrically de-energizingthe outdoor

unit.

• Line voltage to the unit should be supplied from a

dedicated branch circuit containing the correct fuse

or circuit breaker for the unit. Incoming ﬁeld wiring

andminimumsizeofelectricalconductorsandcircuit

protection must be in compliance with information listed

on the outdoor unit data label. Any other wiring methods

must be acceptable to authority having jurisdiction.

• Theoutdoorunitrequiresbothpowerandcontrolcircuit

electrical connections. Refer to the wiring diagram /

schematic for identiﬁcation and location of outdoor unit

ﬁeld wiring interfaces (Figure 10 page 16). Make all

electrical connections in accordance with all applicable

codes and ordinances.

• Overcurrentprotectionmustbeprovidedatthebranch

circuitdistributionpanelandsizedasshownontheunit

rating label and according to applicable local codes.

See the unit rating plate for minimum circuit ampacity

and maximum overcurrent protection limits.
