Installation Recommendations
In some cases noise in the living area has been traced to gas
pulsations from improper installation of equipment.
1. Locate unit away from windows, patios, decks, etc. where
unit operation sound may disturb customer.
2. In noise sensitive applications (such as bedrooms), when a
lineset is mounted to ceiling joists or floor joists, the outdoor unit must be located at least 10 ft (3.05 m) away. If
this is not possible, create a line set configuration with
enough bends to provide 10 ft (3.05 m) of total line set
length outside the dwelling
3. Ensure that vapor and liquid tube diameters are appropriate
for unit capacity.
4. Run refrigerant tubes as directly as possible by avoiding unnecessary turns and bends.
5. Leave some slack between structure and unit to absorb vibration.
6. When passing refrigerant tubes through the wall, seal opening with RTV or other pliable silicon--based caulk (see Fig.
1).
7. Avoid direct tubing contact with water pipes, duct work,
floor joists, wall studs, floors, and walls.
8. Do not suspend refrigerant tubing from joists and studs with
a rigid wire or strap which comes in direct contact with
tubing (see Fig. 1).
9. Ensure that tubing insulation is pliable and completely surrounds vapor tube.
10. When necessary, use hanger straps which are 1 in. wide and
conform to shape of tubing insulation. (See Fig. 1.)
11. Isolate hanger straps from insulation by using metal sleeves
bent to conform to shape of insulation.
!
CAUTION
EQUIPMENT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment damage.
If proper lineset routing techniques are not followed, variable
speed systems can be susceptible to lineset transmitted noise
inside the dwelling and, in extreme cases, tubing breakage.
Adjust refrigerant charge by adding or removing the charge
to/from the unit depending on lineset length and indoor unit as
calculated and displayed on the UI. The user interface (UI)
calculates required charge adjustment and total system charge
required. For proper unit operation, check refrigerant charge using
charging information in the Check Charge section of this
instruction.

UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
Never use the system compressor as a vacuum pump.
Refrigerant tubes and indoor coil should be evacuated using the
recommended deep vacuum method of 500 microns. The alternate
triple evacuation method may be used. See Service Manual for
triple evacuation method. Always break a vacuum with dry
nitrogen prior to opening the refrigerant system for servicing.
CAUTION
Deep Vacuum Method
The deep vacuum method requires a vacuum pump capable of
pulling a vacuum of 500 microns and a vacuum gauge capable of
accurately measuring this vacuum depth. The deep vacuum method
is the most positive way of assuring a system is free of air and
liquid water. (See Fig. 7)
