including solenoid valves.
!
UNIT DAMAGE HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in equipment
damage or improper operation.
Do not leave system open to atmosphere any longer than
minimum required for installation. POE oil in compressor is
extremely susceptible to moisture absorption. Always keep
ends of tubing sealed during installation.
If ANY refrigerant tubing is buried, provide a 6 in. (152.4
mm) vertical rise at service valve. Refrigerant tubing
lengths up to 36 in. (914.4 mm) may be buried without
further special consideration. Do not bury lines more than
36 in. (914.4 mm).
Outdoor units may be connected to indoor section using
accessory tubing package or field−supplied refrigerant grade
tubing of correct size and condition. For tubing requirements
beyond 80 ft/24.38 m, substantial capacity and performance
losses can occur. Following the recommendations in the
Long Line Applications Guideline for Split−System Air
Conditioners and Heat Pumps will reduce these losses. Refer
to Table 1 for accessory requirements. Refer to Table 2 for
field tubing diameters.
There are no buried−line applications greater than 36 in.
(914.4 mm).
If refrigerant tubes or indoor coil are exposed to atmosphere,
they must be evacuated to 500 microns to eliminate
contamination and moisture in the system.
Outdoor Unit Connected to Factory Approved
Indoor Unit
Outdoor unit contains correct system refrigerant charge for
operation with factory approved AHRI rated indoor unit when
connected by 15 ft. (4.57 m) of field− supplied or

Refrigerant tubes and indoor coil should be evacuated using
the recommended deep vacuum method of 500 microns. An
alternate triple evacuation method may be used. See triple
evacuation method in Service Manual.
IMPORTANT: Always break a vacuum with dry nitrogen.
Deep Vacuum Method
The deep vacuum method requires a vacuum pump capable
of pulling a vacuum of 500 microns and a vacuum gage
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. 4)
