1.1 First Time Installation Check
Air and moisture trapped in the refrigerant system affects
the performance of the air conditioner by:
• Increasing pressure in the system.
• Increasing the operating current.
• Decreasing the cooling or heating efficiency.
• Congesting the capillary tubing due to ice build-up in
the refrigerant circuit.
• Corroding the refrigerant system.
Air purging with vacuum pump
Maintenance and
Disassembly
To prevent air and moisture from affecting the air
conditioner’s performance, the indoor unit, as well as the
pipes between the indoor and outdoor unit, must be be
leak tested and evacuated.
Leak test (soap water method)
Use a soft brush to apply soapy water or a neutral liquid
detergent onto the indoor unit connections and outdoor
unit connections. If there is gas leakage, bubbles will form
on the connection.
Page 18
Procedure:
1. Tighten the flare nuts of the indoor and outdoor
units, and confirm that both the 2- and 3-way valves
are closed.
2. Connect the charge hose with the push pin of Handle
Lo to the gas service port of the 3-way valve.
3. Connect the charge hose of Handle Hi connection to
the vacuum pump.
4. Fully open the Handle Lo manifold valve.
5. Using the vacuum pump, evacuate the system for
30 minutes.
a. Check whether the compound meter indicates
-0.1 MPa (14.5 Psi).
• If the meter does not indicate -0.1 MPa
(14.5 Psi) after 30 minutes, continue
evacuating for an additional 20 minutes.
• If the pressure does not achieve -0.1 MPa
(14.5 Psi) after 50 minutes, check for leakage.
• If the pressure successfully reaches -0.1 MPa
(14.5 Psi), fully close the Handle Lo valve and
cease vacuum pump operations.
b. Wait for 5 minutes then check whether the gauge
needle moves after turning off the vacuum pump.
6. Loosen the flare nut of the 3-way valve for 6 or
7 seconds and then tighten the flare nut again.
a. Confirm the pressure display in the pressure
indicator is slightly higher than the atmospheric
pressure.
b. Remove the charge hose from the 3-way valve.
7. Fully open the 2- and 3-way valves and tighten the
cap of the 3-way valve.

Procedure:
1. Tighten the flare nuts of the indoor and outdoor
units, and confirm that both the 2- and 3-way valves
are closed.
2. Connect the charge hose with the push pin of Handle
Lo to the gas service port of the 3-way valve.
3. Connect the charge hose of Handle Hi connection to
the vacuum pump.
4. Fully open the Handle Lo manifold valve.
5. Using the vacuum pump, evacuate the system for
30 minutes.
a. Check whether the compound meter indicates
-0.1 MPa (14.5 Psi).
• If the meter does not indicate -0.1 MPa (14.5 Psi)
after 30 minutes, continue evacuating for an
additional 20 minutes.
• If the pressure does not achieve -0.1 MPa
(14.5 Psi) after 50 minutes, check for leakage.
• If the pressure successfully reaches -0.1 MPa
(14.5 Psi), fully close the Handle Lo valve and
cease vacuum pump operations.
b. Wait for 5 minutes then check whether the gauge
needle moves after turning off the vacuum pump.
6. Loosen the flare nut of the 3-way valve for 6 or
7 seconds and then tighten the flare nut again.
c. Confirm the pressure display in the pressure
indicator is slightly higher than the atmospheric
pressure.
d. Remove the charge hose from the 3-way valve.
7. Fully open the 2- and 3-way valves and tighten the
cap of the 3-way valve.
