WARNING

UNIT LOCATION & INSTALLATION

NOTE: 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 sounds may disturb customer.

2. Ensure that vapor and liquid tube diameters are

appropriate to capacity of unit.

3. Run refigerant tubes as directly as possible by avoiding

unecessary turns and bends.

4. Leave some slack between structure and unit to absorb

vibration.

5. When passing refrigerant tubes through the wall, seal

opening with RTV or other silicon-based caulk.

6. Avoid direct tubing contact with water pipes, duct work,

floor joists, wall studs, floors, walls, and any structure.

7. Do not suspend refrigerant tubing from joists and studs

with a rigid wire or strap which comes in direct contact

with tubing.

8. Ensure that tubing insulation is pliable and completely

surrounds suction line.

When outdoor unit is connected to factory-approved

indoor unit, outdoor unit contains system refrigerant

charge for operation with indoor unit of the same size

when connected by 15 ft. of field-supplied tubing. For

proper unit operation, check refrigerant charge using

charging information located on control box cover.

IMPORTANT: Maximum liquid-line size is 3/8 in. O.D. for

all residental applications including long

lines.

OUTDOOR SECTION

Zoning ordinances may govern the minimum distance

the condensing unit can be installed from the property

line.

Install on a Solid, Level Mounting Pad

The outdoor section is to be installed on a solid

foundation. This foundation should extend a minimum of

2" (inches) beyond the sides of the outdoor section. To

reduce the possibility of noise transmission, the

foundation slab should NOT be in contact with or be an

integral part of the building foundation.
