STEP 2 – REFRIGERANT PIPING – Install Indoor Expansion Valve
This outdoor unit is designed for use in systems that use either an fixed orifice (RFC) (included with outdoor unit), or ex-
pansion valve metering device (purchased separately) at the indoor coil. See the 4AC14 Product Specifications bulletin
(EHB) for approved expansion valve kit matchups.
NOTE – when a fixed orifice (RFC) is used with the 4AC14LS18 to 30 models, a liquid line solenoid valve kit (17A09) is
required.
The expansion valve unit can be installed internal or external to the indoor coil. In applications where an uncased coil is
being installed in a field-provided plenum, install the expansion valve in a manner that will provide access for field servicing
of the expansion valve. Refer to below illustration for reference during installation of expansion valve unit. After installation
of the indoor coil metering device, proceed to Step 5.

EQUALIZER LINE INSTALLATION
1 - Remove and discard either the flare seal cap or flare nut
with copper flare seal bonnet from the equalizer line port
on the vapor line as illustrated in the figure below.

3 - Install one of the provided Teflon
stubbed end of the check expansion valve and lightly
lubricate the connector threads and expose surface of

ring with refrigerant oil.
4 - Attach the stubbed end of the check expansion valve to
the liquid line orifice housing. Finger tighten and use an
appropriately sized wrench to turn an additional 1/2 turn
®
clockwise as illustrated in the figure above, or tighten to
20 ft-lb.
5 - Place the remaining Teflon
end of the check expansion valve. Lightly lubricate
connector threads and expose surface of the Teflon
ring with refrigerant oil.

6 - Attach the liquid line assembly to the check expansion
valve. Finger tighten and use an appropriately sized
wrench to turn an additional 1/2 turn clockwise as
illustrated in the figure above or tighten to 20 ft-lb.
SENSING BULB INSTALLATION
1 - Attach the vapor line sensing bulb in the proper
orientation as illustrated to the right using the clamp and
screws provided.
NOTE - Though it is preferred to have the sensing bulb
installed on a horizontal run of the vapor line, installation
on a vertical run of piping is acceptable if necessary.
NOTE - Confirm proper thermal contact between vapor
line and check/expansion bulb before insulating the
sensing bulb once installed.
2 - Connect the equalizer line from the check expansion
valve to the equalizer vapor port on the vapor line. Finger
tighten the flare nut plus 1/8 turn (7 ft-lbs) as illustrated
below.
