GenerAl noteS:
Adequate refrigerant charge for the matching indoor coil and
line set is supplied with the air conditioner. If liquid line set
exceeds factory charge length, refrigerant should be added at
0.6 ounce (Liquid line diameter 3/8") of refrigerant per foot of
liquid line. Refer to pages 11-13 for calculation of refrigerant
charge based on line set length.

1. Connect the vacuum pump with 250 micron capability
to the service valves.
2. Evacuate the system to 500 microns or less using
suction and liquid service valves. Using both valves
is necessary.
3. Close pump valve and hold vacuum for 10 minutes.
Typically pressure will rise during this period.
• If the pressure rises to 500 microns or less and
remains steady the system is considered leak-free;
proceed to start-up.
• If pressure rises above 500 microns moisture and/
-
or noncondensibles may be present or the system
may have a small leak. Return to step 2: If the same
result is encountered check for leaks as previously
indicated and repair as necessary then repeat
evacuation.
