6. Quench the joint and tubing with water using a wet
rag. Leave rag on fitting body and re-wet with water
to help cool area.
It is important that no tubing be cut or seals broken
until you are ready to actually make connections to the
evaporator and to the condenser section. DO NOT remove
rubber plugs or copper caps from the tube ends until ready
to make connections at evaporator and condenser. Under
no circumstances leave the lines open to the atmosphere
for any period of time, if so unit requires additional
evacuation to remove moisture.
Leak Check
Refrigeration lines and indoor coil must be checked for
leaks after brazing and before evacuation.
The
recommended procedure is to apply a trace amount of
vapor refrigerant (approximately two ounces or 3 psig) into
the line set and indoor coil, then pressurize with 150 psig
of dry nitrogen. Use a refrigerant leak detector to check all
joints. The system may also be checked for leaks using a
Be extra careful with sharp bends. Tubing can "kink"
very easily, and if this occurs, the entire tube length will
have to be replaced. Extra care at this time will eliminate
future service problems.
halide torch or pressure and soapy solution.
After
completion of leak check, relieve all pressure from system
before evacuation.
It is recommended that vertical suction risers not be
up-sized. Proper oil return to the compressor should be
maintained with suction gas velocity.
Evacuating And Charging Instructions
NOTE: Intentional release of CFC or HCFC refrigerant
to the atmosphere violates Federal Law. It may
also violate State and Local Codes. Check all
Federal, State and Local Codes before
proceeding.
Installation of Line Sets
DO NOT fasten liquid or suction lines in direct contact
with the floor or ceiling joist.
Use an insulated or
suspension type of hanger. Keep both lines separate, and
always insulate the suction line. Long liquid line runs (30
feet or more) in an attic will require insulation. Route
refrigeration line sets to minimize length.
These outdoor units are pre-charged at the factory with
adequate refrigerant to handle 15 feet of refrigerant tubing.
DO NOT let refrigerant lines come in direct contact with
foundation. When running refrigerant lines through the
foundation or wall, openings should allow for a sound and
vibration absorbing material to be placed or installed
NOTE: DO NOT use any portion of the charge for purging
or leak testing. It is mandatory that a thorough
evacuation of the refrigeration lines and indoor coil
be performed.
between tubing and foundation.
Any gap between
foundation or wall and refrigerant lines should be filled with
a vibration damping material.
The liquid line and suction line service valves have been
closed after final testing at the factory. DO NOT disturb
these valves until the lines have been leak checked and
evacuated or the charge in the unit may be lost.
If ANY refrigerant tubing is buried, provide a 6 inch
vertical rise at service valve. Refrigerant tubing
lengths up to 36 inches may be buried without further
special consideration. For lengths above 36 inches,
consult your local distributor.
1. Connect the vacuum pump to the center hose of the
manifold gauge set, the low-pressure manifold
gauge to the vapor service valve and the high
pressure manifold gauge to the liquid service valve.
NOTE: Unnecessary switching of hoses can be avoided
and complete evacuation of all lines can be
achieved by also connecting a branch hose from
the manifold gauge center port to a cylinder of the
proper refrigerant. Provide a separate shut-off
valve to vacuum pump to avoid contaminating
vacuum pump oil with refrigerant.
Before making braze connections, be sure all joints are
clean. Before heat is applied for brazing, dry nitrogen
should be flowing through the tubing to prevent oxidation
and scale formation on the inside of the tubing.
506162-02

2. The valves should be kept in the "front seated"
(closed) position. This will allow evacuation of the
refrigeration lines and the indoor coil, without
disturbing the factory charge in the outdoor unit.
Provide line voltage power supply to unit from a properly
sized disconnect switch. Route power and ground wires
from disconnect switch to unit. Line voltage connections
are made at the line side of the contactor in the control box
of the outdoor unit. Follow the appropriate wiring diagram
attached to inside of the access panel.
3. Follow
the
vacuum
pump
manufacturer's
instructions. Allow the pump to operate until the
system has been evacuated down to 300 microns.
Allow the pump to continue running for an additional
15 minutes. Turn OFF the pump and leave the
connections secured to the two (2) service valves.
After 5 minutes, if the system fails to hold 500
microns or less, check all connections for tight fit and
repeat the evacuation procedure.
Proper circuit protection recommendations are indicated
on Unit Rating Plate. Time delay fuses are required to
prevent blowing due to starting current (the current in rush
when equipment starts is referred to as the Locked Rotor
Amps or (LRA). A fuse of this kind properly sized will give
maximum equipment protection.
4. Isolate the vacuum pump from the system by closing
the shutoff valves on the gauge-set. Disconnect the
vacuum pump.
Use copper wire only between disconnect switch and
unit.
Remove access panel to gain access to unit wiring.
Extend wires from disconnect through power wiring hole
provided and into unit control box. Flexible conduit is
required for the swing out control box feature.
Opening Service Valves
After evacuation of the connecting lines, remove the
service valve cap and fully insert the hex wrench into the
stem. A back-up wrench is required on the valve body to
open the valve stem. Back-out counterclockwise until the
valve stem just touches the coined edge.
The unit cabinet must have an uninterrupted or
unbroken ground to minimize personal injury if an
electrical fault should occur. The ground may consist
of electrical wire or metal conduit when installed in
accordance with existing electrical codes. Failure to
follow this warning can result in an electric shock,
fire, or death.
Wrench sizes:
3/8 service valve: 3/16" Hex wrench
3/4 service valve: 5/16" Hex wrench
7/8 service valve: 5/16" Hex wrench
Replace service valve cap and torque to 8-11 ft-lb on 3/8"
valves; 12-15 ft-lb on 3/4" valves; 15-20 ft-lb on 7/8" valves.
Use backup wrench on valve body when torqueing valve
cap.
Connect ground wire to ground connection in control box
for safety. Connect power wiring to contactor.
High voltage power connections to 3-phase models is
made to "Pig Tail" leads with field supplied splice
connectors.
Install Electrical Accessories
Refer to the instructions packaged with the accessories.
Control Wiring
The control voltage is 24 Vac. NEC Class I insulated 18
AW G is required for control wiring. For lengths longer than
150 feet, contact your local distributor for technical service.
Electrical Connections
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD!
Turn OFF electricpower beforeconnecting unit,
performing any maintenance or removing
panels or doors. More than one disconnect
may be required to turn off all power.
Ensure the room thermostat is properly installed per
instructions shipped with room thermostat. Generally the
thermostat should not be exposed to sunlight, drafts or
vibration and should not be mounted on exterior walls.
Low voltage control wire connections should be made to
the screw connection terminal board mounted on the
defrost control as shown. All low voltage control wiring
must be separated from incoming power leads.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN BODILY
INJURY OR DEATH.
Be sure to check all local codes to determine that the unit
is installed accordance with local requirements. Consult
the National Electric Code for wire size requirements. Use
60/ C wire or higher. Always provide ground connections
to the outdoor unit. Power supply must agree with rating
on unit nameplate.

Adjusting Charge
Factory charge is shown on the rating label located on
the access panel.
All split system heat pumps are factory charged for
15 feet of connecting line set and matched indoor fan
coil. Nameplate refrigerant charge should initially be
adjusted for line set lengths other than 15 feet. For line
sets shorter than 15 feet in length, remove charge. For line
sets longer than 15 feet, add charge. Oil charge is
sufficient for all line lengths.
Refrigeration Charge Adjustment
Liquid Line Diameter Oz. Per Linear Foot *
3/8" .6
* Factory charge for series is for 15' (ft.) line sets and matched fan
coil.
Before final adjustment is made to the refrigerant charge,
it is imperative that proper indoor airflow be established.
Airflow will be higher across a dry coil versus a wet coil.
Blower charts are calculated with a dry or wet coil basis.
Recommended airflow is 350-450 CFM per ton (12,000
Btuh) through a wet coil. Refer to indoor unit instructions
for methods of determining air flow and blower
performance.
Heat Pump Application with Electric Heat
Emergency Heat (heating heat pump)
If selector switch on thermostat is set to the emergency
heat position, the heat pump will be locked out of the
heating circuit, and all heating will be electric heat ( if
applicable). A jumper should be placed between W and E
on the thermostat so that the electric heat control will
transfer to the first stage heat on the thermostat. This will
allow the indoor blower to cycle on and off with the electric
heat when the fan switch is in the AUTO position.
Cooling Cycle Charge Adjustment
The optimum method for checking the charge is by
weight. However the following methods may be used
to confirm the proper charge:
Units with Indoor Pistons
Units installed with indoor pistons require charging with
the superheat method.
* Add Jumper on Subbase (Optional)
The following procedure is valid when indoor airflow is
within ± 20% of its rated CFM.

Emergency Heat Function (Room Thermostat)
NOTE: If a TXV is installed on indoor unit, a hard start kit
is required on all models with reciprocating compressors.
Refer to the specification sheet for details. Hard start kits
are also recommended for areas with utility power lower
than 208 Vac.
An emergency heat function is designed into some room
thermostats. This feature is applicable when isolation of
outdoor unit is required or when auxiliary electric heat is
staged by outdoor thermostats. When the room thermostat
is placed in the emergency heat position, the outdoor unit
control circuit is isolated from power and field-provided

Defrost Thermostat
Heating Check Chart Procedure
The defrost thermostat is located on the outdoor coil of
most models and on the liquid line between the
check/expansion valve and the distributor on R-4110A TXV
equipped models. When defrost thermostat senses 29/F
(42/ on R-410A TXV’s) or cooler, the thermostat contacts
close and send a signal to the defrost control board to start
the defrost timing. It also terminates defrost when the
liquid line warms up to 60/F.
To check system operation during heating cycle, refer to
the Heating Check Chart located on back of control box
cover. This chart indicates whether a correct relationship
exists between system operating pressure and air
temperature entering indoor and outdoor units. If pressure
and temperature do not match on chart, system refrigerant
charge may not be correct. Do not use chart to adjust
refrigerant charge.
Defrost Control
Charge must be rechecked again during the cooling
season.
The defrost control board includes the combined
functions of a time/temperature defrost control, defrost
relay, diagnostic LEDs and terminal strip for field wiring
connections.
Cold Weather Application
A cold weather accessory kit may be required for heat
pumps operating at ambient conditions below 25/ F.
Supplemental heat should be provided for these conditions
due to the expected performance degeneration.
The control provides automatic switching from normal
heating operation to defrost mode and back. During
compressor cycle, the control accumulates compressor
run times at 30-, 60-, or 90-minute field-adjustable

intervals. If the defrost thermostat is closed when the
selected compressor run time interval ends (call for
defrost), the defrost relay is energized and defrost begins.
The factory setting is 60 minutes. However, if frost
defrost mode when the compressor delay jumper is
removed.
NOTE: The 30 second "off" cycle is not functional when
jumpering the TEST pins.
Time Delay
The timed-off delay is 5 minutes long. The delay help to
protect the compressor from short-cycling in case the
power to the unit is interrupted or a pressure switch opens.
The delay is bypassed by placing the timer select jumper
across the TEST pins for 0.5 seconds.
Pressure Switch Circuit
The defrost control incorporates 2 pressure switch
circuits. The optional high pressure switch connects to the
boards HI PS terminals. The low pressure switch is factory
installed.
During a single demand cycle, the defrost control will lock
out the unit after the fifth time that the circuit is interrupted
by any pressure switch wired to the control board. In
addition, the diagnostic LEDs will indicate a locked-out
pressure switch after the fifth occurrence of an open
pressure switch. The unit will remain locked out until
power to the board is interrupted, then re-established or
until the jumper is applied to the TEST pins for 0.5
seconds.

During the 90 second start-up period,
and for the first 90 seconds each time the reversing
valve switches heat/cool modes. If the TEST pins
are jumpered and the 5 minute delay is being by-
passed, the LO PS terminal signal is not ignored
during the 90 second start-up period.
A TEST option is provided for troubleshooting. The
TEST mode may be started any time the unit is in the
heating mode and the defrost thermostat is closed or
jumpered. If the jumper is in the TEST position at power-
up, the control will ignore the test pins. When the jumper
is placed across the TEST pins for 2 seconds, the control
will enter the defrost mode. If the jumper is removed
before an additional 5 second period has elapsed ( 7
seconds total), the unit will remain in defrost mode until the
defrost thermostat opens or 14 minutes have passed. If
the jumper is not removed until after the additional 5
second period has elapsed, the defrost will terminate and
the test option will not function again until the jumper is
removed and re-applied.

Homeowner's Information
information below is typical for most thermostats. Ask your
dealer for specific information regarding the model of
thermostat installed.
ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD!
Turn OFF electric power to unit before performing
any maintenance or removing panels or doors.
Temperature Setting Levers
Most heat pump thermostats have 2 temperature
selector levers: one for heating and one for cooling. Set
the levers or dials to the desired temperature set points for
both heating and cooling. Avoid frequent temperature
adjustment; turning the unit off and back on before
pressures equalize puts stress on the unit compressor.
FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN BODILY
INJURY OR DEATH.
Heat Pump Operation
Your new heat pump has several characteristics that you
should be aware of:
On heat pump systems, increasing your thermostat
setting by more than 2 degrees may cause supplemental
heaters to turn on, reducing potential energy savings.
!
Heat pumps satisfy heating demand by delivering
large amounts of warm air into the living space. This
is quite different from gas-or oil-fired furnaces or an
electric furnace which deliver lower volumes of
considerably hotter air to heat the space.
Fan Switch
!
Do Not be alarmed if you notice frost on the outdoor
coil in the winter months. Frost develops on the
outdoor coil during the heating cycle when
temperatures are below 45/F. An electronic control
activates a defrost cycle lasting 5 to 15 minutes at
preset intervals to clear the outdoor coil of the frost.
During the defrost cycle, you may notice steam rising
from the outdoor unit. This is a normal occurrence.
The thermostat may engage auxiliary heat during the
defrost cycle to satisfy a heating demand; however.,
the unit will run to normal operation at the conclusion
of the defrost cycle.
In AUTO or INT (intermittent ) mode, the blower operates
only when the thermostat calls for heating or cooling. This
mode is generally preferred when humidity control is a
priority. The ON or CONT mode provides continuous
indoor blower operation, regardless of whether the
compressor or auxiliary heat are operating. This mode is
required when constant air circulation or filtering is desired.
!
System Switch
Set the system switch for heating, cooling or auto
operation. The auto mode allows the heat pump to
automatically switch from heating mode to cooling mode to
maintain predetermined comfort settings. Many heat pump
thermostats are also equipped with an emergency heat
mode which locks out heat pump operation and provides
temporary heat supplied by the auxiliary heat.
In case of extended power outage...
If the outdoor temperature is below 50/F and power to
your outdoor unit has been interrupted for 6 hours or
longer, observe the following when restoring power to your
heat pump system.
!
!
!
Set the room thermostat selector to the "Emergency
Heat" setting to obtain temporary heat for a minimum
of 6 hours. This will allow system refrigerant
pressures and temperatures enough time to return
to a stabilized condition.
Indicating Light
Most heat pump thermostats have an amber light which
indicates when the heat pump is operating in the
emergency heat mode.
In Emergency Heat mode, all heating demand is
satisfied by auxiliary heat; heat pump operation is
locked out. After a 6 hour "warm-up" period, the
thermostat can then be switched to the "Heat" setting
and normal heat pump operation my resume.
Heat pumps (in the cooling mode) remove humidity
from your home. Depending on the amount of
moisture in the air inside your home, water will trickle
from the condensate drain of the cooling coil.
Temperature Indicator
The temperature indicator displays the actual room
temperature.
Fan Control
For fan control your thermostat may have a Fan
Selection Switch that allows you to run the fan continuously
or cycle it automatically with the heating or cooling system.
Switch the lever to ON for continuous operation and to
AUTO for automatic cycling.

Important System Information
!
SHARP OBJECT HAZARD!
Your system should never be operated without a
clean air filter properly installed.
Condenser coils have sharp edges. Wear adequate
body protection on body extremities (e.g. gloves).
FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD
RESULT IN BODILY INJURY.
!
Return air and supply air registers should be free
from restrictions or obstructions to allow full flow of
air.
Regular Maintenance Requirements
Use a soft bristle brush with light pressure only. DO NOT
damage or bend condenser coil fins. Damaged or bent fins
may affect unit operation.
Your system should be regularly inspected by a qualified
service technician. These regular visits may include
(among other things) checks for:

Motor operation
Ductwork air leaks
Painted Surfaces
For maximum protection of the unit's finish, a good grade
of automobile wax should be applied every year. In
geographical areas where water has a high concentration
of minerals (calcium, iron, sulfur, etc.). It is recommended
that lawn sprinklers not be allowed to spray the unit. In
such applications, the sprinklers should be directed away
from the unit. Failure to follow this precaution may result
in premature deterioration of the unit finish and metal
components.
Coil & drainpan cleanliness (indoor & outdoor)
Electrical component operation & wiring check
Proper refrigerant level & refrigerant leaks
Proper airflow
Drainage of condensate
Air filter(s) performance
Blower wheel alignment, balance & cleaning
Primary & secondary drain line cleanliness
Proper defrost operation (heat pumps)
In sea coast areas, special maintenance is required due
to the corrosive atmosphere provided by the high salt
concentration in ocean mists and the air. Periodic washing
of all exposed surfaces and coil will add additional life to
your unit. Please consult your installing dealer for proper
procedures in your geographic area.
There is some routine maintenance procedures you can
do to help keep your system operating at peak
performance between visits.
Air Filter
Inspect air filters at least monthly and replace or clean as
required. Disposable filters should be replaced. Washable
filters may be cleaned by soaking in mild detergent and
rinsing with cold water. Replace filters with the arrows
pointing in the direction of airflow. Dirty filters are the most
common cause of poor heating / cooling performance and
compressor failures.
IF YOUR SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK,
BEFORE REQUESTING A SERVICE CALL:
1. Ensure thermostat is set below (cooling) or above
(heating) room temperature and that the system lever
is in the "COOL", "HEAT" or "AUTO" position.
Indoor Coil
2. Inspect your return air filter: If it is dirty your air
conditioner may not function properly.
If the system has been operated with a clean filter in
place, it should require minimal cleaning. Use a vacuum
cleaner and soft brush attachment to remove any
accumulation of dust from the top and underside of the
finned coil surface. However, perform this maintenance
only when the coil is completely dry.
3. Check indoor and outdoor disconnect switches.
Confirm circuit breakers are ON or that fuses have not
blown. Reset breakers/replace fuses as necessary.
4. Inspect the outdoor unit for clogged condenser coils,
(grass cuttings, leaves, dirt, dust or lint). Ensure that
branches, twigs or other debris are not obstructing the
condenser fan.
If the coil cannot be cleaned by this method, call your
dealer for service. It may need a detergent solution and
rinsing with water for cleaning, which may require coil
removal. You should not attempt this yourself.
IF YOUR SYSTEM STILL DOES NOT OPERATE,
CONTACT YOU SERVICING DEALER.
Condensate Drain
During cooling season check at least monthly for free
flow of drainage and clean if necessary.
Be sure to describe the problem, and have the model
and serial numbers of the equipment available.
If warranted replacements parts are required, the
warranty must be processed through a qualified distribution
location.
Condenser Coils
Grass cuttings, leaves, dirt, dust, lint from clothes dryers,
and fall off from trees can be drawn into coils by movement
of the air. Clogged condenser coils will lower the efficiency
of your unit and could cause damage to the condenser.
