8. Braze the individual connections with dry nitrogen flowing
through the joints.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
To prevent internal oxidation and scaling from occuring,
braze all connections with dry nitrogen flowing through
the joints.
9.Installthegrommetinthedoorcutout.Verifythegrommet
is evenly aligned around the tube and securely positioned
in the door cutout.
Condensate Drain
CAUTION:
The coil must be level to ensure proper condensate
drainage. Improper condensate disposal may result
in structural damage, premature equipment failure,
or possible personal injury.
• Methods for disposing of condensate vary according
tolocalcodes.Referto local codesorauthorityhaving
jurisidiction for restrictions and proper condensate disposal
requirements.

result from condensate overflow, a separate 3/4 inch drain
must be provided from the secondary drain connection and

IMPORTANT NOTE:
Failure to install a trap may result in condensation

precautions.
• Routethelinestoasuitabledrain,avoidingsharpbends
and pinching of the lines. The drain should maintain a
minimum horizontal slope in the direction of discharge of
no less than 1” vertical for every 10 ft of horizontal run.
• During system checkout, inspect the drain line and
connections to verify proper condensate drainage.
Air Filter
Air filters are not supplied as an integral part of this coil;
however,anairlterkitisavailable.RefertotheReplacement
Parts List for available part numbers.

frequently. When the filter becomes clogged with dust or
lint, it should be replaced (disposable type) or cleaned
(washable type). It is recommended that filters be inspected
and replaced at least twice during the year. Generally it is
best to replace or clean the filters at the start of each heating
and cooling season.
COMPLETING THE INSTALLATION
1. Check the system for leaks, including the lineset and the
brazed joints.
2.Evacuatethesystemofmoistureandnon-condensables
to prevent low efficiency operation or damage to the unit.
Thesuggestedrangeofevacuationis350-500microns.
3. Charge the system with refrigerant. Please Refer to the
outdoor unit installation manual for additional charging
instructions.
4. Install the coil access door (if removed).
5.Properlydisposeofallremovedparts.
6. Apply power to the unit.
MAINTENANCE & SERVICE
WARNING:
ELECTRICAL SHOCK, FIRE OR
EXPLOSION HAZARD
Failure to follow safety warnings exactly could
result in serious injury or property damage.
Improper servicing could result in dangerous
