Air and foreign matter in the refrigerant circuit can
cause abnormal rises in pressure, which can
damage the air conditioner, reduce its efficiency,
and cause injury. Use a vacuum pump and manifold
gauge to evacuate the refrigerant circuit, removing
any non-condensable gas and moisture from the
system. Evacuation should be performed upon initial
installation and when unit is relocated.
1. Connect the charge hose of the manifold gauge to
service port on the outdoor unit’s low-pressure
valve.
2. Connect another charge hose from the manifold
gauge to the vacuum pump.
