vibration.
5. When passing refrigerant tubes through the wall, seal
opening with RTV or other silicon-based caulk.
6. Avoid direct tubing contact with water pipes, duct work,
floor joists, wall studs, floors, walls, and any structure.
7. Do not suspend refrigerant tubing from joists and studs
with a rigid wire or strap which comes in direct contact
with tubing.
8. Ensure that tubing insulation is pliable and completely
surrounds suction line.
When outdoor unit is connected to factory-approved
indoor unit, outdoor unit contains system refrigerant
charge for operation with indoor unit of the same size
when connected by 15 ft. of field-supplied tubing. For
proper unit operation, check refrigerant charge using
charging information located on control box cover.

foundation slab should NOT be in contact with or be an
integral part of the building foundation.
