WARNING

To avoid possible explosion, use only returnable (not 

disposable) service cylinders when removing refrigerant 

from a system. 

• 

Ensure the cylinder is free of damage which could lead 

to a leak or explosion.

• 

Ensure the hydrostatic test date does not exceed 5 

years.

• 

Ensure the pressure rating meets or exceeds 400 psig.

When in doubt, do not use cylinder.

Refrigerant Lines

CAUTION

The compressor POE oil for R-410A units is extremely 

susceptible to moisture absorption and could cause 

compressor failure. Do not leave system open to atmosphere 

any longer than necessary for installation. 

Use only refrigerant grade (dehydrated and sealed) 

copper tubing to connect the condensing unit with the 

indoor evaporator. After cutting the tubing, install plugs to 

keep refrigerant tubing clean and dry prior to and during 

installation. Tubing should always be cut square keeping 

ends round and free from burrs. Clean the tubing to 

prevent contamination.

Do NOT let refrigerant lines come in direct contact with 

plumbing, ductwork, floor joists, wall studs, floors, and 

walls. When running refrigerant lines through a foundation 

or wall, openings should allow for sound and vibration 

absorbing material to be placed or installed between tubing 

and foundation. Any gap between foundation or wall and 

refrigerant lines should be filled with a pliable silicon-

based caulk, RTV or a vibration damping material. Avoid 

suspending refrigerant tubing from joists and studs with 

rigid wire or straps that would come in contact with the 

tubing. Use an insulated or suspension type hanger. Keep 

both lines separate and always insulate the suction line.

These sizes are recommended for line lengths of 79 feet 

or less to obtain optimum performance. For alternate line 

sizing options or runs of more than 79 feet, refer to TP-107 

R-410A Long Line Set Application Guidelines or contact 

your distributor for assistance.

Insulation is necessary to prevent condensation from 

forming and dropping from the suction line. Armflex (or 

satisfactory equivalent) with 3/8” min. wall thickness is 

recommended. In severe conditions (hot, high humidity 

areas) 1/2” insulation may be required. Insulation must be 

installed in a manner which protects tubing from damage 

and contamination.

Existing Line Sets

Where possible, drain as much residual compressor 

oil from existing systems, lines, and traps; pay close 

attention to low areas where oil may collect. Use of an 

approved flushing agent is recommended followed by a 

nitrogen purge to remove any remaining flushing agent 

from the lines or indoor coil. Replacement of indoor coil is 

recommended.
