Piping Connections to Outdoor Unit
1. Remove service valve cover (if provided) to access
the service valves and refrigerant ports. The outdoor
unit refrigerant port sizes vary with unit size. See
System Requirement Section for refrigerant port sizes.
2. Carefully bend and adjust length of refrigerant
pipes to meet outdoor unit service valves
connections with proper tools to avoid kinks.
NOTE:
Use proper techniques to cut and re-flare refrigerant pipes, if required.
An R410A Flaring Tool is required for re-flaring refrigerant pipes.
