After finishing connecting the refrigerant pipes, keep it warm with
the insulation material like figure right.
·
For outdoor unit side, surely insulate every piping including valves.
·
Cover piping joints with pipe cover.
·
Using piping tape, apply taping starting from the entry of
outdoor unit. Fix the end of piping tape with adhesive tape.
-
Fix the end of piping tape with adhesive tape.
-
When piping has to be arranged through above ceiling, closet or area
where temperature and humidity are high, wind additional commercially
sold insulation for prevention of condensation.

(1) Remove the service port cap of the stop valve on the gas pipe
side of the outdoor unit.
(2) Connect the manifold gauge and vacuum pump to the service port
of the stop valve on the gas pipe side of the outdoor unit.
(3) Run the vacuum pump. (Work for more than 15 minutes.)
(4) Check the vacuum with the gauge manifold valve, then close the
gauge manifold valve and stop the vacuum pump.
(5) Leave it as is for one or two minutes. Make sure the pointer of the
manifold gauge remains in the same position. Confirm that the
pressure gauge shows -14.7 psi(-0.101MPa or -760mHg).
(6)Remove the manifold gauge quickly from the service port of the
stop valve.
(7) After refrigerant pipes are connected and evacuated, fully open
all stop valves on both sides of gas pipe and liquid pipe.
(8) Open adjusted valve to add refrigerant
(

).
(9) Tighten the cap to the service port .
(10) Retighten the cap.
(11) Leak test foam with halogen leak detector to check the flare nut
and brazing Carolina Department leaks. Use foam that not
generate ammonia (NH3) in the reaction.
