SECTION I: GENERAL

The outdoor units are designed to be connected to a matching indoor
coil with sweat connect lines. Sweat connect units are factory charged
with refrigerant for a matching indoor coil plus 15 feet of field supplied
lines.

Matching indoor coils are available with a thermal expansion valve or
an orifice liquid feed sized for the most common usage. The orifice size
and/or refrigerant charge may need to be changed for some indoor-out-
door unit combinations, elevation differences or total line lengths. Refer
to Application Data covering “General Piping Recommendations and
Refrigerant Line Length” (Part Number 036-61920-001).
