19.1. Adding Refrigerant - Single-Zone Systems
The outdoor unit is factory-charged with refrigerant. Calculate the additional refrigerant required according to the diameter
and the length of the liquid pipe between the outdoor unit and indoor unit connections.
Be sure to add the proper amount of additional refrigerant. Failure to do so may result in reduced performance.
NOTE:
Interconnecting pipe work between outdoor and indoor units must be 10 ft. or longer.
NOTE:
Do not remove refrigerant for line lengths less than 25 ft. R-410A is a blended refrigerant. If you must remove
charge, it is necessary to remove the entire charge and weigh in the new charge.

19.2. Adding Refrigerant - Multi-Zone Systems
The outdoor unit is factory-charged with refrigerant. Calculate the additional refrigerant required according to the length of
the liquid pipe (one way) between the outdoor unit and indoor unit connections.
Be sure to add the proper amount of additional refrigerant. Failure to do so may result in reduced performance.
NOTE:
Interconnecting pipe work between outdoor and indoor units must be 10 ft. or longer.
NOTE:
Do not remove refrigerant for line lengths less than 25 ft. R-410A is a blended refrigerant. If you must remove
charge, it is necessary to remove the entire charge and weigh in the new charge.
