Check that the gas and liquid stop valves are fully closed.

Special care should be taken to ensure that the flame from the blow torch does not fall on the body of the stop valve, on
the compressor and cover or on the insulation bushings; insert a metal plate in front of the oil return pipe:

Connect the indoor units to the outdoor units using copper pipes specifically for use with refrigerant. When laying the pipes
make sure that they do not directly rest on or touch walls or other parts of the building (when the refrigerant is flowing

Specific torques for the flared connections:
.
While welding, apply a flow of nitrogen gas inside the pipe.
Fully insulate the refrigerant pipes.
