A
Set the recovery machine for liquid recovery and start the recov-
ery machine. Open the gauge set valves to allow the recovery
machine to pull a vacuum on the existing system line set and in-
door unit coil.
B
Invert the cylinder of clean HCFC−22 and open its valve to allow
liquid refrigerant to flow into the system through the vapor line
valve. Allow the refrigerant to pass from the cylinder and through
the line set and the indoor unit coil before it enters the recovery
machine.
C
After all of the liquid refrigerant has been recovered, switch the
recovery machine to vapor recovery so that all of the HCFC−22
vapor is recovered. Allow the recovery machine to pull down to 0
the system.
D
Close the valve on the inverted HCFC−22 drum and the gauge
set valves. Pump the remaining refrigerant out of the recovery
machine and turn the machine off.
The line set and indoor unit coil must be flushed with at least the
same amount of clean refrigerant that previously charged the sys-
tem. Check the charge in the flushing cylinder before proceeding.
