CAUTION
Use only refrigerant grade (dehydrated and sealed) copper
tubing to connect the heat pump unit with the indoor unit.
After cutting the tubing, install plugs to keep refrigerant
tubing clean and dry prior to and during installation. Tubing
should always be cut square keeping ends round and free
from burrs. Clean the tubing to prevent contamination.
The liquid line must be insulated if more than 50 ft. of liquid
line will pass through an area that may reach temperatures
of 30 °F or higher than ambient in cooling mode and/or if
the temperature inside the conditioned space may reach a
temperature lower than ambient in heating mode. Never
attach a liquid line to any uninsulated potion of the suction
line.
Do NOT let refrigerant lines come in direct contact with
plumbing, ductwork, floor joists, wall studs, floors, and
walls. When running refrigerant lines through a foundation
or wall, openings should allow for sound and vibration
absorbing material to be placed or installed between tubing
and foundation. Any gap between foundation or wall and
refrigerant lines should be filled with a pliable silicon-
based caulk, RTV or a vibration damping material. Avoid
suspending refrigerant tubing from joists and studs with
rigid wire or straps that would come in contact with the
tubing. Use an insulated or suspension type hanger. Keep
both lines separate and always insulate the suction line.
Insulation is necessary to prevent condensation from
forming and dropping from the suction line. Armflex or
satisfactory equivalent with 3/8” min. wall thickness is
recommended. In severe conditions (hot, high humidity
areas) 1/2” insulation may be required. Insulation must
be installed in a manner which protects tubing and
connections from damage and contamination.
Where possible, drain as much residual compressor oil
from existing systems, lines, and traps; pay close attention
to low areas where oil may collect. NOTE: If changing
refrigerant, the indoor coil and metering device must be
replaced. Only AVPEC air handlers or TXV-V** expansion
valves are compatible and have been manufacturer
approved for use with these models. See unit specifications
or AHRI for an approved system match.

Burying Refrigerant Lines
If burying refrigerant lines can not be avoided, use the
following checklist:
1. Insulate liquid and suction lines separately.
2. Enclose all underground portions of the refrigerant
lines in waterproof material (conduit or pipe) sealing
the ends where tubing enters/exits the enclosure.
3. If the lines must pass under or through a concrete
slab, ensure lines are adequately protected and
sealed.
