STEP 1 - Check the outdoor temperatures.
Subcooling (in cooling mode) is the only recommended*
method of charging above 55º F ambient outdoor tem-

*Weigh-In Method can be used for initial installation,
or system replacement when power is not available or
when the desired temperatures for the standard charging
method are outside normal bounds. See Section 14.3.
For best results the indoor temperature should be kept
between 70º F to 80º F.

accurately charge the system in the cooling mode when
outdoor ambient temperature is above 55º F.
