12 System Charge Adjustment
Units come precharged from the factory, 3 Ton units with 4-6
lb-oz and 5 Ton units with 6-10 lb-oz. Follow Section 12 for
charge adjustments i.e if components have been replaced, or if
there is a suspected leak.
12.1 Charging: Weigh-In Method
Weigh-in method is recommended anytime a system charge is being
replaced. Weigh-in method can also be used when power is not
available to the equipment site or operating conditions (indoor/outdoor
temperatures) are not in range to verify with the subcooling charging
method.

(Above 55°F Outdoor Temp.)
1. Check the outdoor ambient temperatures.
Subcooling (in cooling mode) is the only recommended method of
charging above 55°F outdoor ambient temperatures. For outdoor
ambient temperatures below 55°F, use weigh-in charge method.
It is important to return in the spring or summer to accurately
charge the system in the cooling mode when outdoor ambient
temperature is above 55°F.
