Installation – Slope Coil Units Only
1. Recover system refrigerant.
a. Attach gage/manifold set to service valves.
b. Start unit in cooling mode.
c. Front seat (close) liquid line service valve.
d. Operate unit until vapor pressure reaches 5 psig (35kPa), or until
suction line LPS opens.
e. Turn off electrical supply to outdoor unit.
f. Front seat (close) vapor service valve.
g. Recover any remaining refrigerant.
NOTE: All condenser coils hold only a factory-supplied amount of
refrigerant. Excess refrigerant, such as in long-line applications, may
cause compressor internal pressure relief valve to open (indicated by
sudden rise in vapor pressure) before refrigerant is recovered. If this
occurs, turn off electrical supply to outdoor unit immediately, front seat
(close) vapor service valve, and recover any remaining refrigerant.
2. Turn off electrical supply to indoor unit.
3. Disconnect condensate drain line.
4. Disconnect liquid and vapor lines from indoor coil. Use a tubing
cutter to cut the lines.
5. Remove coil access and fitting panels.
6. Remove 1 screw securing coil to unit casing.
7. Remove coil/pan assembly from unit.
8. Place assembly on a flat surface. On units manufactured prior to
1996, remove two screws securing coil support columns to pan
(Fig. 30).
9. Rotate columns 90°, pull away from coil, and remove columns from
assembly.
10. Remove two screws securing coil to condensate pan (Fig. 30 and
Fig. 31).
11. Remove coil from condensate pan.
12. Attach new painted Top Seal to new coil using brass colored screws
included with packaging (Fig. 30 and Fig. 31).
13. 1Remove screw at bottom of coil extension and reuse to attached
Coil Baffle in same location. Long side of baffle toward pan
(Fig. 30 and Fig. 31).
14. Install new coil into condensate pan using two original screws and
two support columns.
15. Install new coil pan assembly into unit and secure with one screw
previously removed from unit casing (Fig. 30).
16. Reinstall coil access panel.
17. Reconnect liquid and vapor refrigerant lines and condensate drain
line. Install new filter drier(s).
NOTE: If a torch is used to unbraze the line set, protect the fitting panel
with a wet cloth or braze shield as necessary.
18. Evacuate line set and indoor coil to 500 microns, back seat (open)
liquid and vapor service valves.
19. Turn on electrical supplies to indoor and outdoor units.
20. Check system refrigerant charge and operation. See Split- System
Residential Air Conditioners and Heat Pump Service Manuals for
further information.
