8. Check system for sufficient refrigerate by using the
procedures listed under Testing and Charging
System.
TESTING AND CHARGING SYSTEM
This system uses HFC−410A refrigerant which operates at
much higher pressures than HCFC−22. The pre−installed
liquid line filter drier is approved for use with HFC−410A
only. Do not replace it with components designed for use
with HCFC−22. This unit is NOT approved for use with coils
which use capillary tubes as a refrigerant metering device.
SETTING UP TO CHECK CHARGE
1. Close manifold gauge set valves. Connect the center
manifold hose to an upright cylinder of HFC−410A.
2. Connect the manifold gauge set to the unit’s service
ports as illustrated in Figure 3.

COOLING MODE INDOOR AIRFLOW CHECK
Check airflow using the Delta−T (
DT) process using the
illustration in Figure 30.
HEATING MODE INDOOR AIRFLOW CHECK
Blower airflow (CFM) may be calculated by energizing
electric heat and measuring:
S Temperature rise between the return air and supply air
temperatures at the indoor coil blower unit,
S Measuring voltage supplied to the unit,
S Measuring amperage being drawn by the heat unit(s).
Then, apply the measurements taken in following formula
to determine CFM:
CFM =
Amps x Volts x 3.41
1.08 x Temperature rise (F)
CALCULATING CHARGE
If the system is void of refrigerant, first, locate and repair
any leaks and then weigh in the refrigerant charge into the
unit. To calculate the total refrigerant charge:

1. Determine the desired DTMeasure entering air temperature
using dry bulb (A) and wet bulb (B). DT is the intersecting value of A
and B in the Table (see triangle).
2. Find temperature drop across coilMeasure the coil’s dry bulb
entering and leaving air temperatures (A and C). Temperature Drop
Formula: (T
Drop
) = A minus C.
3. Determine if fan needs adjustmentIf the difference between the
measured T
Drop
and the desired DT (T
Drop
–DT) is within +3º, no ad-
justment is needed. See examples: Assume DT = 15 and A temp. =
72º, these C temperatures would necessitate stated actions:
Cº T
Drop
– DT = ºF ACTION
53º 19 – 15 = 4 Increase the airflow
58º 14 – 15 = −1 (within +3º range) no change
62º 10 – 15 = −5 Decrease the airflow
4. Adjust the fan speedSee indoor unit instructions to in-
crease/decrease fan speed.
Changing air flow affects all temperatures; recheck temperatures to
confirm that the temperature drop and DT are within +3º.
