INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS R−410A Split System Heat Pump
6 428 01 5103 02
B. REFRIGERANT LINE SETS
The refrigerant line set must be properly sized to assure
maximum efficiency and proper oil circulation.
Refer to Product Specifications and Long Line
Applications Guideline for line set sizing.
NOTE: Total line set length must not exceed 200 feet
(61m).
NOTE: A crankcase heater must be used when the
refrigerant line length exceeds 80 feet (24.4m).
If outdoor unit is more than 10 feet (3m) higher than the
indoor coil, refer to the Long Line Applications Guideline
for instructions.
NOTE: When the outdoor unit is higher than the indoor
coil, the vertical separation must not exceed 100 feet
(30m).
NOTE: When the outdoor unit is lower than the indoor
coil, the vertical separation must not exceed 50 feet
(15.2m).
If it is necessary to add refrigerant line in the field, use
dehydrated or dry, sealed, deoxidized, copper
refrigeration tubing. Do not use copper water pipe.
Do not remove rubber plugs or caps from copper tubing
until connections are ready to be made.
Be extra careful when bending refrigeration tubing.
Tubing can “kink” easily, and if this occurs, the entire
length of tubing must be replaced.

WARNING
PERSONAL INJURY HAZARD
Failure to relieve system pressure could result in
personal injury and/or death.
Relieve pressure and recover all refrigerant before
servicing existing equipment, and before final unit
disposal. Use all service ports and open all flow−
control devices, including solenoid valves.
!
CAUTION
UNIT OPERATION HAZARD
Failure to follow this caution may result in improp-
er product operation.
Do not leave system open to atmosphere any lon-
ger than absolutely required for installation. Inter-
nal system components − especially refrigerant
oils − are extremely susceptible to moisture con-
tamination. Keep ends of tubing sealed during
installation until the last possible moment.
