Purging the system with a vacuum pump 1. Check that each tube (both liquid and gas side tubes) between the indoor and outdoor units have been properly connected and all wiring for the test run has been completed. Remove the service valve caps from both the gas and the liquid side on the outdoor unit. Note that both the liquid and the gas side service valves on the outdoor unit are kept closed at this stage. 2. When relocating the unit to another place, perform evacuation using vacuum pump. 3. Oil trap should be installed every 16'-25' (no oil trap needed when outdoor unit installed at a lower place than indoor unit). 4. Pipe length and refrigerant amount for single split type air conditioner.
