The thermostatic expansion valve is specifically designed to operate with R-410A. DO NOT use an R-22 TEV or evaporator. The existing evaporator must be replaced with the factory specified TEV evaporator specifically designed for R-410A. LOCATION Do not install the indoor evaporator coil in the return duct system of a gas or oil furnace. Provide a service inlet to the coil for inspection and cleaning. Keep the coil pitched toward the drain connection. ! CAUTION When coil is installed over a finished ceiling and/or living area, it is recommended that a secondary sheet metal condensate pan be constructed and installed under entire unit. Failure to do so can result in property damage. INTERCONNECTING TUBING VAPOR AND LIQUID LINES Keep all lines sealed until connection is made. Make connections at the indoor coil first.

The factory refrigeration charge in the outdoor unit is sufficient for the unit and 15 feet of standard size interconnecting liquid and vapor lines. For different lengths, adjust the charge as indicated below. 1/4" ± 0.3.2ooz.z.ppeer rfofotot 5/16" ± 0.4.3ooz.z.ppeer rfofotot 3/8" ± 0.6.5ooz.z.ppeer rfofotot 1/2" ± 1.02 oz. per foot MAXIMUM LENGTH OF LINES The maximum length of interconnecting line is 150 feet. Always use the shortest length possible with a minimum number of bends. Additional compressor oil is not required for any length up to 150 feet. NOTE: Excessively long refrigerant lines cause loss of equipment capacity. OUTDOOR UNIT INSTALLED ABOVE INDOOR COIL Keep the vertical separation between coils to a minimum. However, the vertical distance can be as great as 120 feet with the condensing unit ABOVE the indoor coil. Use the following guidelines when installing the unit: 1. DO NOT exceed 120 feet maximum vertical separation. 2. DO NOT change the flow check piston sizes if the vertical separation does not exceed the values in Table 64. 3. Flow Check Piston Coil: a.

If the separation height exceeds the Table value, reduce the indoor coil flow check piston by two sizes plus one size for additional 10 feet beyond the Table value. 4. Expansion Valve Coil: a. The vertical separation can be greater than the Table value, but no more than 120 feet. b. No changes are required for expansion valve coils. 10
