Lineset guidelines
Accurately measure the existing refrigerant lines if they are over 25′ and
calculate the additional footage.
When brazing use Nitrogen purge throughout the process.
Torque down the flare nuts per industry standards.
Pressurize the lineset only, leak test the fittings and the braze connections,
and verify that the system is 100% leak free.
Open the valves on the indoor unit only. Pull triple evacuation on the indoor
coil and linesets.
Charging guidelines
If the line set is over 31’ add .32oz per foot.| Lineset Length| Added charge
ex. 50’ line set is over by 19’ multiply the overage 19’ x .32 =6.08oz of
additional charge is required
