  • All air conditioners contain refrigerants, which under federal law must be removed prior to product disposal. If you are disposing of an old product with refrigerants, check with the company handling disposal.
  • These R-410A systems require that contractors and technicians use tools, equipment and safety standards approved for use with this refrigerant. DO NOT use equipment certified for R22 refrigerant only.

WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Could cause injury or death.

  • An adequate ground is essential before connecting the power supply.
  • Disconnect electric power supplies before servicing.
  • Repair or replace immediately all electrical wiring that has become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use wiring that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end.

WARNING RISK OF FIRE. Could cause injury or death.

  •  Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

WARNING

This unit is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge. Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the unit. To avoid danger of suffocation, keep the plastic bag or thin film used as the packaging material away from young children.
Be sure not to allow foreign materials to enter the refrigerant piping. Seal the ends of refrigerant piping before storage. For installation purposes, be sure to use the parts supplied by the manufacturer or other prescribed parts. The use of non-prescribed parts can cause serious accidents such as the unit falling, water leakage, electric shock, or fire. The rated power supply of 18K to 48K product are 208/230 VAC/60hz/1PH. Verify the voltage is within 187~253 range before turning the equipment on. The rated power supply of 12K product is 110 VAC/60hz/1PH. Verify the voltage is within 103~127 range before turning the equipment on. Supply power should be from a dedicated circuit that meets branch circuit ampacity requirements. Use a special branch circuit breaker and receptacle matched to the power circuit capacity of the air conditioner. Install in accordance with national, state, and local code.

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE SYSTEM

CAUTION
It is highly recommended that you do not open or close the stop valves when the outdoor temperature is below -5°F (-21°C), as this may cause refrigerant leakage. Do not touch the fins of the coil. Touching the coil fins could result in damage to the fins or personal injury. Ensure the power circuit capacity is adequate for all loads connected to the electrical service panel. Increase the conductor and panel capacity if the total electrical loads exceed the power source capacity. Contact the power utility if the power provided is below equipment rating plate requirements. Be sure to install a circuit breaker of the specified capacity. Refer to local requirements regarding type and kind of circuit breaker, power wiring, and control cable. Regulation of cables and breaker differs from each locality. Be aware of these regulations prior to installation. Do not use existing refrigerant lines. Use refrigerant tubing that is clean and free of any contamination which may cause damage to the system, including sulfur, copper oxide, dust, metal chips, powder, oil or water. Avoid coupling lines whenever possible. Use a continuous length of copper tubing, as oxides formed during improper brazing techniques can damage the equipment. Do not use copper pipes that have a collapsed, deformed, or discolored portion (especially on the interior surface). Otherwise, the expansion valve or capillary tube may become blocked with contaminants. Improper line sizing will degrade performance. Peak pressure of R410A is much higher than R22. Use ACR copper tubing with adequate wall thickness. Use a tubing bender to change piping direction. Make sure the radius of the bend is no less than 4”. If the pipe is bent repeatedly at the same place, it will break.

Refrigerant Piping
The length of refrigerant lines, and the number of bends, determine the pressure drop which affects capacity, efficiency, and oil return to the compressor. The outdoor unit connections are braze type. Tube size should always be the same diameter as the connections provided at the service valves. Installing tubing sizes other than those shown can result in inadequate oil return to the compressor and excessive refrigerant charge, and will void the warranty.

Liquid O.D. (inch) 1/4″
Suction O.D. in ( Std ) 1/2″
Suction O.D. in ( Opt) 3/8″
Max. Refrigerant Line Length (inch) 82
Max. Elevation Vertical Lift (inch) 33

*Pipe length must not be less than 10 feet.
** Oil traps are required every 15 ft. when the outdoor unit is installed above the indoor unit.
Choose a location that places this unit as close to the indoor unit as possible. Use only clean refrigeration grade tubing. Always keep the tube ends capped until you are ready to make the final connections. Remove burrs from cut ends of tubing. Use tube benders to avoid kinking. Insulate the suction line with a wall thickness of at least 3/8”. Support the tubing adequately to avoid sags that can trap oil. Isolate the tubing so as not to transmit noise to the building structure. Avoid sharp edges that could cut the insulation or piping.

WARNING
It is illegal to discharge refrigerant into the atmosphere. Use proper recovery methods and equipment when working on parts of the unit containing refrigerant. Service should be performed by a qualified service agency and certified technician. Using the appropriate fittings if needed, attach the line set to the service valve stubs. Apply heat paste to stub next to the valve and wrap the valve body with a wet cloth. At the outdoor service valves, remove the valve cores. Introduce a purging flow of dry nitrogen through the first tube, allowing it to flow out of the flared connection stub. Braze connections with a brazing alloy. 15% braze rod is recommended. Repeat the above process for the second tube.

Pairing with A-coils
Manufacture recommend installing AHRI listed matched indoor and outdoor system. Installing approved matched indoor and outdoor system will provide optimum efficiency and best overall system reliability. AHRI certification for approved matched system can be verified in the AHRI site, Residential AC and AC coil section. https://www.ahridirectory.org/Search/SearchHome Under the warranty, damage caused by a used or unapproved component is not covered by the Standard Base Warranty. When installing the Side-discharge Outdoor Unit with non-AHRI listed 3rd party indoor equipment, manufacture will presume that any damage to the outdoor unit was not caused by the indoor equipment if the following installation guidance is followed.

Model 12K 18K 24K 30K 36K 48K
oz/ft 0.16 0.32

The service valves are shipped in the closed position and should not be opened until final connections, evacuation, and additional charging are completed.

The recommended procedure for leak test, evacuation, and charging is outlined below:

  1. Complete the final piping connections to the indoor and outdoor units.
  2. Remove the service core from both lines, and connect a charging manifold to the service ports on the service valves.
  3. Pressurize the lines and evaporator with 500 PSI of dry nitrogen. Leak check all connections with either an electronic detector or specialized liquids. Maintain pressure for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Release the nitrogen and connect a vacuum pump to the manifold center connection. Start the pump and open the manifold valves.
  5. Evacuate to 350 microns or less. Close the manifold valves and shut off the pump. If the vacuum level does not rise more than 150 microns in one minute, the evacuation is considered complete. Otherwise, the system is indicating either a leak or there is still moisture present.
  6. If a leak is found, repair as necessary and repeat steps 3, 4, and 5. If there are no leaks, continue with Step 5 until at least 350 microns is attained.
  7. Close the manifold valves and disconnect the vacuum pump. Reinstall the valve cores and add refrigerant in the amount shown in the charging section of this manual.
  8. Remove the caps from the services valves. Open the valves to the fully ‘back-seated’ position. Replace service valve caps and tighten securely.

Start-up
Operation of the unit is automatic and will provide cooling depending on the setting of the thermostat.

IMPORTANT
All panels must be installed, the main power turned on, and the thermostat properly connected before operating the unit.

  1. Set thermostat system switch to “Off” position and fan switch to “Auto” position, Turn the power supply breaker on.
  2. Set the fan switch to “On” and make sure the blower operates.
  3. Return the fan switch to “Auto” and wait until the blower stops. Set the system switch to “Cool” and lower thermostat set point to coldest setting. The compressor, condenser fan, and evaporator blower will start. Cool air will be supplied after several minutes of run time.
  4. Proceed to the “Fine Tuning” section of these instructions.

Hard Start Kits for 14-SEER Side
Discharge ODU
When inconsistent compressor starts are found, it is an approved fix to add a locally sourced “Hard Start” kit. A kit must include a capacitor and a relay. Replacing the OEM capacitor with one that has a higher micro-fared rating IS NOT an authorized repair and will void the warranty of the product.

Selecting the Correct Kit
Hard start kits are sized by compressor horsepower (HP). Use the chart below

Model HP
UUC112WC* 1
UUC118WC* 1.5
UUC124WC* 2
UUC130WC* 2.5
UUC136WC* 3
UUC148WC* 4

Installing Kit
The hard start kit must be installed in parallel with the compressor capacitor. To do this, connect the leads from the kit to either side of the compressor capacitor. The kit must also be secured to the chassis of the unit, and if required, grounded.GE-APPLIANCES-UUC112WC-Side-Discharge-Condensing-
Unit-16

Fine Tuning

  1. Allow the system to operate for at least 20 minutes before checking refrigerant temperature and pressure.
  2. Perform an air flow calculation to ensure the blower is delivering the correct volume of air at the pressure intended for the distribution system.
  3. When the above are completed, verify that the operating temperature and pressure comply with the chart.
    GE-APPLIANCES-UUC112WC-Side-Discharge-Condensing-
Unit-17

NOTE:   “IDT” = Indoor Temperature “ODT” = Outdoor Temperature

  1. Remove refrigerant if the pressure is above the chart value.
  2. Add refrigerant if the pressure is below the chart value.

Perform an inspection of the entire installation and finalize any items needed for completion. Review the system operation, thermostat functions, and warranty policy with the owner.
Leave this manual at the jobsite for future reference.

Operating Instructions
This system is designed to provide comfort cooling at outside temperatures between 50°F (10°C) and 115°F(46°C). Operation outside of this temperature range may cause unit failure and will void the warranty.

To Operate:
NOTE: Thermostat operation may vary by type and model used. Please consult the operating manual provided with the thermostat. The instructions below are generalized for most models.

  1. Move the switch on the thermostat to the Cool position.
  2. Set the desired temperature (between 63-86°F or 17-30°C) on the thermostat. If the room is warmer than the setting, the unit will turn on and begin to blow cool air after a few minutes. A hot, humid room or building may take several hours of continuous operation to reach the thermostat setting when starting for the first time or at the beginning of the cooling season.
  3. Set the Fan switch on the thermostat to Auto if you want the fan to run only when cooling is needed, or to On if you want continuous air circulation.
  4. If the space will be unoccupied for four or more hours, moving the setting to a higher temperature may save energy. Do not raise the temperature setting by more than 5 degrees. Changing the temperature over 5 degrees, or turning the unit off can actually cost more.
  5. Be sure that furniture or other objects do not block supply air registers or return air grilles.

IMPORTANT
If the system is turned off, wait at least 3 minutes before restarting it. This gives the unit time to stabilize. Failure to do so could cause compressor damage.

Maintenance:

  1. Change or clean the air filter monthly, or more often if conditions require it. Thoroughly dry a washable filter before re-installing.
  2. Contact the installer for factory recommended annual maintenance.

Final Check
System Test
Please explain to the customer how to operate the system by using the Owner’s Manual found with the indoor unit.

Explaining Operation To the End User

  • Using the User Manual, explain to the user how to use the air conditioner (thermostat, adding/removing the air filters, cleaning methods, precautions for operation, etc.)
  • Review precautions for operation.
  • Recommend that the user read the Operating Instructions carefully.

Check Items for Test Run

  •  No gas leak from linseeds?
  • Are the linseeds insulated properly?
  • Are the connecting wirings of indoor and outdoor firmly inserted to the terminal block?
  • Is the connecting wiring of indoor and outdoor fixed? Is condensate draining correctly?
  • Is the ground wire securely connected? Is the indoor unit securely fixed?
  • Is power source voltage correct according to local code? Is there any odd noise?
  • Does the cooling temperature drop between 20-30°F? Is the room temperature display accurate?
