NOTES:

  1. Do not exceed 200 ft linear line length.
  2. *Do not exceed 100 ft vertical separation if the outdoor unit is above the indoor unit.
  3. **A 3/4″ suction line should only be used for 1.5-ton systems if the outdoor unit is below or at the same level as the indoor to ensure proper oil return.
  4. Always use the smallest liquid line allowable to minimize refrigerant charge.
  5. Applications shaded in light gray indicate capacity multipliers between 0.90 and 0.96 which are not recommended but are allowed.
  6. Applications shaded in dark gray are not recommended due to excessive liquid or suction pressure drop.
