Indoor Unit Installation (Cont)
Prepare refrigeration Lines
• Refrigeration Lines and wiring can be routed from the indoor unit several different ways using the cut-out access
pieces on the back of the unit.
• Bend the refrigeration lines carefully to the position needed to align with the drilled piping hole.

Hang Indoor Unit
• Bundle the refrigeration lines, drainage hose, and wiring conduit attached to
the indoor unit and wrap them securely for enough length to extend through the
piping hole to the exterior of the building. (Note: leave remainder unwrapped to
allow for remaining step in installation of the outdoor unit and connecting the
indoor unit to the outdoor unit.)
•

Carefully push bundled lines through the piping hole.

•

Hang the unit on the wall by hooking the mounting slots of the unit over the
upper tabs of the rear panel.

•

Check to make sure the: unit is properly secured - it should feel firmly attached
to the wall, and you should not be able to slide it to the right or left.

-11-

Outdoor unit Installation
Connect Refrigeration Lines to Bundled Lines from Indoor Unit
•

Use standard A/C practices to attach the connection pipes to the proper pipes of the bundled lines coming
through the wall from the indoor unit.

•

Tighten the flare nut of the connection pipes using a spanner and torque
wrench. (see diagram)

•

Note: Do not over-tighten flare nuts, or the connection may be damaged.

Insulate/Bundle Refrigeration Lines and Wiring
•

Individually insulate all refrigeration lines and condensation drainage hose to
ensure that they do not sweat. This will help to maintain the unit at its proper capacities.

•

Once all lines have been properly insulated, bundle the refrigeration lines with the wiring conduit and wrap
securely to complete the run to the outdoor unit.

•

Note: The condensation drainage hose should be left free of the bundled lines in order to drain properly.

Install Outdoor Condensation Drainage Hose (Heat Pump Models only)
•

When the heat pump unit is heating or defrosting, wastewater forms in
the outdoor unit. This can be drained off using the outdoor drain elbow
and hose provided.

•

Insert the drain elbow into the hole on the base plate as shown.

•

Join the drain hose to the elbow and turn so that the water drains to the
desired location.
