INDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION
Prepare the evaporator for mounting
by removing the mounting bracket from
the rear of the indoor unit. Use a Phillips
head screwdriver to remove the unit pipe
strap. If the unit is a heat pump the de-
frost sensor also must be undone from its
retainer.
If mounting the unit on an outside wall
measure from the edges of the unit to the
center of the line set 90° bend to locate the
the center of the wall penetration. Drill a
3” ø hole through the wall. Angle the wall
penetration slightly down towards the out-
side to assist in draining the condensate
away from the unit.
The indoor unit weighs a maximum of
20 Lbs. Use wall anchors to secure the
mounting bracket to a wall stud and en-
sure that the wall is capable of holding the
weight of the unit.
Be sure mounting bracket is level, so that
the condensate can drain properly.

Prepare unit line set connections
Rotate refrigerant line stubs gently to 90°
(if mounting on an outside wall). For oth-
er line set configurations align the stubs
as required.
INDOOR UNIT INSTALLATION
Feed the 14 AWG interconnect wiring
between indoor and outdoor through
the unit electrical connection (maxi-
mum number of 6 wires is required) (if
required by local codes an electrical
connector can be attached to the rear
of the unit). Tape the loose wire to the
line set stubs. (See Electrical Wiring In-
stall section.) These two tips save time
and prevent damage to the stubs when
mounting the indoor unit.
duct tape
Tip: Use Duct tape to tape the Con-
densate hose (make sure it is below
the Line set stubs) and the defrost
sensor (heat pump only). This makes
it easier to guide them through the
hole in the wall.
Very Important! Make sure the de-
frost sensor wire is run and connected
between the indoor and outdoor units,
or the heat pump system will not oper-
ate in heat mode. Refer to “Heat Pump

Refrigerant Line Set Piping
Interconnecting line set between the outdoor
unit and the indoor unit, must have both re-
frigerant lines insulated as the expansion
device is located in the outdoor unit.
Gently bend the line set stubs from the in-
door unit to the desired location. Using 2
x 10”/12” Crescent wrenches remove the
fl are nuts from the indoor unit line stubs.
The indoor unit is fi lled with a dry gas,
check for release of this to ensure that no
leaks are present. Use a small amount of
vacuum pump oil on the male fl are threads
to ease installation.
Connect the line set to the stubs. Using
the 2 wrenches, 1 on the male and 1 on
the female tighten the fl are nuts. Run the
line set to the outdoor unit, avoid tight
bends and kinking the lines.

THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT:
Switching the L3 - L4 or N1 - L1 wires
will allow the indoor unit to operate
but it will not provide controls signals
for the outdoor unit so that the com-
pressor will not operate. Ground con-
nection should be made to ground
screw marked in indoor unit.
Ground wires connected to the terminal

12) Condensate Hose:
The unit is provided with approximately
18” of condensate hose connected. Hose
connection is sized to accept a 3/4” OD or
5/8” ID clear plastic hose to then extend to
building drain.
There is approximately 6’ of additional
drain hose supplied with the (accessory)
line set.
All condensate hose extensions should be
in accordance with local building codes.
Remember water only flows downhill to
ensure positive draining from the unit.
Check using water for a positive flow of
condensate.
The basic system installation is now com-
plete. The unit is now ready for start up.
SYSTEM START UP
With the evaporator and line set completely
evacuated the system can now be opened
to allow the refrigerant charge in the out-
door unit to be released into the line set.
The condenser is charged with enough
R410A refrigerant for 16 feet of interconnect.
For longer line set lengths additional charge
must be added in per the following table.
The service valves require a 6mm and a
5mm Allen wrench respectively to undo
the valve stems. Remove the brass caps
from the service valves. Open the suc-
tion line valve first to prevent any pos-
sible oil logging of the capillary tube ex-
pansion device that can occur if the liquid
line valve is opened first with the rest of
the system in a deep vacuum. Then open
the “Liquid or Expanded Gas” line.
Unscrew both valve stems until they come
to a stop against the valve body, replace
the brass caps, then tighten the caps to
prevent leaks. Energize the breaker to al-
low system to be powered.

FIELD CHARGING
The use of the superheat method is highly
recommended for field charging or check-
ing the existing refrigerant charge in a
system that is in the cooling cycle. Because
each installation is different in terms of
indoor air flow, refrigerant line length, etc..,
the factory charge may not be correct
for every application. To assure the best
performance from the air-conditioner, the
refrigerant charge should be checked and
adjusted, if need be, on each installation.
Note: Refrigerant superheat is the tem-
perature above the suction pressure at
its saturation temperature.
Note: If operating superheat is more than 5° F above the chart value, add refrigerant. If
below the chart value remove refrigerant. If below the limit line, remove refrigerant.
ENVIROAIR HIGH WALL DUCTLESS SPLIT SYSTEMS
For proper superheat readings, a standard
low-side refrigerant gauge and an accurate
thermometer is needed. A mercury or
stem-type thermometer is not adequate
for suction-line temperatures. We recom-
mend electric thermocouple thermometers
(available at most refrigeration wholesal-
ers); however an accurate remote-bulb
thermometer can be used. When measur-
ing the line temperature, be sure the ther-
mometer is securely attached to assure
accurate measurements. The chart below
gives superheat values at various outdoor
temperatures. Allow at least 5 minutes run-
ning time between charge adjustments for
the unit to stabilize.

Start the indoor unit, cooling mode is
only allowed when the outside ambient
temperature is above 60° F to prevent
damage to the compressor. Unit has a 3
minute time delay before the compressor
start up operation.
Note: If interconnect is less then 16
feet a small amount of refrigerant may
need to be reclaimed to achieve the
proper charge for optimal operation.
EnviroAir recommends fine tuning us-
ing the “Superheat” method.

Instructions:
1. Measure suction pressure and deter-
mine evaporator-refrigerant temperature
on R410A scale of low-side gauge.
2. Measure suction-line temperature on
suction line of the unit.
3. Measure outdoor and indoor tempera-
tures.
4. Determine from the table what the
superheat should be for the indoor and
outdoor temperatures.
5. Adjust charge if needed. Be sure unit is
running at stabilized condition.
