IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
WARNINGS:
• These instructions are intended as an aid to
qualified, licensed service personnel for proper
installation, adjustment, and operation of this
unit� Read these instructions thoroughly before
attempting installation or operation� Failure to
follow these instructions may result in improper
installation, adjustment, service, or maintenance
possibly resulting in fire, electrical shock,
property damage, personal injury, or death.
• The unit must be permanently grounded. Failure
to do so can cause electrical shock resulting in
severe personal injury or death.
• Turn off electric power at the fuse box or service
panel before making any electrical connections.
• Complete the ground connection before making
line voltage connections. Failure to do so can
result in electrical shock, severe personal injury,
or death.
• Disconnect all power to unit before starting
maintenance. Failure to do so can cause
electrical shock resulting in severe personal
injury or death.
• Never assume the unit is properly wired and/or
grounded. Always test the unit cabinet with a
noncontact voltage detector available at most
electrical supply houses or home centers before
removing access panels or coming into contact
with the unit cabinet.
• Do not use oxygen to purge lines or pressurize
system for leak test. Oxygen reacts violently with
oil, which can cause an explosion resulting in
severe personal injury or death.
• The top of the scroll compressor shell is hot�
Touching the compressor top may result in serious
personal injury�
• The manufacturer’s warranty does not cover
any damage or defect to the unit caused by the
attachment or use of any components, accessories,
or devices (other than those authorized by the
manufacturer) into, onto, or in conjunction with
the heat pump� You should be aware that the
use of unauthorized components, accessories,
or devices may adversely affect the operation
of the heat pump and may also endanger life
and property. The manufacturer disclaims any
responsibility for such loss or injury resulting
from the use of such unauthorized components,
accessories, or devices�
CAUTIONS:
• R-410A systems operate at approximately 60%
higher pressures (1�6 times) than R-22 systems� Do
not use R-22 service equipment or components on
R-410A equipment� Use appropriate care when using
this refrigerant� Failure to exercise care may result in
equipment damage or personal injury�
• Only match this outdoor unit with a matched indoor
coil or air handler approved for use with this outdoor
unit per the unit manufacturer’s specification sheet�
The use of unmatched coils or air handler will likely
result in a charge imbalance between the cooling
and heating modes which can cause unsatisfactory
operation including a high-pressure switch lockout
condition�
• Only use indoor coils approved for use on R-410A
systems� An R-22 coil will have a TXV or fixed
restrictor device that is not designed to operate
properly in an R-410A system and will result in
serious operational issues� The R-22 coil could also
contain mineral oil which is incompatible with the
POE oil used in R-410A systems and could result in
reliability issues with the compressor and TXVs�
• When coil is installed over a finished ceiling and/or
living area, it is required that a secondary sheet metal
condensate pan be constructed and installed under
the entire unit� Failure to do so can result in property
damage�
• The compressor has an internal overload protector�
Under some conditions, it can take up to 2 hours for
this overload to reset� Make sure overload has had
time to reset before condemning the compressor�
• UNIT MAY START SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT
WARNING� Solid red light indicates a thermostat
call for unit operation is present at the ICC control�
ICC control will attempt to start unit after short cycle
timer expires or, when in Active Protection mode, will
attempt to restart unit prior to Lockout mode�

Improper installation, or installation not made in
accordance with these instructions, can result
in unsatisfactory operation and/or dangerous
conditions and can cause the related warranty
not to apply.
The condensing unit is designed to operate with
standard 24 VAC thermostats and air handlers or
gas furnaces�
This installation instruction manual contains
complete instructions for installation and setup
using conventional 24 VAC controls� Please refer
to the manufacturer’s specification sheets for
complete performance data, thermostat, and
accessory listings�
The information contained in this manual has
been prepared to assist in the proper installation,
operation, and maintenance of the air conditioning
system�
Read this manual and any instructions packaged
with separate equipment required to make up the
system prior to installation� Homeowner should
retain this manual for future reference�
To achieve optimum efficiency and capacity, the
indoor cooling coils listed in the manufacturer’s
specification sheet must be used for this model
heat pump�
Checking Product Received
Upon receiving unit, inspect it for any shipping
damage� Claims for damage, either apparent or
concealed, should be filed immediately with the
shipping company� Check model number, electrical
characteristics, and accessories to determine if they
are correct� Check system components (indoor coil,
outdoor unit, air handler/furnace, etc�) to make sure
they are properly matched�
Application
Before specifying any air conditioning equipment,
a survey of the structure and a heat gain
calculation must be made� A cooling heat gain
calculation determines the amount of heat needed
to be removed� A heat gain calculation also
calculates the extra heat load caused by sunlight
and by humidity removal� These factors must be
considered before selecting an air conditioning
system to provide year-round comfort� The Air
Conditioning Contractors of America (ACCA)
J Manual method of load calculation is one
recognized procedure for determining the heating
and cooling load�
After the proper equipment combination has
been selected, satisfying both sensible and
latent requirements, the system must be properly
installed� Only then can the unit provide the
comfort it was designed to provide�
There are several factors that installers must
consider�
• Outdoor unit location
• Indoor unit blower speed and airflow
• Proper equipment evacuation
• Supply and return air duct design and sizing
• Refrigerant charge
• System air balancing
• Diffuser and return air grille location and sizing

INSTALLATION
Choosing a Location
IMPORTANT: Consult local and
national building codes and ordinances for special
installation requirements� Following location
information will provide longer life and simplified
servicing of the outdoor unit�
NOTICE: These units must be installed
outdoors� No ductwork can be attached, or
other modifications made, to the discharge grille�
Modifications will affect performance or operation�
Operational Issues
IMPORTANT: Locate the unit
in a manner that will not prevent, impair, or
compromise the performance of other equipment
installed in proximity to the unit� Maintain all
required minimum distances to gas and electric
meters, dryer vents, and exhaust and inlet
openings� In the absence of national codes or
manufacturers’ recommendations, local code
recommendations and requirements will take
precedence�
• Refrigerant piping and wiring should be properly
sized and kept as short as possible to avoid
capacity losses and increased operating costs�
• Locate the unit where water runoff will not create
a problem with the equipment� Position the unit
away from the drip edge of the roof whenever
possible� Units are weatherized, but can be
affected by the following:
• Water pouring into the unit from the junction
of rooflines, without protective guttering�
Large volumes of water entering the unit while
in operation can impact fan blade or motor
life, and coil damage may occur if moisture
cannot drain from the unit under freezing
conditions�
• Closely follow the clearance recommendations
on page 8�
• 24" [61.0 cm] to the service panel access
• 60" [152.4 cm] above fan discharge (unit top)
to prevent recirculation
• 6" [15.2 cm] to coil grille air inlets
with 12" [30.5 cm] minimum recommended
Corrosive Environment
The metal parts of this unit may be subject to
rust or deterioration if exposed to a corrosive
environment� This oxidation could shorten the
equipment’s useful life�
Corrosive elements include, but are not limited to,
salt spray, fog or mist in seacoast areas, sulphur or
chlorine from lawn watering systems, and various
chemical contaminants from industries such as
paper mills and petroleum refineries�
If the unit is to be installed in an area where
contaminants are likely to be a problem, special
attention should be given to the equipment
location and exposure�
• Avoid having lawn sprinkler heads spray directly
on the unit cabinet�
• In coastal areas, locate the unit on the side of
the building away from the waterfront�
• Shielding provided by a fence or shrubs may
give some protection, but cannot violate
minimum airflow and service access clearances�
• Elevating the unit off its slab or base enough to
allow air circulation will help avoid holding water
against the base pan�
WARNING: Disconnect all power
to unit before starting maintenance� Failure to do
so can cause electrical shock resulting in severe
personal injury or death�
Regular maintenance will reduce the buildup of
contaminants and help to protect the unit’s finish�
• Frequent washing of the cabinet, fan blade, and
coil with fresh water will remove most of the salt
or other contaminants that build up on the unit�
• Regular cleaning and waxing of the cabinet with
a good automobile polish will provide some
protection�
• A good liquid cleaner may be used several times
a year to remove matter that will not wash off
with water�

Choosing a Location (cont�)
For Units With Space
Limitations
In the event that a space limitation exists, we will
permit the following clearances:
Single-Unit Applications: Clearances below 6"
[15.2 cm] will reduce unit capacity and efficiency.
Do not reduce the 60" [152.4 cm] discharge or the
24" [61.0 cm] service clearances.
Multiple-Unit Applications: When multiple
condenser grille sides are aligned, a 6" [15.2 cm]
per unit clearance is recommended for a total of
12" [30.5 cm] between two units. Two combined
clearances below 12" [30.5 cm] will reduce
capacity and efficiency. Do not reduce the 60"
[152.4 cm] discharge or 24" [61.0 cm] service
clearances�
Customer Satisfaction Issues
• The unit should be located away from the living,
sleeping, and recreational spaces of the owner
and those spaces on adjoining property�
• To prevent noise transmission, the mounting pad
for the outdoor unit should not be connected to
the structure and should be located a sufficient
distance above grade to prevent ground water
from entering the unit�
Unit Mounting
WARNING: Secure an elevated unit
and its elevating stand in order to prevent tipping�
Failure to do so may result in severe personal
injury or death�
Elevation of Unit
If elevating the unit, either on a flat roof or on a
slab, observe the following guidelines�
• The base pan provided elevates the unit 3/4"
[1.9 cm] above the base pad.
• If elevating a unit on a flat roof, use 4" x 4"
[10.2 cm x 10.2 cm] or equivalent stringers
positioned to distribute unit weight evenly and
prevent noise and vibration�
• Where snowfall is anticipated, raise the unit
above the base pad to prevent ice buildup and
coil damage� Mount the unit high enough to be
above the average accumulated area snowfall�
See “Ground Snow Depth” chart on page 9 for
representative snow depths�

Tools Required for Installing
and Servicing R-410A Models
Manifold Sets:
– Up to 800 PSIG High-Side
– Up to 250 PSIG Low-Side
– 550 PSIG Low-Side Retard
Manifold Hoses:
– Service Pressure Rating of 800 PSIG
Recovery Cylinders:
– 400 PSIG Pressure Rating
– Dept� of Transportation 4BA400 or BW400
CAUTION: R-410A systems operate
at higher pressures than R-22 systems� Do not
use R-22 service equipment or components on
R-410A equipment�
Specifications of R-410A
Application: R-410A is not a drop-in
replacement for R-22�Equipment designs must
accommodate its higher pressures� It cannot be
retrofitted into R-22 heat pumps�
Physical Properties: R-410A has an atmospheric
boiling point of -62.9°F [-52.7°C] and its saturation
pressure at 77°F [25°C] is 224.5 psig.
Composition: R-410A is a near-azeotropic
mixture of 50% by weight difluoromethane (HFC-
32) and 50% by weight pentafluoroethane (HFC-
125)�
Pressure: The pressure of R-410A is
approximately 60% (1�6 times) greater than
R-22� Recovery and recycle equipment, pumps,
hoses, and the like must have design pressure
ratings appropriate for R-410A� Manifold sets
need to range up to 800 psig high-side and 250
psig low-side with a 550 psig low-side retard.
Hoses need to have a service pressure rating of
800 psig. Recovery cylinders need to have a 400
psig service pressure rating, DOT 4BA400 or DOT
BW400.
Combustibility: At pressures above 1
atmosphere, a mixture of R-410A and air can
become combustible� R-410A and air should
never be mixed in tanks or supply lines or
be allowed to accumulate in storage tanks�
Leak checking should never be done with a
mixture of R-410A and air� Leak-checking can
be performed safely with nitrogen or a mixture of
R-410A and nitrogen�
Quick-Reference Guide For
R-410A
• R-410A refrigerant operates at approximately
60% higher pressure (1�6 times) than R-22�
Ensure that servicing equipment is designed to
operate with R-410A�
• R-410A refrigerant cylinders are light rose in
color�
• R-410A, as with other HFCs, is only compatible
with POE oils�
• Vacuum pumps will not remove moisture from
POE oil used in R-410A systems�
• R-410A systems are to be charged with liquid
refrigerants� Prior to March 1999, R-410A
refrigerant cylinders had a dip tube� These
cylinders should be kept upright for equipment
charging� Post-March 1999 cylinders do not
have a dip tube and should be inverted to ensure
liquid charging of the equipment�
• Do not install a suction line filter drier in the
liquid line�
• A factory-approved biflow liquid line filter drier
is shipped with every unit and must be installed
in the liquid line at the time of installation� Only
manufacturer-approved liquid line filter driers can
be used� These are Sporlan (CW083S) and Alco
(80K083S) driers� These filter driers are rated for
minimum working pressure of 600 psig� The filter
drier will only have adequate moisture-holding
capacity if the system is properly evacuated�
• Desiccant (drying agent) must be compatible for
POE oils and R-410A refrigerant�

INSTALLATION
Replacement Units
To prevent failure of a new unit, the existing line set
must be correctly sized and cleaned or replaced�
Care must be exercised that the expansion device
is not plugged� For new and replacement units, a
liquid line filter drier must be installed and refrigerant
tubing must be properly sized� Test the oil for acid� If
positive, a suction line filter drier is mandatory�
IMPORTANT: When replacing an
R-22 unit with an R-410A unit, either replace
the line set or ensure that the existing line set is
thoroughly flushed of any old oil or debris� Flush
kits are available through aftermarket HVAC stores
such as Prostock�
Indoor Coil
CAUTION: Only use evaporators
approved for use on R-410A systems that are
specifically matched with the outdoor unit per
the manufacturer’s specification sheets� Use
of existing R-22 evaporators can introduce
mineral oil to the R-410A refrigerant, forming two
different liquids and decreasing oil return to the
compressor� This can result in compressor failure�
REFER TO INDOOR COIL MANUFACTURER’S
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.
IMPORTANT: The manufacturer is not
responsible for the performance and operation of
a mismatched system or for a match listed with
another manufacturer’s coil�
NOTICE: All (-)PRL units must be
installed with a matched TXV indoor coil� Refer to
manufacturer’s outdoor unit specification sheet for
approved indoor coils�
The thermostatic expansion valve in the
matching coil is specifically designed to operate
with R-410A� DO NOT use an R-22 TXV or
evaporator� The existing evaporator must
be replaced with the factory-specified TXV
evaporator specifically designed for R-410A�
Location
Do not install the indoor coil in the return duct
system of a gas or oil furnace� Provide a service
inlet to the coil for inspection and cleaning� Keep
the coil pitched toward the drain connection�
CAUTION: When coil is installed
over a finished ceiling and/or living area, it is
required that a secondary condensate pan be
installed under entire unit� Failure to do so can
result in property damage�
Interconnecting Tubing
All units are factory-charged with R-410A
refrigerant to cover 15 feet of line set� Adjustment
of charge may be necessary even if the application
has exactly 15 feet of line due to other installation
variables and conditions� All models are supplied
with service valves� Keep tube ends sealed until
connection is to be made to prevent system
contamination�
Vapor and Liquid Lines
Keep all lines sealed until connection is made�
Make connections at the indoor coil first�
Refer to line size information in the tables on page
12 for correct size and multipliers to be used to
determine capacity for various vapor line diameters
and lengths of run� The losses due to the lines
being exposed to outdoor conditions are not
included�
The factory refrigeration charge in the outdoor
unit is sufficient for the unit and 15 feet [4.6 m]
of standard size interconnecting liquid and vapor
lines without a filter drier� For different lengths,
adjust the charge as indicated below�
1/4" ± .3 oz./foot [6.4 mm ± 8.5 g/.30 m]
5/16" ± .4 oz./foot [7.9 mm ± 11.3 g/.30 m]
3/8" ± .6 oz./foot [9.5 mm ± 17.0 g/.30 m]
1/2" ± 1.2 oz./foot [12.7 mm ± 34.0 g/.30 m]
Add 6 oz� for field-installed filter drier�
Maximum Length of Lines
The maximum length of interconnecting line is
150 feet [45.7 m]. Always use the shortest length
possible with a minimum number of bends�
Additional compressor oil is not required for any
length up to 150 feet [45.7 m].
NOTICE: Excessively long refrigerant
lines cause loss of equipment capacity�

Use the following guidelines when installing the unit:
1� Expansion Valve Coil:
a� The vertical separation cannot exceed the
value in the tables below�
b� No changes are required for expansion valve
coils due to vertical separation or line length�
2� It is recommended to use the smallest liquid line
size permitted to minimize the system charge�
3� The tables below may be used for sizing lines
for a combination of horizontal and vertical runs�
VAPOR LINE SIZING
Allowed suction line size is determined by total line length based on oil return� Liquid size determines total line length and vertical separa-
tion� After selecting allowed suction line by outdoor unit position, see the liquid line chart for allowable vertical height and total line length�

Tubing Installation
Observe the following when installing correctly
sized type “L” refrigerant tubing between the
condensing unit and evaporator coil:
• Check the tables on page 12 for the correct
suction line size and liquid line size�
• If a portion of the liquid line passes through a
very hot area where liquid refrigerant can be
heated to form vapor, insulating the liquid line is
required�
• Use clean, dehydrated, sealed refrigeration-
grade tubing�
• Always keep tubing sealed until tubing is in place
and connections are to be made�
• A high-quality biflow filter drier is included
with all R-410A heat pump units and must be
installed in the liquid line upon unit installation�
• When replacing an R-22 system with an R-410A
system and the line set is not replaced, use a
flush kit available through aftermarket stores
such as Prostock�
• If tubing has been cut, make sure ends are
deburred while holding in a position to prevent
chips from falling into tubing� Burrs such as
those caused by tubing cutters can affect
performance dramatically, particularly on small
liquid line sizes�
• For best operation, keep tubing run as short as
possible with a minimum number of elbows or
bends�
• Locations where the tubing will be exposed to
mechanical damage should be avoided� If it is
necessary to use such locations, the copper
tubing should be housed to prevent damage�
VAPOR LINE CAPACITY MULTIPLIER (PERFORMANCE PENALTY)
NOTES:
1� Using suction line larger than shown in chart will result in poor oil return and is not recommended�
2� Do NOT exceed the limits in the liquid and vapor line-sizing charts�
3� Do NOT use 7/8” OD vapor lines in 1-1/2 or 2-ton applications or 1 1/8” OD vapor lines for any applications�

Tubing

16
• If tubing is to be run underground, it must be run
in a sealed watertight chase�
• Use care in routing tubing and do not kink or
twist� Use a good tubing bender on the vapor
line to prevent kinking�
• Route the tubing using temporary hangers; then
straighten the tubing and install permanent
hangers� Line must be adequately supported�
• If the vapor line comes in contact with inside
walls, ceiling, or flooring, the vibration of the
vapor line in the heating mode will result in noise
inside the structure�
• Blow out the liquid and vapor lines with dry
nitrogen before connecting to the outdoor unit
and indoor coil� Any debris in the line set will end
up plugging the expansion device�
Tubing Connections
Indoor coils have only a holding charge of
dry nitrogen� Keep all tube ends sealed until
connections are to be made�
• Use type “L” copper refrigeration tubing. Braze
the connections with the following alloys:
– copper to copper, 5% silver minimum
– copper to steel or brass, 15% silver minimum
• Be certain both refrigerant shutoff valves at the
outdoor unit are closed�
• Remove the caps and Schrader cores from the
pressure ports to protect seals from heat damage�
Both the Schrader valves and the service valves
have seals that may be damaged by excessive heat�
• Clean the inside of the fittings and outside of the
tubing with a clean, dry cloth before soldering�
Clean out debris, chips, dirt, etc�, that enters tubing
or service valve connections�
• Wrap valves with a wet rag or thermal barrier
compound before applying heat�

• Braze the tubing between the outdoor unit and
indoor coil� Flow dry nitrogen into a pressure port
and through the tubing while brazing, but do not
allow pressure inside tubing which can result in
leaks� Once the system is full of nitrogen, the
nitrogen regulator should be turned off to avoid
pressuring the system�
• A fter brazing, use an appropriate heatsink material
to cool the joint�
• Reinstall the Schrader cores into both pressure
ports�
• Do not allow the vapor line and liquid line to
be in contact with each other� This causes an
undesirable heat transfer resulting in capacity
loss and increased power consumption�
Leak Testing
Indoor coils have only a holding charge of dry
nitrogen� Keep all tube ends sealed until
connections are to be made�
WARNING: Do not use oxygen
to purge lines or pressurize system for leak test�
Oxygen reacts violently with oil, which can cause
an explosion resulting in severe personal injury or
death�
• Pressurize line set and coil through service fittings
with dry nitrogen to 150 PSIG maximum� Close
nitrogen tank valve, let system sit for at least
15 minutes, and check to see if the pressure has
dropped� If the pressure has dropped, check for
leaks at the line set braze joints with soap bubbles
and repair leak as necessary� Repeat pressure
test� If line set and coil hold pressure, proceed
with line set and coil evacuation (see page 21)�
• The vapor line must be insulated for its entire
length to prevent dripping (sweating) and prevent
performance losses� Closed-cell foam insulation
such as Armaflex and Rubatex®are satisfactory
insulations for this purpose. Use 1/2" [12.7 mm]
minimum insulation thickness� Additional
insulation may be required for long runs�

The air distribution system has the greatest effect
on airflow� The duct system is totally controlled
by the contractor� For this reason, the contractor
should use only industry-recognized procedures�
The correct air quantity is critical to air
conditioning systems� Proper operation, efficiency,
compressor life, and humidity control depend
on the correct balance between indoor load
and outdoor unit capacity� Excessive indoor
airflow increases the possibility of high humidity
problems� Low indoor airflow reduces total
capacity and causes coil icing� Serious harm can
be done to the compressor by low airflow, such as
that caused by refrigerant flooding�
Air conditioning systems require a specified
airflow� Each ton of cooling requires between 350
and 450 cubic feet of air per minute (CFM)� See
the manufacturer’s spec sheet for rated airflow for
the system being installed�
Duct design and construction should be carefully
done� System performance can be lowered
dramatically through bad planning or workmanship�
Air supply diffusers must be selected and located
carefully� They must be sized and positioned
to deliver treated air along the perimeter of the
space� If they are too small for their intended
airflow, they become noisy� If they are not located
properly, they cause drafts� Return air grilles must
be properly sized to carry air back to the blower� If
they are too small, they also cause noise�
The installers should balance the air distribution
system to ensure proper quiet airflow to all rooms in
the home� This ensures a comfortable living space�
These simple mathematical formulas can be used
to determine the CFM in a residential or light
commercial system�
Electric resistance heaters can use:
CFM = volts x amps x 3�413
SHC x temp rise
Gas furnaces can use:
CFM = Output Capacity in BTUH*
SHC x temp rise
*Refer to furnace data plate for furnace output capacity�
SHC = Sensible Heat Constant (see table below)
An air velocity meter or airflow hood can give a
more accurate reading of the system CFM�
The measurement for temperature rise should be
performed at the indoor coil inlet and near the
outlet, but out of direct line of sight of the heater
element or heat exchanger� For best results,
measure air temperature at multiple points and
average the measurements to obtain coil inlet and
outlet temperatures�
START-UP
Start-Up
At initial start-up or after extended shutdown
periods, make sure the crankcase heater is
energized for at least 12 hours before the
compressor is started� (Disconnect switch is
on and wall thermostat is off�)
Connect the communicating system according to
the wiring diagram on page 17� Once all devices
are connected, power up the line and low voltage
to the system� When all devices are powered, the
thermostat should detect the indoor and outdoor
units within 45 seconds�
Even though the unit is factory-charged with
Refrigerant-410A, the charge must be checked
to the charge table attached to the service panel
and adjusted, if required� Allow a minimum of
15 minutes of run time before analyzing charge�
