WARNING
!
This information is intended for use by individuals
possessing adequate backgrounds of electrical and
mechanical experience. Any attempt to repair a central
air conditioning product may result in personal injury
and/or property damage. The manufacture or seller
cannot be responsible for the interpretation of this
information, nor can it assume any liability in connec-
tion with its use.
These units use R-410A refrigerant which operates
at 50 to 70% higher pressures than R-22. Use only
R-410A approved service equipment. Refrigerant cyl-
inders are painted a “Rose” color to indicate the type
of refrigerant and may contain a “dip” tube to allow
for charging of liquid refrigerant into the system. All
R-410A systems use a POE oil that readily absorbs
moisture from the atmosphere. To limit this “hygro-
scopic” action, the system should remain sealed
whenever possible. If a system has been open to the
atmosphere for more than 4 hours, the compressor oil
must be replaced. Never break a vacuum with air and
always change the driers when opening the system
for component replacement. For specific handling
concerns with R-410A and POE oil reference Retrofit
Bulletins SS-APG006-EN and APP-APG011-EN.
Extreme caution should be exercised when opening
the Liquid Line Service Valve. Turn counterclockwise
until the valve stem just touches the rolled edge. No
torque is required. Failure to follow this warning will
result in abrupt release of system charge and may
result in personal injury and /or property damage.
UNIT CONTAINS R-410A REFRIGERANT!
R-410A operating pressures exceed the limit of R-22.
Proper service equipment is required. Failure to use
proper service tools may result in equipment damage
or personal injury.
SERVICE
USE ONLY R-410A REFRIGERANT AND AP-
PROVED POE COMPRESSOR OIL.

to Wall
Position the outdoor unit a minimum of 12” from
any wall or surrounding shrubbery to ensure
adequate airflow.
Outdoor unit location must be far enough away
from any structure to prevent excess roof runoff
water or icicles from falling directly on the unit.
NOTE: It is recommended that these precau-
tions be taken for units being installed in areas
where snow accumulation and prolonged below
freezing temperatures occur.
• Units should be elevated 3-12 inches above
the pad or rooftop, depending on local
weather. This additional height will allow
drainage of snow and ice melted during
defrost cycle prior to its refreezing. Ensure
that drain holes in unit base pan are not
obstructed preventing draining of defrost
water.
• If possible, avoid locations that are likely to
accumulate snow drifts. If not possible, a
snow drift barrier should be installed around
the unit to prevent a build-up of snow on the
sides of the unit.

unit, fifteen (15) feet of tested connecting line, and the smallest indoor evaporative coil match. If connecting line
length exceeds fifteen (15) feet and/or a larger indoor evaporative coil is installed, then final refrigerant
charge adjustment is necessary.

18-BC60D1-6 7
5.5 Reuse Existing Refrigerant Lines
For retrofit applications, where the existing
indoor evaporator coil and/or refrigerant lines
will be used, the following precautions should
be taken:
• Ensure that the indoor evaporator coil and
refrigerant lines are the correct size.
• Ensure that the refrigerant lines are free of
leaks, acid, and oil.
Important: For more information see publi-
cation numbers SS-APG006-EN and APP-
APG011-EN.
▲CAUTION
!
If using existing refrigerant lines make certain that
all joints are brazed, not soldered.
Section 6. Refrigerant Line Routing
6.1 Precautions
Important: Take precautions to prevent noise
within the building structure due to vibration
transmission from the refrigerant lines.
For Example:
• When the refrigerant lines have to be fastened to floor joists or other framing in a structure, use isolation type
hangers.
• Isolation hangers should also be used when refrigerant lines are run in stud spaces or enclosed ceilings.
• Where the refrigerant lines run through a wall or sill, they should be insulated and isolated.
• Isolate the lines from all ductwork.
• Minimize the number of 90º turns.
Comply with National, State, and Local Codes when
isolating line sets from joists, rafters, walls, or other
structural elements.

11.3 Defrost Control
Defrost controls have a selectable termination temperature. As shipped, defrost will terminate at 47°F. For a
higher termination temperature, cut Jumper J2 to achieve 70°F when at or below 30°F ambient. See Service
Facts shipped in the outdoor unit for more information.
Pin Identification (See Illustration at right)
1. TEST_COMMON (Shorting any of the other pins to this pin causes the function of the other pin to be
executed. Leaving this pin open results in the normal mode of operation.)
2. TST = Test (Shorting TEST_COMMON to this pin speeds up all defrost board timings.)
3. FRC_DFT = Forced Defrost (Short TEST_COMMON to this pin for two (2) seconds to initiate a forced
defrost. Remove the short after defrost initiates.)
Defrost Control Checkout
Normal operation requires:
• LED on board flashing 1 time/second.
• 24V AC between R & B.
• 24V AC between Y & B with unit operating.
• Defrost initiation when FRC_DFT pin is shorted to TEST_COMMON pin.
If a defrost control problem is suspected, refer to the service information in control box.

STEP 4 - Measure the liquid line temperature
and pressure at the outdoor unit’s service valve.
Measured Liquid Line Temp = __________ º F
Liquid Gage Pressure = __________ PSIG
Final Subcooling Value = __________ º F
STEP 5 - Use the final subcooling value, refriger-
ant temperature and pressure from STEP 4, to
determine the proper liquid gage pressure using
Table 14.2.
Example: Assume a 12º F Final Subcooling
value and liquid temp of 90º F.
1. Locate 12º F Final Subcooling in Table 14.2.
2. Locate the Liquid Temperarature (90º F) in
the left column.
3. The Liquid Gage Pressure should be ap-
proximately 327 PSIG. (This is the shown as
the intersection of the Final Subcooling column
and the Liquid Temperature row.
