INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Evacuation Instructions
1. Connect the charge hose of the manifold gauge to the service port on the outdoor unit's low pressure
valve.
2. Connect another charge hose from the manifold gauge to the vacuum pump.
3. Open the low pressure side of the manifold gauge. Keep the high pressure side closed.
4. Turn on the vacuum pump to evacuate the system.
5. Run the vacuum for at least 15 minutes or until the compound meter reads -76cmHG (-10
6. Close the low pressure side of the manifold gauge and turn off the vacuum pump.
7. Wait for 5 minutes then check that there has been no change in the system pressure.
8. If there is a change in the system pressure, refer to the Gas Leak Check section for information on how
to check the system for leaks. If there is no change in the system pressure, unscrew the cap from the
packaged high pressure valve.
9. Insert hexagonal wrench into the packed high pressure valve and open the valve by turning the wrench
in a 1/4 clockwise turn. Listen for gas to exit the system, then close the valve after 5 seconds.
10.
Watch the pressure gauge for 1 minute to ensure there is no change in the pressure. The pressure
gauge should read slightly higher than atmospheric pressure.
11.
Remove the charge hose from the service port.
12.
Using a hexagonal wrench, fully open both the high pressure and low pressure valves.
13.
Tighten valve caps on all three valves, (service port, high pressure and low pressure) by hand.
Tighten further with a torque wrench if necessary.
