OUTDOOR UNIT POSITIONING CONSIDERATIONS
(AIR CONDITIONER OR HEAT PUMP)
Consider the following when positioning the unit:
• Some localities are adopting sound ordinances based
on the unit's sound level -registered from the adjacent
property, not from the property where the unit is
installed. Install the unit as far as possible from the
property line.
• When possible, do not install the unit directly outside a
window. Glass has a very high level of sound
transmission. For proper placement of unit in relation to
a window see the provided illustration in figure 2.
• Install unit level or, if on a slope, maintain slope
tolerance of 2 degrees (or 2 inches per 5 feet (50 mm
per 1.5 m)] away from building structure.
• Install the unit high enough above the ground or roof to
allow adequate drainage of defrost water and prevent
ice or snow build-up (required for heat pumps).
• In heavy snow areas, do not locate the unit where
drifting will occur. The unit base should be elevated
above the depth of average snows.
• When installed in areas where low ambient
temperatures exist, locate unit so winter prevailing
winds do not blow directly onto outdoor unit..
• Locate unit away from overhanging roof lines which
would allow water or ice to drop on, or in front of, coil or
into unit.
CONDENSATE DRAINAGE REQUIREMENT
(HEAT PUMP ONLY)
Condensate formed during the heating and defrost
processes must be drained from heat pump units. Drain
holes are provided in the base of the units to ensure proper
drainage. Heat pumps must be raised when installed on a
concrete pad or the ground to allow drainage to occur. If
the heat pump unit is installed on a wall mounting bracket,
insert the provided drain connector into one of the 1 inch
(25mm) drain holes and attached a Feld -provided
insulated drain hose to the connector. Use the provided
rubber plugs to cover any unused drain holes (figure 3).
Indoor Unit Front Case Removal
This section describes how to remove the indoor unit front
case.
NOTE — This procedure may vary slightly on differently
sized units.
REMOVING AIR FILTER AND FRONT PANEL
1. Lift front panel out and up to remove.
2. Remove the air filters.
3. Loosen the clasps that secure the louvers to the case
cover. Bend the louver slightly to remove it.
4. Remove the screw(s) that secure the indoor terminal
strip access cover.

Figure 3. Condensate Drainage (Heat Pumps Only --
Unit Installed on Field -Provided Wall -Mounting Frame)
SLAB OR ROOF MOUNTING
Install the unit a minimum of 4 inches (102 mm) above the
roof or ground surface to avoid ice build-up around the unit.
Locate the unit above a load beating wall or area of the roof
that can adequately support the unit. Consult local codes
for rooftop applications (figure 4).
GROUND
LEVEL
Install unit level or maintain slope tolerance of 2
degrees (or 2 inches per 5 feet [50 mm per 1.5 m])
away from building structure.
Figure 4. Slope Tolerance
SECURING OUTDOOR UNIT TO SLAB OR FRAME
-If the outdoor unit is installed on a field -provided slab or
frame, use lag bolts or equivalent to secure the outdoor
unit to the slab or frame (figure 5).
Figure 5. Securing Outdoor Unit to Slab
PREVAILING WINDS (HEAT PUMP ONLY)
If unit coil cannot be installed away from prevailing winter
winds, a wind barrier should be constructed. Size barrier at
least the same height and width as outdoor unit. Install
barrier 12 inches minimum (305 mm) from the sides of the
unit in the direction of prevailing winds as illustrated in
figure 6.

Sensor
The indoor temperature sensor may be installed in an
alternate location to facilitate shipping (figure 7). If
necessary, relocate sensor to the proper position shown in
figure 8. Refer to the procedure on page 31 for removal of
the front cover.
Figure 7. Sensor Shipping Location
Page 30 Page 7
Figure B. Correct Sensor Location
Indoor Unit Placement and Preparation
INDOOR UNIT LOCATION
Minimum clearances must be maintained as specified in
figure 2. In addition, the following items should be
considered:
AVOID
1. Direct sunlight if possible.
2. Locating unit less than 3-1/4" (1 meter) away from
combustible materials and vapors.
3. Locating unit near heat sources which could affect
system performance.
DO:
1. Locate the indoor unit where the room can be
uniformly cooled. Install unit as high as possible on the
wall for best performance.
2. Select a wall location that can support the weight of the
unit.
3. Select a location where line set and condensate line
will have the shortest run to the outside of the
structure.
4. Allow sufficient space around unit for proper operation
and maintenance.
5. Consider vertical rise between the indoor unit and
outdoor unit. Do not exceed the maximum vertical line
rise of the line set between the indoor unit and outdoor
unit (table 5).
6. Install the indoor unit a minimum of 36 inches (914
mm) away from any antenna, power cord (line), radio,
telephone, security system, or intercom. Electrical
noise and radio frequencies from any of these sources
may affect operation.
DETERMINING WALL MOUNTING BRACKET
LOCATION
1. Remove the wall mounting bracket from the indoor
unit.
A. Remove the shipping screw that secures the wall
mounting bracket to the rear of the unit.
B. Remove bracket from rear panel of indoor unit.
Figure 9. Wall Mounting Bracket Removal from
Indoor Unit
2. Determine the best exit location for utility bundle (line
set, condensate line and wiring).
Figure 10. Determining Exit Location
NOTE — If opposite -side exit is preferred, see figure 18 to
switch condensate line and drain cap.
3. Use the wall mounting bracket as a template to
determine the exit point for utility bundle (figure 11 or
12).

wiring must conform with current local codes and the current
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC).
Refer to unit nameplate for minimum circuit ampacity and
maximum overcurrent protection size.
Indoor and Outdoor Error Codes
This section identifies error codes that appear on the front panel of the indoor unit or outdoor unit control. Many of the error codes
will automatically dear themselves when the error no longer exists. However some error codes may require disconnecting power
to the system at the unit disconnect switch or circuit breaker in order to clear them and to resume normal system operation.
. The temperature readout (either
temperature setpoint or indoor
ambient) will be replaced by an
error code if there is a malfunction.
If multiple errors are detected, the
display will alternate between each
error code.

Maintenance
OUTDOOR UNIT
1. Ensure power is off before cleaning.
2. It may be necessary to wash the outdoor coil more
frequently if it is exposed to substances which are
corrosive or which block airflow, across the coil (e.g.,
pet urine, cottonwood seeds, fertilizers, fluids that may
contain high levels of corrosive chemicals such as
salts).
3. Outdoor Coil (Sea Coast) — Moist air in ocean
locations can carry salt, which is corrosive to most
metal. Units that are located near the ocean require
frequent inspections and maintenance. These
inspections will determine the need to wash the unit
including the outdoor coil. Consult your installing
contractor for proper intervals/procedures for your
geographic area or service contract.
4. Outdoor unit fan motor is pre -lubricated and sealed.
No further lubrication is needed.
5. Visually inspect all connecting lines, joints and coils for
evidence of oil leaks.
6. Check all wiring for loose connections.
7. Check for correct voltage at unit (unit operating).

USING MANIFOLD GAUGL or=T
When checking the system charge, only use a manifold
gauge set that features low -loss and anti -blow -back
fittings.
Manifold gauge set used for HFC-410A refrigerant
systems must be capable of handling the higher system
operating pressures. The manifold gauges should be rated
for:
• High side - Pressure range of 0 - 800 pound -force per
square inch gauge (psig);
• Low side - Use with 30" vacuum to 250 psig with
dampened speed to 500 psig;
• Manifold gauge set hoses must be rated for use up to
800 psig of pressure with a 4000 psig burst rating.
FLARING PROCEDURE
1. Use a tube cutter to cut the copper line set to the
required length. Cut the lines approximately 12" to 20"
(305mm to 508mm) longer than the estimated
required length.
2. Use a pipe reamer or file to remove burrs at the end
of the line set.
BEFORE AFTER

3. Remove flare nut from outdoor unit and slide it onto the
copper tube.
4. Use a flaring tool to flare the end of the copper tube.
Figure 36. Flaring Tools
CONNECTING LINE SET TO OUTDOOR UNIT -
1. Apply a sealing cap or water -proof tape to prevent dust
or water from getting into the refrigerant piping before
it is connected.
2. Apply refrigerant lubricant to the matching surfaces of
the flared line set and union before connecting them
together (figure 37 -- A). This will reduce refrigerant
leaks.
3. Align the flared refrigerant line with valve connection,
then tighten the flare nut lightly at first to obtain a
smooth match (figure 37 - B).
Figure 37. Typical Line Set Connection to Outdoor
Unit
4. Tighten flare nuts. Do not over -tighten a flared joint.
Once snug, continue another half turn on each nut.
That should provide a gas -tight joint. You may also use
a torque wrench to tighten nuts using table 6
recommendations.

Leak Test and Evacuation
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant system will
have undesirable effects as indicated below:
• Pressure in the system rises
• Operating current _rises
• Cooling or heating efficiency drops
• Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze and block
capillary tubing (30 kBtu size only)
• Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the refrigeration
system
The line set between the indoor and outdoor units must be
leak tested and evacuated to remove any non-
condensables and moisture from the system.
LEAK,TEST
Use the following procedure to test for system leaks:
1. Connect the manifold gauge set and dry nitrogen gas
cylinder to the suction / vapor service port (see figure
40).
2. Open valve on nitrogen cylinder.
3. Pressurize the system to no more than 150 PSIG with
dry nitrogen.
4. Check for leaks using soapy water.
5. After the system is found to be free of leaks:
• Close valve on nitrogen cylinder.
• Relieve the nitrogen pressure by: loosening the
charge hose connector at the nitrogen cylinder.
• When the system pressure is reduced to normal,
disconnect the hose from the cylinder.
EVACUATION
1. Connect the manifold gauge set, micron gauge and
vacuum pump as shown in figure 40.
2. The operation time for evacuation varies with the line
set length and capacity of the pump. Allow the pump
to operate until the system has been evacuated down
to 300 microns. Allow the pump to continue running for
an additional 15 minutes.
3. Turn off the pump and leave the connection secured
to the 3-way service port. After five minutes, if the
system fails to hold 500 microns or less, check all
connections for tight fit and repeat the evacuation
procedure.
4. When the desired vacuum is reached, close the low
knob of the manifold valve and stop the vacuum pump.
Unit Start -Up

2. Verify that the manifold gauge set is connected as
illustrated in figure 40.
3. Open the 3-way service and 2-way shut off valves to
release the refrigerant charge contained in outdoor
unit into the system.
4. Replace the stem caps and tighten to the value listed
in table 6.
5. Check voltage supply at the outdoor unit terminal strip.
The voltage must be within the range listed on the
unit's nameplate. If not, do not start the equipment until
you have consulted with the power company and the
voltage condition has been corrected.
6. Refer to the included user guide to operate the system
using the provided remote control.
7. Visually check for binding of both indoor and outdoor
fans.
Adding Refrigerant for Longer Line Set
