Installing New Indoor Metering Device This outdoor unit is designed for use in HFC−410A systems that use a check / expansion valve metering device (purchased separately) at the indoor coil. See the Lennox XP13 Engineering Handbook for approved check / expansion valve kit match−ups. The check / expansion valve device can be installed either internal or external to the indoor coil. In applications where an uncased coil is being installed in a field−provided plenum, install the check / expansion v

Leak Test Line Set and Indoor Coil IMPORTANT Leak detector must be capable of sensing HFC refrigerant. CONNECT GAUGE SET A Connect an HFC−410A manifold gauge set high pressure hose to the LOW HIGH vapor valve service port. NOTE Normally, the high pressure hose is connected to the liquid MANIFOLD GAUGE SET line port. However, connecting it to the vapor port better protects the manifold gauge set from high pressure damage. B With both manifold valves closed, connect the cylinder of HFC−410A ref

Evacuating Line Set and Indoor Coil Evacuating the system of non−condensables is critical for proper operation of the unit. Non−condensables are defined as any gas that will not condense under temperatures and pressures present during operation of an air conditioning system. Non−condensables and water suction combine with refrigerant to produce substances that corrode copper piping and compressor parts. CONNECT GAUGE SET LOW HIGH NOTE Remove cores from service valves (if not already done). 1
