Also allow for proper maintenance space.

The barrier should be constructed of materials which will blend in with the building design.

3. Avoid locating the unit where condensation and freezing of deli'ost vapor may annoy the customer.

For instance, installing the unit under a bedroom, kitchen, or picture window may be annoying to the customer since condensate and fog will occur during the defrost cycle.

4. Avoid locating the unit under the eaves or other overhead structures as sizeable icicles may form and the unit may be damaged by these falling icicles.

J.

DEFROSTCONTROL

The demand defrost control measures heat pump outdoor ambient temperature with a sensor located outside the outdoor coil.

A second sensor located on the outdoor coil is used to measure the coil temperature.

The difference between the ambient and the colder coil temperature is the ditI_rence or delta-T measuremerit.

This delta-T measurement is representative of the operating state and relative capacity of the heat pump system.

By measuring the change in delta-T, we can determine the need for defi'ost.

The coil sensor also serves to sense outdoor coil temperature for termination of the defi'ost cycle.

FAULT DETECTION

A fault condition is indicated by the flashing light on the defl'ost control inside the heat pump control box.

In normal operation, the defl'ost control light will flash once each second. If the light is flashing more than once per second or notat-all, refer to the service manual for that unit.

SYSTEM OPERATIONAL CHECK

IMPORTANT: To prevent compressor damage which may result from the presence of LIQUID refrigerant in the crankcase, these procedures should be followed at initial Start-Up and at anytime the power has been off for 12 hours or more.

1. Before proceeding with this "Operational Check," go to "Compressor Sump Heat Section" of this instruction to determine the time compressor heat has been "ON," and make entry d the designated lines, in Step 2.

2. Start-Up Time

Hours

Power Applied Time

Minutes.

A.M./P.M.

3.

If Steps 1 and 2 cannot be used, then place thermostat's system switch in the "OFF" position and apply power by closing system disconnect switch.

This energizes compressor heat and evaporates the liquid in the crankcase.

TO EVAPORATE LIQUID ALLOW AT LEAST ONE-HALF HOUR PER POUND (HCFC-22), AS

SHOWN ON UNIT NAMEPLATE.

OPERATING PRESSURES: After the unit has operated in the cooling mode for a short period of time, install pressure gauges on the gauge ports of the discharge and suction line valves. Check the suction and discharge pressures and compare them to the normal operating pressures provided in the unit's Service Facts.

NOTE: Use the pressures from Service Facts to determine the unit refrigerant charge.

To charge the system accurately, use superheat charging, or pressures depending on flow control.

4.

Except as required for safety while servicing: DO NOT OPEN SYSTEM DISCONNECT SWITCH.

Frequently Answers and Questions

What is the maximum length of refrigerant lines allowed?
The maximum length of refrigerant lines from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit should not exceed sixty (60) feet.
How do I prevent noise transmission from the refrigerant lines to the building structure?
Use isolation type hangers when fastening the lines to floor joists, stud spaces, enclosed ceilings, or when running lines through walls or sills. Also, isolate the lines from all ductwork.
Why is it important to evacuate the refrigerant lines and indoor coil before opening the gas and liquid line valves?
Evacuation ensures that the system is free of air and moisture, which can damage the compressor and reduce the efficiency of the system.
