2. Marking Locations: Use the provided template to mark locations for the lineset wall hole and the mini split bracket.
3. Mounting Bracket: Securely attach the mini split bracket to the wall using the provided screws. Ensure it is properly leveled.
4. Routing Lines: Run the lineset, drain hose, and electrical wiring through the wall opening.
5. Mounting Indoor Unit: Securely mount the mini split indoor unit onto the bracket.
6. Taping Linesets: Tape the drain hose and linesets together for a neat and organized installation.
7. Securing Electrical Wires: Use zip ties to secure the electrical wires around the taped linesets and drain hose.
8. Positioning Outdoor Condenser: Place the outdoor condenser unit in its designated location.
9. Accessing Ports: Remove the electrical port and valve covers on the outdoor unit.
10. Connecting Linesets: Connect the unit lineset to the condenser lineset and securely tighten it. Use a digital torque wrench if available to ensure proper tightening according to specifications.
11. Electrical Connections (Indoor Unit): Remove the electrical compartment cover on the indoor unit. Connect the ground wire (green) first, followed by each numbered wire (black, white, and yellow) to their corresponding numbered terminals on the electrical block.
12. Electrical Connections (Outdoor Unit): Ensure the outdoor outlet box is powered off. Connect the ground wire (green) first, then continue with the Leg (black) and Neutral (red) wires on the outdoor condenser.
13. Vacuuming the System: Ensure you have the appropriate vacuum equipment. Connect the hose from the outdoor condenser unit to the gauge, and correctly connect the hose from the vacuum to the gauge. Open the valves on the gauge and turn the vacuum on. Monitor the micron reading closely and close the valves once it reaches 350. Turn off the vacuum pump.
14. Restoring Power & Activation: Restore power to the outlet. Activate the mini split unit and set it to the lowest cooling setting. Allow a few minutes for the outdoor condenser fan to initiate.
15. Opening Valves: Use a service wrench to gradually open the High Side (top valve). Monitor the gauge closely as the readings will decrease into the negative range. After the High Side has been opened, quickly open the Low Side (bottom valve). Pay attention to the gauge as the numbers will spike, which is expected.
