· Ensure that the refrigerant lines are free of leaks, acid and mineral oil. When replacing R-22 system with a new R-410A system, be sure the existing lines can endure R-410A pressure which is 50~70% higher than R-22 system. Use flush (e.g. Rx11) to remove the old mineral oil, sludge, moisture, acid and other contaminants out of the line set.

IMPORTANT: The manufacturer recommends installing only approved matched indoor and outdoor systems. All of the manufacturer's split systems are AHRI rated with TXV indoor units. Some of the benefits of installing approved matched indoor and outdoor split systems are maximum efficiency, optimum performance and the best overall system reliability.

5. Refrigerant Line Routing

Comply with National, State, and Local Codes when isolating line sets from joists, rafters, walls, or other structural elements. Take precautions to prevent noise within the building structure due to vibration transmission from the refrigerant lines. For Example:
· Use isolation type hangers when the refrigerant lines have to be fastened to floor joists or other framing. · Isolation hangers should also be used when refrigerant lines traverse stud spaces or enclosed ceilings. · Where the refrigerant lines pass through a wall or sill, it should be insulated and isolated. · Isolate the lines from all ductwork. · Minimize the number of 90º turns.

10.2 Control wiring
WARNING
Please refer to the wiring nameplate for the wiring method. Do not connect 24V AC to S1 - S2, as this will damage the system.

Connection method A:
This is the preferred method of control with the communicating control, indoor and outdoor unit. Refer to the wiring method of internal and external machine communication and wired controller as follows:

Connection method B:
To use a 24V thermostat, you need to refer to the following wiring:

24V must never be connected to S1 ­ S2. All wiring must be in compliance with the above scenarios. Incorrect wiring will cause irreversible damage to control.
24V connection Dip Switch setting as shown in the picture:

When using a 24V thermostat, please refer to the non-communicating wiring diagrams that follow:
Connection method C:
To use a 24V thermostat, you need to refer to the following wiring:
NOTICE
This equipment uses B functionality. This terminal is energized for heating functionality. Please ensure that thermostat configuration is set up for B functionality. Note: These methods are for use with a Ecoer outdoor unit and a third party indoor unit or cased coil and gas furnace.

NOTICE
The use of shielded communication or thermostat wire is not required, but is recommended where separation from high voltage conductors can not be maintained, or in areas with high electrical noise. The shield and drain conductor must be grounded at the outdoor unit and stripped back and taped at the indoor unit. Grounding at both ends results in an increase of noise transmitted onto the signal wires.

11. System Charge Adjustment
NOTE ON ADDING REFRIGERANT
NOTICE
DO NOT mix refrigerant types.
Some systems require additional charging depending on pipe lengths. The standard pipe length varies according to local regulations. For example, in North America, the standard pipe length is 7.5m (25'). In other areas, the standard pipe length is 5m (16`). The refrigerant should be charged from the service port on the outdoor unit's low pressure valve. The additional refrigerant to be charged can be calculated using the following formula:

Liquid Side Diameter

9.52(3/8'')
