TUBING INSTALLATION

The compressor oil is constantly pumped through the refrigerant lines in normal operation of an air conditioning system. To ensure proper lubrication of the compressor by avoiding oil accumulation at undesirable points in the system, follow the guidelines listed below:

1.No traps in the suction line are necessary if the outdoor condensing unit is level with the indoor evaporator coil or the indoor evaporator coil is 4 feet or less lower then the outdoor condensing unit. Any horizontal runs of suction line should have minimum 1/2" pitch for every 10 feet of line towards the outdoor condensing unit. See Figure F below.
