York Heat Pump YHE36

Take care not to slug the compressor

The factory charge in the outdoor unit includes enough charge for the unit, 15 ft (4.6 m) of refrigerant piping, and the smallest indoor coil/air handler match-up

Some indoor coil/air handler matches may require additional charge

Compressor damage will occur if system is improperly charged

On new system installations, charge system per tabular data sheet for the matched coil and follow guidelines in this instruction

Dirt should not be allowed to accumulate on the outdoor coils or other parts in the air circuit. Clean as often as necessary to keep the unit clean. Use a brush, vacuum cleaner attachment, or other suitable means.

The outdoor fan motor bearings are permanently lubricated and do not require periodic oiling.

If the coil needs to be cleaned, it should be washed with Calgon Coilclean (mix one part Coilclean to seven parts water). Allow solution to remain on coil for 30 minutes before rinsing with clean water. Solution should not be permitted to come in contact with painted surfaces.

Refer to the furnace or air handler instructions for filter and blower motor maintenance.

The indoor coil and drain pan should be inspected and cleaned regularly to prevent odors and assure proper drainage.

CAUTION: It is unlawful to knowingly vent, release or discharge refrigerant into the open air during repair, service, maintenance or the final disposal of this unit.
