Principles of a good Split I air conditioner installation

For installation of any equipment, we must initially prepare the materials, tools and equipment thus ensuring that the installation proceeds in an agile and organized manner. The first phase of the work is site preparation. At that moment, we must mark the position of the machines according to the project received. In the absence of a project, we must follow what is indicated in the equipment manual. We chose the best position for the evaporator and condenser units. For that, we must think about the passage way of the copper pipes to interconnect the units and how to install the drain. We check the availability of power points and analyze the physical structure available at the installation site to verify that it supports the weight of the units. All of this will position the internal and external units. The condenser unit (external) is connected to the evaporator unit (internal) through a copper pipe and an electric cable that guarantees the connection of the command and power circuits between the units. To connect the refrigerant circuit between the units, a copper pipe is used, whose diameter is defined by the capacity of the system, the length of the pipe and the unevenness between the units. Once the diameters, lengths and gaps are defined, we can install the pipes. First, we mark the path of the pipes and provide the necessary procedures for the passage of this pipe. Afterwards, we must carry out the preparation of the pipes, with welding procedures, tightness checking and thermal insulation. Welding procedures, line pressurization to check for leaks, internal cleaning and pipe insulation should preferably be carried out outside the installation site. In this way, the possibility of damage to the material, the environment to be acclimatized is reduced and the installer is more secure. Depending on the position of the evaporator and condenser units, siphons should be installed in the piping, which will have different purposes depending on the positions.
