1. Site Inspection:

    • A qualified technician inspects the location where the indoor and outdoor units will be installed.
    • Ensures there is proper airflow and ventilation and that the space is free of obstacles.
    • Verifies the distance between the indoor and outdoor units and confirms that it meets manufacturer specifications.
    • Checks the power supply and makes sure the electrical connection is safe and meets local standards.
  2. Indoor Unit Installation:

    • Mounting the indoor unit on a wall using a bracket, ensuring it is level and secure.
    • Drilling holes for the refrigerant pipe, drainage pipe, and electrical wires.
    • Installing a drainage system (PVC pipe) for condensation water.
    • Connecting the refrigerant line (copper piping) from the outdoor unit to the indoor unit.
    • Connecting electrical wiring from the indoor unit to the power supply.
    • Checking the indoor unit’s position to ensure proper air distribution.
  3. Outdoor Unit Installation:

    • Mounting the outdoor unit on a flat surface or bracket (on the ground, wall, or roof, depending on the location).
    • Ensuring the unit is level and positioned to avoid obstruction to airflow.
    • Connecting the refrigerant piping from the indoor unit to the outdoor unit.
    • Installing electrical connections to the outdoor unit.
    • Ensuring proper clearance around the outdoor unit for optimal performance.
  4. Refrigerant Piping:

    • Cutting and bending the copper pipes to the required lengths and connecting them between the indoor and outdoor units.
    • Insulating the refrigerant piping to prevent energy loss.
    • Tightening the connections to avoid leaks and ensuring proper sealing.
  5. Electrical Connections:

    • Connecting the power supply to the indoor and outdoor units.
    • Ensuring proper grounding for safety.
    • Checking the electrical connections with a multimeter to ensure no short circuits.
  6. Vacuuming and Leak Testing:

    • Using a vacuum pump to remove air and moisture from the refrigerant lines.
    • Conducting a leak test by pressurizing the system to ensure there are no leaks in the pipes or connections.
    • Once the leak test is successful, the refrigerant is charged into the system.
  7. System Startup and Testing:

    • Starting the system and checking the cooling performance.
    • Verifying that the system is cooling effectively and there is no abnormal noise or vibration.
    • Ensuring the thermostat and remote control are functioning properly.
    • Checking for any unusual odors or issues in the system.
  8. Final Inspection and Clean-up:

    • Making sure all units are properly mounted and aligned.
    • Cleaning the area of any debris or dust from the installation process.
    • Providing the customer with a manual and instructions on how to operate and maintain the AC unit.

Materials Used in Split AC Installation:

  1. Indoor Unit:

    • Wall-mounted split air conditioner unit (includes evaporator coil, fan, and air filter).
    • Mounting bracket for the indoor unit.
    • Insulated refrigerant pipes (copper tubing).
    • Condensate drainage pipe (usually PVC or flexible tubing).
    • Electrical wiring (for power supply and controls).
    • Remote control for the air conditioner.
    • Screws, anchors, and other hardware for mounting.
  2. Outdoor Unit:

    • Outdoor condenser unit (includes compressor, condenser coil, and fan).
    • Mounting bracket or stand (for wall, ground, or roof mounting).
    • Insulated refrigerant pipes (copper tubing).
    • Electrical wiring for the outdoor unit.
    • Grounding cable for safety.
    • Screws, bolts, and other hardware for securing the unit.
  3. Refrigerant System Components:

    • Copper refrigerant pipes (for carrying refrigerant between indoor and outdoor units).
    • Refrigerant gas (R-22, R-410A, or R-32, depending on the model).
    • Insulation material (for refrigerant pipes).
    • Pipe connectors and fittings (e.g., flare nuts, elbows, T-joints).
    • Valve (for charging and servicing the refrigerant).
  4. Tools and Equipment:

    • Vacuum pump (for evacuating air and moisture from the refrigerant lines).
    • Pressure gauge and manifold (for leak testing and refrigerant charging).
    • Pipe cutter and bender (for refrigerant piping).
    • Drill with bits (for making holes in the wall for pipes).
    • Wrench and screwdrivers (for tightening connections).
    • Level (to ensure proper installation alignment).
    • Multimeter (for electrical testing).
  5. Miscellaneous:

    • PVC piping and fittings (for condensate drainage).
    • Electrical junction box and fuses (for electrical connections).
    • Silicone sealant or weatherproof tape (for sealing holes and preventing leaks).
    • Insulation material for pipes (such as rubber or foam).

Proper installation ensures efficient operation, longevity, and safety of the split air conditioning system.
