They transport refrigerant between the evaporator inside and the condenser outside.<\/span>\r\n\r\nWhen you install a mini-split system like the popular MRCOOL brand, you'll likely end up with extra line set length. You\u2019ll need to be very careful when handling this excess tubing so it works correctly and doesn\u2019t get damaged. If the extra line set isn\u2019t installed correctly, your unit may have reduced efficiency, leaks or tangles of line.<\/span>\r\n\r\nLet\u2019s walk through the key steps for dealing with spare line set length on a MRCOOL or other mini-split AC system.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n\r\nIf you need any <\/span>replacement parts for your <\/b>air conditioner<\/b><\/a>, you can enter your <\/span>model number<\/b><\/a> at<\/span> AppliancePartsPros.com<\/b><\/a> to order them.
