I picked up this outdoor unit and the matching indoor coil the other day. It was dirt cheap and used one summer in a vacation home. This is my experimental unit to use the propane.

It says on the label 5669G/ 200 oz. R-22. Would that be just for the outdoor unit and not including the line set and indoor unit? 5669 g (200 oz.) = 12.4980 lb.

A 5 gallon cylinger/tank can hold 20 lbs. of propane and 4.7 gallons. I also read somewhere that you would charge them by monitoring the superheat to determine the correct amount of refridgerant. Going to have to read more about that later.

It makes sense about replacing the open relays on the outdoor unit. I wonder about the fan motor?
