Your unit was shipped with flare nuts on the fittings and service valves ? And the pre-made factory line set also has flare nuts on it ? So , you end up with an extra set of flare nuts , in case one is damaged ? I bought 2 rolls of copper tubing , each 50 ' long . Could not find a line set , locally , when I purchased the system & parts and pieces . I made the flares on the copper & insulated the lines . So , I had to use the flare nuts that came on the equipment . I looked last night and the biggest flare nut / tubing wrench in the harbor freight set is 22 mm . That was not quite large enough for the big flare nut . When you go back together , smear a little Nylog Blue on both sides of the flare and the end / face of the flare fitting . And the threads . Keep up the good work , you are getting there . :-) God bless Wyr |
