  1. I will try to move it away from the wall a little bit more. Yes. The clearance is the same for the 13ACX model as shown in the installation instructions. Thank you and thank you all for your comments. I am grateful for your helps. MC
  2. I have measured and the clearance is 5 and 1/2 inches to the wall. I hope this will not be a major issue. What type of problems may occur when having the AC unit too close to the wall? Thanks!
  3. Thank you all for your comments. Just to add some additional information. I just read through the AC installation guide which I should have read long before posting on this forum. Here are some interesting info: 1) There is an installation diagram showing the copper line installed with two 90-degree bents. This apparently reduce the vibration for some install. Based on that, I think having some lesser bents such as mine will not likely cause any problems. 2) For my install, the liquid line filter drier was installed in the inside. As per the installation manual, the filter must be installed as not installing it will void the warranty. 3) Concerning the brackets the AC is put on, i guess it is a necessity in Canada as i don't think it would be good for the unit to be covered in snow for 4 months every year. And, just in case someone is curious about the model of the AC, it is a Lennox 13ACX. Thanks for all your inputs so far.
  4. Hi All, Just want to consult you on an AC install. We just got our central AC installed last week (by a reputable - one of the supposedly best in our area) and, one day after our install, my neighbor had the same model installed by another company. The neighbor told me that his installer felt that my AC install was a sloppy one and that could lead in the loss or reduction of efficiency. Basically, he showed me that the copper line on our AC installation is curved in several areas and not straight as his. This, according to his installer, could cause problems. I have taken pictures The first one is our install with the curved copper line. The second one is our neighbor's install where the copper line is straight. I am not sure how accurate is the assessment of our neighbor's installer on our install. What is your take on this? If this is problematic, what type of problem can result from this? Many Thanks! MC
