Default A/C tubing length maximum?

Generally 50 feet is the maximum without capacity loss. If you run 100 feet
of refrigeration line, expect 4% - 10% capacity reduction. [Even if you
increase the size of the suction line, there will still be some capacity
loss.] Check the manufacturer's spec. sheet.

Does anyone know of the maximum length for the tubing on a split 2 1/2
ton a/c system? Thinking of installing in a 925 sq ft. house, but
would like to mount the outside unit on the opposite side of the
house, as the airhandler.



One would need to know the brand and model number for the unit as they're
all a little different.

But, with a 925 sq ft home, I don't see any issues!
