Capillary tube for a 1.0 HP split air-conditioning unit.
Product: Capillary tube assembly with copper strainer
Capacity: 1.0 HP split air-conditioning unit
Application: Outdoor unit metering device (refrigerant expansion/flow control)
Material: Copper tube + strainer
Role: Regulates refrigerant entering the evaporator for cooling efficiency
This is the standard part used across many non-inverter split AC units on 1.0 HP systems, particularly R22 refrigerant units.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
Match the Refrigerant Type: R22 (older), R410A or R32 (newer)/inverter units use different internal diameters/lengths.
Include Strainer: Helps avoid clogging.
Professional Installation Recommended: Replace capillary tube only with proper vacuuming and refrigerant charging to maintain performance.
