I am wanting to move my AC unit from the back of my house to the side of my house. My basement is finished so all the lines will need to be ran outside.
A deck would be built above the lines so they will be covered.
The lines would come out of the house and go along the side of the for around 13’. They will then then 90 degrees and go another 5 feet or so.
I just had a tech come to my house and he had some concerns about the amount of joints needed and the possibility of them leaking in the future. I believe he said there would be around 9 joints and they would be brazed, not soldiered.
This is really the only option if we want to move the AC.
I’m hoping someone can give me some insight on this. Is this not worth doing? Is this something that will certainly give me problems down the line?
Any info you can give me would be appropriated.
