hello fellow techs , for me its almost time to work on Air Conditioners. I had a question about charging R410a systems , on ACs that have Txv or non txv how do you find out your required subcooling, I have PT charts and those slidding calculators but I can never figure out what is my specific Subcooling temp, I know that subcooling is the Highside saturated temp minus the liquid line temp. on the lennox models XC15 or higher or in general any Condensor it shows a chart on the panel and I do not understand how to figure out the required subcooling

can you please help me out ? thanks

Here's the Lennox XC15 manual

You can use the approach method on pg 14 (TXV systems only). The subcooling method is on pg 15. Just use the Table 6 chart in the manual.
