The flare nuts should be on the service valves.they should have copper bonnets in them to keep foreign matter out of the valves.

nope! just a plastic screw on cap (looks like a union) but not open just a simple plastic protective cap.
no probs i will get a set from reece / purple pig or such....

All the times we have installed splits that have the plastic nuts on the outdoor unit, there have always been the correct flare nuts in a plastic bag along with the other accessories (remote, screws, filters etc). Im guessing you havnt found this bag?

Strange, has i mentioned, we have always found them in one of the bags supplied. Unless there is another bag hiding (perhaps one with a drain plug/adaptor for the outdoor unit if its reverse cycle) ?
