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

    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) ?
