Marc;
You would have to use a "suction" filter drier. The external lineset on a
minisplit is different from the conventional systems. Rather than a liquid
line, the smaller line is a feed from the TXV in the outdoor unit. The
larger line is a return line [suction during cooling.]
Otherwise, you would have to locate the liquid line [in both heating and
cooling application] in the outdoor unit, cut and install a "bi-flow" liquid
line drier there. But if you had a severe burn out, I would recommend one
with high capacity carbon [usually designated HH].
What's the manufacturer suggest?
Good luck.
