Generated explanation

The illustration shows an outdoor air-conditioning condensing unit tilted beside a house foundation. Refrigerant tubes connect the unit to the house, with a callout identifying potential stress on the tubes. The ground beside the foundation is identified as an area of backfilled soil, and the basement or crawl space is shown behind the foundation wall. A dashed vertical line marks the eave drip line near the tubing connection. An angular annotation beside the tilted unit reads "10° max."
