Drain Piping - LG ARNU09GTSA4 Installation Manual

Drain Piping

• Drain piping must have down-slope (1/50 to
1/100): be sure not to provide up-and-down slope
to prevent reversal flow.
• During drain piping connection, be careful not to
exert extra force on the drain port on the indoor
unit.
• The outside diameter of the drain connection on
the indoor unit is 32 mm.
Piping material: Polyvinyl chloride pipe VP-25
and pipe fittings
• Be sure to install heat insulation on the drain
piping.
Heat insulation material: Polyethylene foam
with thickness more than 8 mm.
