Always use φ25.4mm or φ28.58mm gas pipes when the length of the main "L" exceeds 35m.
If the φ22.22mm pipes are used in an installation having over 35m piping, they can cause performance degradation and/or water leaks from an indoor unit.
Triple type B is not allowed to use in case of 250V.
Note (1) Install the indoor units so that L + L1 becomes the longest one-way pipe.
Keep the pipe length difference between L1 and (La + L2) or (La + L3) within 10m.
Note (2) Connect the unit that is the maximum capacity with L1.

The protrusion of an anchor bolt on the front side must be kept within 15 mm.
Securely install the unit so that it does not fall over during earthquakes or strong winds, etc.
Refer to the left illustrations for information regarding concrete foundations.
Install the unit in a level area. (With a gradient of 5 mm or less.)
Improper installation can result in a compressor failure, broken piping within the unit and abnormal noise generation.
