To provide drainage

NOTICE
In cold areas, do NOT use a drain socket, hose and caps
(large, small) with the outdoor unit. Take adequate
measures so that the evacuated condensate CANNOT
freeze.
NOTICE
If the drain holes of the outdoor unit are blocked up by a
mounting base or floor surface, place additional foot bases
≤30 mm under the outdoor unit's feet.
▪ Use a drain socket for drainage if necessary.

joints directly connecting the piping to the indoor units.
NOTICE
The piping and other pressure-containing parts shall be
suitable for refrigerant. Use phosphoric acid deoxidised
seamless copper for refrigerant piping.
▪ Foreign materials inside pipes (including oils for fabrication) must
be ≤30 mg/10 m.
