Installation of the Condensate Pipe
1.
The condensate pipe should be installed at an angle of 5 - 10° to facilitate the drainage of condensate
water from the unit. The condensate pipe should be insulated to minimise condensation (See Figure
13).
2.
The unit is fitted with a condensate outlet on both the left and right sides of the unit, to aid in
installation. Only one drain should be used and the other should be blanked off, sealed and covered
with insulation to avoid water leakage.
3.
The right outlet is blanked off by default.
CAUTION
•
Condensate pipe joins should be checked and sealed to prevent water leakage.

Condensate Drain Pipe Design and Installation
1.
The diameter of the drain pipe should be larger or equal to that of the refrigerant pipe (PVC pipe,
outer diameter: 25mm, wall thickness ≥1.5mm).
2.
The drain pipe should be as short as possible.
3.
The drain pipe should be maintained at an angle of 1/50 ~1/100 to avoid water becoming trapped
or air pockets forming.
4. If sufficient angle cannot be provided, a lift pipe should be installed.
5.
A maximum distance of 1-1.5m should be kept between the hangers to avoid the drain hose sagging
(see Figure 14).
6. Do not use excessive force when connecting the drain pipe to the unit. The end of the pipe should
