4-way Air Discharge Cassette Type
Connecting drain pipe
• Connect a hard socket (procured locally) to the hard
socket of the attached supplied flexible hose.
• Connect a drain pipe (procured locally) to the
connected hard socket.
REQUIREMENT
• Connect hard vinyl chloride pipes securely using an
adhesive for vinyl chloride to avoid water leakage.
• It takes some time until the adhesive is dried and
hardened (refer to the manual of the adhesive). Do
not apply stress to the joint with the drain pipe
during this time period.
Drain up
When a down-gradient cannot be secured for the
drainpipe, drain-up piping is possible.
• The height of the drain pipe must be 33.5" (850 mm)
or less from the bottom of the ceiling.
• Take the drain pipe out of the drain pipe joint with the
indoor unit in 11.8" (300 mm) or less, and bend up
the pipe vertically.
• Immediately after the pipe is bent up vertically, lay
the pipe making a down-gradient.
• Set downward grading immediately after raising up
vertically.

Check the draining

In the test run, check that water drain is properly
performed and water does not leak from the connecting
part of the pipes.
Be sure to check draining also when installed in
heating period.
Using a pitcher or hose, pour water (0.4 - 0.5 gal (1500
- 2000 cc)) into the discharge port before installation of
the ceiling panel.

If doing so, the drain pump motor operates.
• Test water drain while checking the operation sound
of the drain pump motor.
(If the operation sound changes from continuous
sound to intermittent sound, water is normally
drained.)
After the check, the drain pump motor runs,
connecting the float switch connector.
(In case of check by pulling out the float switch
connector, be sure to return the connector to the
original position.)
