4.2. Indoor unit (Fig. 4-1)
• When commercially available copper pipes are used, wrap liquid and gas pipes
with commercially available insulation materials (heat-resistant to 100 °C or more,
thickness of 12 mm or more).
• The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam insu-
lation materials (specific gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm or more).
• Apply thin layer of refrigerant oil to pipe and joint seating surface before tightening
flare nut.
• Use two wrenches to tighten piping connections.
• Use leak detector or soapy water to check for gas leaks after connections are
completed.
• Use refrigerant piping insulation provided to insulate indoor unit connections. Insu-
late carefully following shown below.
• Use correct flare nuts meeting the pipe size of the outdoor unit.
