Refrigerant Piping Insulation - LG Multi V ARUN053GF2 Installation Manual

applying Insulation to y-Branch and Header fittings
Check the fit of the insulation jacket provided with the LG Y-branch and Header kits after all pipes are brazed to fittings. Mark all pipes at the
point where the insulation jacket ends. Remove the jacket. Install field-supplied insulation on the pipe segments first, and then install the LG
provided insulation plugs on the ends of all unused Header ports. Apply the clam-shell insulation on jackets to Y-branch and Header fittings
last. Peel the adhesive glue protector slip from the insulation jacket and install the clam-shell jacket over the fitting.

additional Insulation for y-Branches and Headers May be required in Humid environments.
If the system has been operating for a long time in a high humidity environment (dew point temperature: more than 73°F), condensate is likely
to form. If this happens, install 3/8 inch thick ethylene propylene diene methylene (EPDM) insulation that is plenum-rated with a heat-resis-
tance factor of more than 248°F.
