Guidelines When Installing The Drain Piping - Daikin FCAG35AVEB Installation And Operation Manual

5.1.2 Guidelines when installing the drain
piping
Make sure condensation water can be evacuated properly. This
involves:
▪ General guidelines
▪ Connecting the drain piping to the indoor unit
▪ Checking for water leaks
General guidelines
▪ Pipe length. Keep drain piping as short as possible.
▪ Pipe size. Keep the pipe size equal to or greater than that of the
connecting pipe (vinyl pipe of 25 mm nominal diameter and
32 mm outer diameter).
▪ Slope. Make sure the drain piping slopes down (at least 1/100) to
prevent air from being trapped in the piping. Use hanging bars as
shown.

▪ Rising piping. If necessary to make the slope possible, you can
install rising piping.
▪ Drain hose inclination: 0~75 mm to avoid stress on the piping
and to avoid air bubbles.
▪ Rising piping: ≤300 mm from the unit, ≤675 mm perpendicular
to the unit.

▪ Condensation. Take measures against condensation. Insulate
the complete drain piping in the building.
▪ Combining drain pipes. You can combine drain pipes. Make
sure to use drain pipes and T-joints with a correct gauge for the
operating capacity of the units.

To connect the drain piping to the indoor unit
1 Push the drain hose as far as possible over the drain pipe
2 Tighten the metal clamp until the screw head is less than 4 mm
3 Check for water leaks (see
