Insulate the refrigerant pipe
Make sure to insulate the refrigerant pipe, branch joint, distribution header, and the connection part of the pipes.
If you insulate the pipes, condensed water will not fall from the pipes.
Check if there are any cracks on the insulation at the bent part of the pipe.

Insulating pipes
The insulation of the gas and liquid pipes can be in contact
with each other but they should not press excessively against
each other.
When the gas side and liquid side pipes are contacting each
other, increase the thickness of the insulation by one grade.

moisture from entering.
Bind the refrigerant pipe with insulation tape if it
is exposed to outside sunlight. (When binding the
pipe with finishing tape, be careful not to reduce the
thickness of the insulation.)
Install the refrigerant pipe respecting that the
insulation does not get thinner on the bent part or
hanger of pipe.
When the thickness of insulation is reduced, reinforce
the reduced thickness with additional insulation.
