Refrigerant piping installation
Thermal insulation of refrigerant piping
Be sure to give insulation work to refrigerant piping by covering liquid pipe and gas pipe separately with
enough thickness heat-resistant polyethylene, so that no gap is observed in the joint between indoor unit
and insulating material, and insulating materials themselves. When insulation work is insufficient, there is a
possibility of condensation drip, etc. Pay special attention to insulation work to ceiling plenum.

When filling a gap with mortar, cover the
penetration part with steel plate so that
the insulation material will not be caved in.
