1 Wrap the enclosed large-sized pipe cover around the gas pipe, making sure that
the end of the pipe cover touches the side of the unit.
2 Wrap the enclosed small-sized pipe cover around the liquid pipe, making sure that
the end of the pipe cover touches the side of the unit.
3 Secure both ends of each pipe cover with the enclosed bands. (Attach the bands
20 mm, 25/32 inch from the ends of the pipe cover.)
4.3. For twin combination
Refer to the outdoor unit installation manual.
Some outdoor units cannot be used in a simultaneous twin system.
5.1. Drainage piping work (Fig. 5-1)
• The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam insula-
tion materials (specific gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm, 23/64 inch or more).
• Use VP25 (O.D. ø32 mm, 1-1/4 inch PVC TUBE) for drain piping and provide 1/100
or more downward slope.
• Be sure to connect the piping joints using a PVC type adhesive.
• Observe the figure for piping work.
• Use the included drain hose to change the extraction direction.
• When performing the drainage piping work, be sure to use the support metal holders.
If a load is applied to the drain socket that damages the hose or causes the hose
to become detached, water leakage may result.
