indoor unit to ensure that any condensate water is correctly
drained outside.
1) Insert the flexible hose to the drain hose port.

Attach the drain hose to the drain hose port with an
adhesive for PVC and tape to prevent water leaks, then
secure the hose with a clamp.(The clamp is not supplied
with the air conditioner.)
2) Install the drain hose so that its length can be as short as
possible. Internal diameter of the drain hose should be the
same or slightly bigger than the external diameter of the
drain hose port.

Check that the indoor unit is level with the ceiling by using a level.
Install air ventilation to drain condensate
water smoothly.
Do not give the hose and upward gradient
after the connection port.
This will cause water to flow backwards when
the unit is stopped, resulting in water leaks.

Must fit tightly against the
unit body without any gap.
If it is necessary to increase the height of the drain hose
somewhat, the portion directly after 12". If it is raised
higher than 20", there can be water leaks.

Do not apply force to the piping on the unit side when
connecting the drain hose. The hose should not be
allowed to hang loose from its connection to the unit.
Fasten the hose to a wall, frame or other support as
close to the unit as possible.
