Connecting Pipes to the Indoor Unit

Preparation of Piping
Main cause of gas leakage is defect in flaring
work. Carry out correct flaring work in the fol-
lowing procedure.
1. Cut the pipes and the cable.
• Use the accessory piping kit or the pipes
purchased locally.
• Measure the distance between the indoor
and the outdoor unit.
• Cut the pipes a little longer than measured
distance.
• Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe
length.
2. Burrs removal
• Completely remove all burrs from the cut
cross section of pipe/tube.
• Put the end of the copper tube/pipe to down-
ward direction as you remove burrs in order to
avoid to let burrs drop in the tubing.
3. Putting nut on
• Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and
outdoor units, than put them on pipe/tube
having completed burr removal.
(Not possible to put them on after flaring work)
4. Flaring work
• Carry out flaring work using dedicated flar-
ing tool for R-410A as shown below.
