Heat Insulation Of Refrigerant Piping - LG MULTI VS AARUN040LSS5 Installation Manual

Heat 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. For this part, use incombustible
materials for both insulation and covering.
