Refrigerant Piping
CAUTION
The branching pipe must be installed
•
horizontally. An angle of more than 10° may
cause malfunction.
DO NOT install the connecting pipe until
•
both indoor and outdoor units have been
installed.
Insulate both the gas and liquid piping to
•
prevent water leakage.
Step 1: Cut pipes
When preparing refrigerant pipes, take extra care
to cut and flare them properly. This will ensure
efficient operation and minimize the need for future
maintenance.
1. Measure the distance between the indoor and
outdoor units.
2. Using a pipe cutter, cut the pipe a little longer
than the measured distance.
3. Make sure that the pipe is cut at a perfect 90°
angle.

DO NOT DEFORM PIPE
WHILE CUTTING
Be extra careful not to damage, dent, or
deform the pipe while cutting. This will
drastically reduce the heating e ciency
of the unit.

Parts you must purc hase
separately. Consult the dealer
about the proper pipe size of
the unit you purchased.
Step 2: Remove burrs.
Burrs can a ect the air-tight seal of refrigerant piping
connection. They must be completely removed.
1. Hold the pipe at a downward angle to prevent
burrs from falling into the pipe.
2. Using a reamer or deburring tool, remove all burrs
from the cut section of the pipe.

Step 3: Flare pipe ends
Proper aring is essential to achieve an airtight seal.
1. After removing burrs from cut pipe, seal the ends
with PVC tape to prevent foreign materials from
entering the pipe.
2. Sheath the pipe with insulating material.
3. Place are nuts on both ends of pipe. Make sure
they are facing in the right direction, because you
can't put them on or change their direction after
flaring.

to perform aring work.
