Preparing The Copper Tubing; Connecting Copper Tubes; Connecting The Drain Hose - Daewoo DSB-181LH Owner's Manual

CONNECTING COPPER TUBES

To connect the copper tubes, follow the procedures below:
1. Remove the flare nut stoppers from the inside unit.
Determine the location of the copper tubing and
where the bends will be. Gently bend the copper tub-
ing, making sure to use big angles so no crimping will
occur. Try to do this on the first try as repeated bend-
ing may break or crimp the tubing.
NOTE:
When removing the flare nut stopper from the inside unit, confirm "Ping", sounds because the mixed gas is charged in
the inside unit,
3. Once a smooth match is made, tighten the flare nut
using a wrench. Be very careful not to strip the
threads or flare nut. Repeat this process for the small
and large tubing. When tightening the flare nut, use
another wrench to securely hold the coupler from
twisting and possibly damaging the tubing.
5. Perform a leak test on all copper tube connections. To
prevent heat loss and damage to walls from conden-
sation, the copper tube connections coming from the
wall must be insulated. Do this by wrapping foam rub-
ber or equivalent around the connection approximate-
ly 8mm thick so no copper tubing is exposed.

CONNECTING THE DRAIN HOSE

To connect the drain hose, follow the procedures below:
1. Connect the drain hose extension to the drain hose
coming from the indoor unit by loosing the clamp on
the extension using a phillips screwdriver, attaching
the hoses together and then tightening the clamp.
2. Remove the plastic stoppers from the tubing. Connect
the large and small copper tubing to the respective
extension and rotate the flare nut with your finger until
a smooth match is made. Make sure the copper
extension has foam rubber (insulation) on it.

4. Remove the flare nut stoppers from the outdoor unit's
valves. Connect the larger copper tubing to the larger
valve on the outdoor unit. Connect the smaller copper
tubing to the smaller valve on the outdoor unit.
NOTES:
• As with all wiring and hookups on this unit, make sure
the AC plug on the indoor unit is unplugged.
• Be very careful not to strip the threads or flare nut.
• When insulating the connections, use foam rubber or
equivalent.
2. Run the drain hose, slanted downward, outside. If the
drain pipe is exposed
indoors, make sure it is thor-
oughly insulated so conden-
sation does not ruin walls or
furniture or come in contact
with the AC connection or
extension. Also, do not
crease or form a trap in the
tubing.
