PIPING INSTALLATION

Refrigerant Piping

Drill Hole in Wall
If indoor unit refrigerant piping is going to exit from the rear:
1. It is recommended that the refrigerant pipe flare connectors extend through the wall
to the outside. In some situations field-fabricated piping extensions will be required to
extend the indoor unit refrigerant flare connections to the outside of the wall.
2. Use mounting bracket diagrams and dimensions to find and mark the proper location
for the wall hole.
If refrigerant piping is going through the right or left side of front panel:
Carefully cut hole in the side of the front panel for piping to enter indoor unit as shown below.
Find and mark the proper location for the wall hole. Use table below to determine recommended
wall hole size for your unit size.

3. Cut the wall hole with a 5° to 10° downward slant to the outdoors.
4. Insert a wall sleeve into hole to prevent damage to refrigerant pipes, insulation,
condensate drain hose and wiring.
5. Proper weather proofing of the wall
surface and wall sleeve is essential to
assure a trouble-free installation. Apply
sealant, caulking or equivalent weather
proofing material around the perimeter
of the wall sleeve (interior & exterior) to
eliminate outdoor air and water leaks
into the living space.
NOTE: Expandable foam insulation may be added to fill large
wall gaps. Apply per manufacturer's instructions.
