INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Step 5: Connect the Drain Hose
By default, the drain hose is attached to the left-hand side of the unit, when facing the back of the unit. It can
also be attached to the right-hand side.
1. To ensure proper drainage, attach the drain hose on the same side of the unit as the refrigerant piping.
2. Attach the drain hose extension (purchased separately) to the end of the drain hose.
3. Wrap the connection point fi rmly with Tefl on tape to ensure a good seal and prevent leaks.
4. For the portion of the drain hose that will remain indoors, wrap it with foam pipe insulation to prevent
condensation.
5. Remove the air fi lter and pour a small amount of water into the drain pan to make sure that water fl ows
from the unit smoothly.
Note on Drain Hose Placement
• Do not kink the drain hose.
• Do not create a water trap.
• Do not put the end of the drain hose in water or a container that will collect water.
Note: To prevent unwanted leaks, plug the unused drain hole with the provided rubber plug.
