3.2. Connecting pipes (Fig. 3-2)
• When commercially available copper pipes are used, wrap liquid and gas pipes
with commercially available insulation materials (heat-resistant to 100 °C or more,
thickness of 12 mm or more).
• The indoor parts of the drain pipe should be wrapped with polyethylene foam insu-
lation materials (specific gravity of 0.03, thickness of 9 mm or more).
• Apply thin layer of refrigerant oil to pipe and joint seating surface before tightening
flare nut.
• Use two wrenches to tighten piping connections.
• Use refrigerant piping insulation provided to insulate indoor unit connections. Insu-
late carefully.

C Apply refrigerating machine oil over the entire flare seat surface.
Installing procedures (Fig. 3-3)
1. Remove the flare nuts and caps from the indoor unit.
2. Flare-cut the liquid and gas pipes then apply refrigerating machine oil (to be lo-
cally procured) over the flare-cut seat surface.
3. Quickly connect the refrigerant piping.
∗ Remember to tighten the flare nuts with a double spanner.
4. Slide the supplied pipe cover 3 over the gas piping until it is pressed against the
sheet metal inside the unit.
5. Slide the provided pipe cover 3 over the liquid piping until it is pressed against
the sheet metal inside the unit.
6. Tighten the pipe cover 3 at the both ends (15 - 20 mm) with the supplied bands

3.3. Drainage piping work (Fig. 3-4)
• Use O. D. ø26 mm PVC TUBE for drain piping and provide 1/100 or more down-
ward slope.
• Be sure to connect the piping joints using adhesive of polyvinyl chloride family.
• Observe the figure for piping work.
• Use attached drain hose to change the pipe extraction direction.
