▪ Downstream capacity for D=[capacity index of unit 1]+[capacity
index of unit 2]
E: Piping between refrigerant branch kit or BS unit
and indoor unit
For heat pump and heat recovery system
Pipe size for direct connection to indoor unit must be the same as
the connection size of the indoor unit.

To select refrigerant branch kits
Refrigerant refnets
For piping example, refer to
"14.1.2 To select the piping size"
▪ When using refnet joints at the first branch counted from the
outdoor unit side, choose from the following table in accordance
with the capacity of the outdoor unit (example: refnet joint a).
