Selecting Field-Supplied Copper Piping
Always follow local codes when selecting and installing copper pipe and piping system components.
Approved piping for use with LG Single Zone products will be marked “R410 RATED” along the length of the pipe. Piping wall thickness must
meet local code requirements and be approved for a maximum operating pressure of 551 psi. When bending piping, try to keep the number
of bends to a minimum, and use the largest radii possible to reduce the equivalent length of installed piping; also, bending radii greater than
ten (10) piping diameters can minimize pressure drop. Be sure no traps or sags are present.
For Single Zone Systems
LG prefers the use of ACR copper piping rated at the system working pressure was used.
Always properly support the piping as per the instructions in the Pipe Supports section.

• Commercially available piping often contains dust and other materials. Always blow it clean with a dry inert gas.
• Prevent dust, water or other contaminants from entering the piping during installation.
