Outdoor Unit Y-Branches

Outdoor unit Y-branches can only be installed in a horizontal or vertical UP configuration.

The vertical DOWN configuration is not permitted.

When installed vertically, position the Y-branch at a level lower than the outdoor units it serves, so the straight-through leg is within ±3° of

plumb. When installed horizontally, the straight-through leg should be level, and the branch leg should be within ±5° of horizontal rotation.
Outdoor unit Y-branches must always be installed with the two port ends connected to the piping coming from the outdoor units, and the sin-

gle port end towards the indoor unit refrigerant piping system supporting the indoor units. Outdoor unit Y-branches are usually installed close

to the outdoor unit, leaving enough space for servicing and maintenance.

No Substitutions on Piping Components

Only LG supplied Y-branch and Header fittings can be used to join one pipe segment to two or more segments.

Third-party

or field-fabricated components such as tee’s, Y-fittings, couplings, headers, or other branch fittings are not permitted. The

only field-provided fittings allowed in a Multi V piping system are 45° and 90° long radius elbows and full port ball valves (if

applicable).
