WARNING
It is recommended that difference of piping length for pipes connected to the Indoor Unit is
minimized. Performance difference between Indoor Units may occur.
• * : Assume equivalent pipe length of Y branch to be 0.5m, that of header to be 1m, calculation purpose
• Indoor Unit should be installed at lower position than the header.

If available on site, it use this size. Otherwise it can't be increased.
WARNING
If overall equivalent pipe length is more than 90m from ODU to the longest IDU,
The diameter of the main pipe (Gas and Liquid pipes) must be increased as follow.
