4.1. Drainage piping work
• Use O.D. ø26 PVC TUBE for drain piping and provide 1/100 or more downward
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. (Fig. 4-1)

In cases of upward drainage
• The largest dimension possible for the vertical section at
B
is 60 cm from the lower
surface of the ceiling. Make this vertical section as short as possible.
Water drainage check
1. Fill the drainage pan with about 0.5 liters of water. (Don’t pour water directly into
the drain pump.)
2. Make a test run of the unit (in Cooling mode).
3. Check for water drainage at the transparent check window and the outlet of the
drainage pipe.
4. Stop the test run. (Don’t forget to turn off the power.) (Fig. 4-3)

3.3. Refrigerant piping
1) Indoor unit
Installing procedures (Fig. 3-2)
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
