• Connect drain pipe B directly to drain piping connecting part (socket
side) of drain hose .
• Be sure to connect drain hose to the indoor unit side as shown in the
illustration on the right. Be sure to connect the drain hose connecting
part using adhesive of polyvinyl chloride family to prevent leakage.
• To bring up the drain exit, first arrange drain hose to go upward
vertically, and then provide 1/100 or more downward slope, as shown
in the illustration below.
• If the drain piping pass indoor, be sure to apply insulating material J
(Foamed polyethylene, specific gravity 0.03, thickness more than 3/8 in.
(10 mm)).
Connect drain hose connecting part using adhesive of polyvinyl chloride
family before installing the hose band.

• Apply insulating material J until drain piping connecting part, as shown
in the upper right illustration.
• Drain piping should form a downward slope (1/100 or more) to the outdoor
drain exit. Do not form trap or raise the pipe.
• Do not arrange the pipe horizontally for more than 65 ft. (20 m). When
the drain piping is too long, use support metal to prevent the drain pipe
from forming an up or down curve. Be sure not to install a air bleeder.
(Since drain lift-up mechanism is built-in, drain may blow out.)
• Odor trap for drain outlet is not necessary.
• For grouped piping, arrange piping so that the grouped piping is about
3-15/16 in. (100 mm) lower than the unit drain exit, as shown in the figure.
Use about a drain pipe (O.D. 1-1/2 in. (38 mm)) for grouped piping, and
arrange it so that it forms about 1/100 or more downward slope.
• Do not place drain piping directly into a place where ammonia gas or
sulfuric gas is formed, such as sewage tanks or septic tanks.
