Wind insulating tape around the pipes and drain hose
avoiding compressing the insulation too much.
Indoor unit
Insulation cover pipe
Insulation pipe
Be sure to overlap the insulation.
CAUTION
•
Be sure to wrap insulation tightly without any gaps.
3
Finish wrapping insulating tape around the rest of the
pipes leading to the outdoor unit.
4
The pipes and electrical cables connecting the indoor
unit with the outdoor unit must be fixed to the wall with
suitable ducts.
CAUTION
•
Make sure that all refrigerant connection must be
accessible for easy maintenance and detachment.
•
Install the insulation not to get wider and use the
adhesives on the connection part of it to prevent
moisture from entering.
•
Wind the refrigerant pipe with insulation tape if it is
exposed to outside sunlight.
•
Install the refrigerant pipe respecting that the
insulation does not get thinner on the bent part or
hanger of pipe.
•
Add the additional insulation if the insulation plate
gets thinner.

Select the insulation of the refrigerant pipe.
•
Insulate the gas side and liquid side pipe, noting the
insulation thickness that must differ according to the
pipe size.
•
Standard: Less than an indoor temperature of 30°C,
with humidity at 85%. If installing in a high humidity
environment, use one grade thicker insulator by
referring to the table below. If installing in an
unfavourable environment, use thicker one.
•
The heat-resistance temperature of the insulator must
be more than 120°C.

When installing insulation in the places and
conditions below, use the same insulation that is used
for high humidity conditions.
<Geological condition>
High humidity locations such as shorelines, hot springs,
lake or riversides, and ridges (when part of the building is
covered by earth and sand)
<Operation purpose condition>
Restaurant ceiling, sauna, swimming pool etc.
<Building construction condition>
Ceilings frequently exposed to moisture and cooling are
not covered. For example, pipes installed at a corridor of a
dormitory and studio or near an exit that opens and closes
frequently.
Places (where the pipes are installed) that are highly humid
due to a lack of ventilation.
