Insulating refrigerant pipe or Y-joint
X
You must check if there is a gas leak before completing all the installation process. After you check that the gas does not
leak, you must insulate the pipe and hose.
X
Use EPDM insulation which meets the following condition.

Selecting the insulation of refrigerant pipe
X
Insulate the gas pipe and liquid pipe by referring to the thickness of insulator for each pipe size.
X
The standard condition is 30°C(86°F), with humidity less than 85%. In the conditions of high humidity, use one grade
thicker.
