The positive side for the elevation difference indicates that the outdoor unit is installed at a higher position than the indoor units.
The negative side indicates the opposite.
The capacity loss that is caused by the tubing length can be reduced by increasing the sizes of the discharge tubes and
suction tubes. Refer to Table 1 and make the appropriate changes. However be sure that the total length does not exceed the
maximum.
* The only sizes which can be increased are the LM (main tube with the largest diameter) gas tubes, and the changes are
limited to those shown in Table 1.
In addition, note that the additional refrigerant charge is determined only by the narrow-tube size.

* If the size of the discharge tubes and suction tubes (LM) has been increased, apply the correction coefficient from Table 1
and calculate the equivalent length of the LM section.
