The equivalent lengths of all the fittings in a pipe run should be added together and the total added to the actual
pipe length in order to calculate the total equivalent length.
3.
Use the shortest possible route, avoiding sharp bends.
4.
Completely insulate the suction line, fully over the indoor unit drain tray.
USING SUCTION AND EXPANSION LINES
The expansion assembly must be removed from the indoor unit and connected to the outdoor unit allowing a pipe run
of up to 80m, including a maximum lift of 20m.
Fully insulate both the suction and expansion lines, including the expansion device: ensure the pipes are insulated
well over the drain tray at the indoor unit.
