REFRIGERANT PIPING CONNECTIONS
Connection Limitations
Single Zone Art Cool Mirror systems consist of one outdoor unit and one indoor unit.
One of the most critical elements of a single zone system is the refrigerant piping.
Table 14 lists pipe length limits that must be followed in the design of a Single Zone
Art Cool Mirror refrigerant pipe system. Refer to Figure 27 for maximum length and
elevation of piping.

Installation
Single Zone Art Cool Mirror systems are one-to-one systems. There is a direct piping connection between the outdoor unit and the indoor
unit. Figure 30 Illustrates the basic pipe connections between the outdoor and indoor unit. Refer back to this illustration as you proceed with
pipe connections. This illustration shows the indoor unit being installed at a higher position than the outdoor unit, however, should you install
the outdoor unit at a higher position than the indoor unit, the basic pipe connections should be the same.
Refer back to the table within the
“Connection Limitations”
section (above) for specific length limitations in conjunction with outdoor unit
and indoor unit positioning.

• As you proceed with the piping connections be sure to adhere to pipe support
spacing lengths as shown in Figure 31 below. Refer back to “Pipe Supports” sec-
tion for in-depth information regarding using long radius elbows, clamps and pipe
supporting materials.
• Always adhere to state and local codes regarding piping and accurate support
spacing along the outdoor pipe line.
