Do not use the piping that have been used for R22.
<Reason>
A large amount of chlorine residues from conventional refrigerator oil and refrigerant found inside the existing
piping deposit sludge in the new piping system.
<Caution>
1. When replacing the air conditioner, also replace the piping.
2. Use refrigerant pipes made of C1220 phosphorus deoxidized copper categorized under H3000 (Copper and
Copper Alloy Seamless Pipes and Tubes), a standard set by JIS. Keep inner and outer surfaces of the pipes
clean and free of contaminants, such as sulfur, oxides, dust/dirt, shaving particles, oils, and moisture.
3. Contaminants inside the refrigerant piping may deteriorate the refrigerant oil.
