REFRIGERANT PIPING DESIGN
• Connect the end of the pipe to the branch pipes.
• Outdoor unit refrigerant pipes are divided at the end to connect to each indoor unit.
• Use flare connections for the indoor units, and braze connections for the outdoor pipes and branch pipes.
• Use a hexagon wrench to open and close the valve.
