WARNING
When the any one (or both ) of below conditions are satisfied, the
diameter of main pipe (A) must be increased according to below
table.
- The equivalent length between outdoor unit and the farthest
indoor unit is 90 m or more.
(Liquid and Gas pipes are increased.)

• Indoor Unit should be installed at lower position than the header.
WARNING
Pipe length after header branching (a~f)
It is recommended that difference in length of the pipes
connected to the Indoor Units is minimized. Performance
difference between Indoor Units may occur.
