WARNING
• It is recommended that difference of piping length for pipes connected to the Indoor Unit is mini-
mized. Performance difference between Indoor Units may occur.
• 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 90m or more
(Liquid and Gas pipes are increased)
