10. Merging pipe shall be done from above to the extent possible in order to avoid back flow to the system. 
11. The end of drainage pipe shall not directly contact ground.

Caution 
1. The drainage pipe diameter shall meet the draining requirement of indoor unit. 
2. The outlet air vent cannot be installed near the lifting pump of the indoor unit. 
3. Ensure condensation pump can start up and shut down normally by infusing water into the drainage pan of indoor unit and 
powering on. 
4. All joints shall be firm (particularly PVC pipe). 
5. The drainage pipe is not to be set horizontally or at an incline towards the unit, and suspenders shall be used to avoid sagging. 
6. Dimension of drainage pipe shall be not less than the connecting mouth size of the indoor units' drainage piping. 
7. Work out thermal insulation for drainage pipe to avoid condensation.. Thermal insulation processing shall be continued to the 
connecting part of indoor unit. 
8. Indoor units with different draining pattern shall not share the same concentrated drainage pipe. 
9. Discharge of condensation cannot interfere with the normal activities occupants.. 
10. As for long drainage piping, suspenders shall be used to ensure 1/100 slope without any sagging in the PVC pipe. 
※  The support spacing for horizontal piping is 0.8-1.0mm. If the spacing is too large, it shall produce sagging and air resistance, 
while air  resistance could seriously influence  the smoothness  of water  flow and  cause abnormal water levels. As  shown in 
following figure: 
 
 
5.2 Water storing elbow of drainage pipe 
For indoor units with high negative pressure at the outlet of drainage pan, the drainage pipe must be equipped 
with water storing elbow. 
Function of water storing elbow: 
When indoor unit is operating, prevents generating negative pressure from causing drainage difficulty or blow 
water from air outlet. 
Installation of water storing elbow: 
1. Install water storing elbow as shown in following figure: H shall be more than 50mm. 
2. Install one water storing elbow for each unit. 
3. When installing ensure future cleaning is convenient.
