Refrigerant Piping Connection.
Note on Pipe Length
The lenght of refrigerant piping will aect the performance and energy eciency of the
unit. Nominal eciency is tested on units with a pipe length of 16.5ft. Refer to the table
below for specications on the maximun length and drop height of piping.
Step 1: Cut pipes
When preparing refrigerant pipes, take
extra care to cut and are them properly.
This will ensure ecient operation and
minimize the need for future maintenance.
1. Measure the distance between the
indoor and outdoor units.
2. Using a pipe cutter, cut the pipe a little
longer than the measured distance.
3. Make sure that the pipe is cut at a per-
fect 90 angle.
Refer to Fig. 5.1 for bad cut examples.
