1-12. Installing Distribution Joint
CAUTION
Pay special attention to any location, such as a basement, etc., where leaking refrigerant can
accumulate, since refrigerant gas is heavier than air.
(1) Refer to “HOW TO ATTACH DISTRIBUTION JOINT” enclosed with the optional distribution joint kit (CZ-P900PH1U,
CZ-P224BH1U, CZ-P680BH1U, CZ-P1350BH1U).
● When connecting a branch tubing to the indoor unit directly, it is necessary for each branch tubing to install at a positive angle
with respect to horizontal in order to prevent accumulation of refrigerant oil in stopped units. (See the below chart.)

● Be sure to solidly weld shut the T-joint end (marked by X in
the figure). In addition, pay attention to the insertion depth
of each connected tube so that the flow of refrigerant within
the T-joint is not impeded.
Be sure to use a commercial available T-joint.
● When using the header joint system, do not make further
branches in the tubing.
● Do not use the header joint system on the outdoor unit
side.
