3-5. Installing the Drain Pipe
3-5-1.   Before Performing the Installation Drain Piping
(1)  Limitations of Raising the Drain Pipe Connection
 
 CAUTION
 ●
The drain pipe can be raised to a maximum 
height of 850 mm from the bottom of the ceiling. 
Do not attempt to raise it higher than 850 mm. 
Doing so will result in water leakage.
(2)  Limitations of Drain Pipe Connection
 CAUTION
 ●
Do not install the drain pipe with an upward 
gradient from the drain port connection. This will 
cause the drain water to flow backward and leak 
when the unit is not operating. 
 ●
Do not install an air bleeder as this may cause 
water to spray from the drain pipe outlet. 
 ●
Do not provide U-trap or bell-shaped trap in the 
middle of the drain pipe. Doing so will cause 
abnormal sound. 
 ●
Make sure the drain pipe has a downward 
gradient (1/100 or more; downward from drain 
port connection). 
(3)  Limitations of Drain Hose Connection
 CAUTION
 ●
Do not bend the supplied drain hose 90° or 
more. 
Bend it less than 45°.
 ●
Do not make a trap in the middle of the 
supplied drain hose. Doing so will cause 
abnormal sound.
