Step 4: Connect pipes
Connect the copper pipes to the indoor unit first,
then connect it to the outdoor unit. You should
first connect the low-pressure pipe, then the
high-pressure pipe.
1. When connecting the flare nuts, apply a thin
coat of refrigeration oil to the flared ends of
the pipes.
2. Align the center of the two pipes that you will
connect.

3. Tighten the flare nut as tightly as possible
by hand.
4. Using a spanner, grip the nut on the unit
tubing.
5. While firmly gripping the nut, use a torque
wrench to tighten the flare nut according to
the torque values in above table.
NOTE: Use both a spanner and a torque
wrench when connecting or disconnecting
pipes to/from the unit.
CAUTION
• Ensure to wrap insulation around the piping.
Direct contact with the bare piping may
result in burns or frostbite.
• Make sure the pipe is properly connected.
