Note on Pipe Length
The length of refrigerant piping will aect the performance and energy efficiency of the unit. Nominal
efficiency is tested on units with a pipe length of 16.5 ft (5 m).
Refer to the table below for specifications on the maximum length and drop height of piping.

Step 1: Cut pipe
When preparing refrigerant pipes, take extra care
to cut and flare them properly. This will ensure
efficient 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 perfect 90°
angle. Refer to Fig. 5.1 for bad cut examples.
