STEP 8: WRAPPING THE CABLES
Before passing the piping, drain pipe, and the signal cable through the wall hole, you must bundle
them together to save space, protect them, and insulate them.
1. Bundle the drain pipe, refrigerant pipes, and signal cable as shown below:
Indoor Unit
Space behind unit
Refrigerant piping
Drain pipe
Signal wire
Insulation tape
NOTE
The drain pipe MUST be at the bottom of the bundle. Putting the drain pipe at the top of the
bundle can cause the drain pan to overflow, which can lead to fire or water damage.
NOTE
DO NOT intertwine the signal cable with any of the other wires while bundling these items
together.
NOTE
When wrapping the bundle, keep the ends of the piping unwrapped. You need to access
them to test for leaks at the end of the installation process (refer to Electrical and Gas Leak
Checks section of this manual).
2. Using adhesive vinyl tape, attach the drain pipe to the underside of the refrigerant pipes.
3. Using insulation tape, wrap the signal wire, refrigerant pipes, and drain pipe tightly together.
Double-check that all items are bundled.
STEP 9: MOUNT INDOOR UNIT
If you installed new connective piping to the outdoor unit, do the following:
1. If you have already passed the refrigerant piping through the hole in the wall, proceed to #4.
2. Double-check that the ends of the refrigerant pipes are sealed to prevent dirt or foreign materials
from entering the pipes.
3. Slowly pass the wrapped bundle of refrigerant pipes, drain pipe, and signal wire through the hole
in the wall.
STEP 7: PREPARE REFRIGERANT PIPING
1. If pre-existing refrigerant piping is already embedded in the wall, skip to Step 9. Then, begin the
outdoor unit installation. Refer to the Refrigerant Piping Connections section of the outdoor unit's
installation manual for detailed instructions.
2. If there is no pre-existing piping, connect the indoor unit’s refrigerant piping to the connective
piping that will join the indoor and outdoor units. Refer to the Refrigerant Piping Connections
section of the outdoor unit's installation manual for detailed instructions.
