Preparation of Piping
Connecting Pipes to the Indoor Unit
Main cause of gas leakage is defect in flaring
work. Carry out correct flaring work in the
following procedure.
1) Cut the pipes and the cable.
• Use the accessory piping kit or the pipes
purchased locally.
• Measure the distance between the indoor and
the outdoor unit.
• Cut the pipes a little longer than measured
distance.
• Cut the cable 1.5m longer than the pipe length.
2) Burrs removal
• Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross
section of pipe/tube.
• Put the end of the copper tube/pipe to downward
direction as you remove burrs in order to avoid to
let burrs drop in the tubing.
3) Putting nut on
• Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and
outdoor units, than put them on pipe/tube having
completed burr removal.
(Not possible to put them on after flaring work)
4) Flaring work
• Carry out flaring work using flaring tool as shown
below.
Firmly hold copper tube in a bar(or die) as
indicated dimension in the table above.
5) Check
Compare the flared work with figure below.
If flare is noted to be defective, cut off the flared
section and do flaring work again.
• If the piping and the drain hose are in common
direction bundle the piping and the drain hose
together by wrapping them with vinyl tape.
