12.1. Insulation
To avoid dew drops, provide sufficient anti-sweating insulation to the refrigerant and drain pipes. When us-
ing commercially available refrigerant pipes, be sure to cover with available insulating material with heat-
resistant temperature of more than 100 °C [212 °F] and thickness given below, on both liquid and gas
pipes. Insulate all indoor pipes with polyethylene insulation with a minimum density of 0.03 and a thickness
as specified in the table below.
Pipe size Insulation thickness
6.4 mm to 25.4 mm [1/4 to 1 in.] >10 mm [7/16 in.]
28.6 mm to 38.1 mm [1-1/8 to 1-1/2 in.] >15 mm [5/8 in.]
If the unit is used on the highest story of a building and under high temperature and high humidity, it is
necessary to use thicker insulation than specified in the table above
