1. The position of the condensate pipe connection is shown below.
7. Condensate Piping
Perform condensate piping work and attach the insulation before attempting any refrigerant piping work.
2. Prepare PVC piping with 1-1/4 inches (32mm) outer diameter and an elbow piping joint with VP25.
3. Connecting Condensate Piping
NOTE:
Follow procedures b. and c. to install the factory supplied condensate hose and pipe without adhesive.
a. Connect the factory-supplied condensate hose at the condensate pipe connection using
PVC adhesive. Clean the affected surfaces, apply the adhesive and cure in accordance with
manufacturer’s instructions.
b. Insert the condensate hose completely. If it is not inserted properly, or if it is twisted, water leakage
can occur.
● Check to ensure that the condensate pipe discharges moisture properly. If connected incorrectly, it can
cause structural damage to indoor wall and ceiling surfaces and damage to property.
● Avoid sloping the condensate pipe upward as this impede drainage. Moisture can settle back into the unit
and it cause water leakage when the unit operation stops.
● Do not connect condensate piping with sanitary or sewer lines or any other condensate pipe.
● When the main condensate pipe is connected with other indoor units, the connected position of each
indoor unit must be higher than the main pipe. The pipe size of the main condensate pipe must be large
enough according to the unit size and number of units.
● After performing condensate piping work and electrical wiring, check to ensure that water outflow is
smooth as in the following procedure.
Do not run condensate piping into underground areas near sanitary or sewage lines where toxic and
corrosive gases can seep into the system. This creates a pathway for the flow of poisonous gas to
penetrate inhabited areas.
