Step 8 Performing the gas leak test
To identify potential gas leaks on the indoor unit, inspect
the connection area of each refrigerant pipe using a leak
detector for R-410A.
Before recreating the vacuum and recirculating the
refrigerant gas, pressurize the whole system with
nitrogen (using a cylinder with a pressure reducer)
at a pressure above 4.1MPa (594.7 psig) in order to
immediately detect leaks on the refrigerant fittings.
Made vacuum for 15 minutes and pressurizing system
with nitrogen.

Step 9 Insulating the refrigerant pipes
Once you have checked that there are no leaks in the
system, you can insulate the piping and hose.
1
To avoid condensation problems, place Acrylonitrile
Butadien Rubber separately around each refrigerant
pipe.
No gap
NBR (T13.0 (1/2") or thicker)
NOTE
• Always make the seam of pipes face upwards.
2
Wind insulating tape around the pipes and drain hose
avoiding compressing the insulation too much.
3
Finish wrapping insulating tape around the rest of the
pipes leading to the outdoor unit.
4
The pipes and electrical cables connecting the indoor
unit with the outdoor unit must be fixed to the wall
with suitable ducts.

CAUTION
• Must fit tightly against body without any gap.
• Install the insulation not to get wider and use the
adhesives on the connection part of it to prevent
moisture from entering.
• Wind the refrigerant pipe with insulation tape if it is
exposed to outside sunlight.
• Install the refrigerant pipe respecting that the
insulation does not get thinner on the bent part or
hanger of pipe.
• Add the additional insulation if the insulation plate
gets thinner.
