Flaring work and connection of piping
Flaring work and connection of piping
Flaring Work
Main cause for gas leakage is due to defect in flaring work. Carry out correct flaring work in the following procedure.
Cutting the pipes and the cable.
1. Use the piping kit accessory or the pipes purchased
locally.
2. Measure the distance between the indoor and the
outdoor unit.
3. Cut the pipes a little longer than measured distance.
4. Cut the cable 4.9ft(1.5m) longer than the pipe length.
Removing burrs
1. Completely remove all burrs from the cut cross section
of pipe/tube.
2. Put the end of the copper tube/pipe in a downward
direction as you remove burrs in order to avoid dropping
burrs into the tubing.
Putting nut on
• Remove flare nuts attached to indoor and outdoor unit,
then put them on pipe/tube having completed burr
removal.
(not possible to put them on after flaring work)
Flaring work
1. Firmly hold copper pipe in a die in the dimension shown
in the table below.
2. Carry out flaring work with the flaring tool.

Flaring work and connection of piping
Check
1. Compare the flared work with the figure by.
2. If a flared section is defective, cut it off and do flaring
work again.
Indoor
Preparing the indoor unit's piping and drain hose for installation through the wall.
CAUTION: If the drain hose is routed inside the room, insulate the hose with an
insulation material* so that dripping from "sweating"(condensation) will not dam-
age furniture or floors.
*Foamed polyethylene or equivalent is recommended.
1. Route the indoor tubing and the drain hose in the
direction of rear left or right
2. Tape the tubing, drain hose and the connecting cable.
Be sure that the drain hose is located at the lowest
side of the bundle. Locating at the upper side can
cause drain pan to overflow inside the unit.
