• * : Assume equivalent pipe length of Y branch to be 0.5m(1.6ft), that of header to be 1m(3.3ft), calculation purpose
• Indoor Unit should be installed at lower position than the header.
WARNING
It is recommended that difference of piping length for pipes connected to the Indoor Unit is
minimized. Performance difference between Indoor Units may occur.
