Be sure to perform heat insulation on the drain piping.Heat insulation material: Polyethylene foam with thickness more than 8 mm (local supply). Drain piping must have down-slope (1/50 to 1/100); be sure not to provide up-and-down slope to prevent reversalflow. Be sure to check no air trap on drain hose and to ensure smooth water flow and no abnormal sound. The height of drain may be possible up to 750 mm. When drain set piping, install as shown in thefigure below.Drain Test The air conditioner uses a drain up motor to drain water. Use the following procedure to test the drain up motor operation. Connect the main drain pipe to exterior and leave it provisionally until the test comes to an end. Feed water to the flexible drain hose and check the piping for leakage. Be sure to check the drain up motor for normal operating and noise when electric wiring is complete. When the test is complete, connect the flexible drain hose to the drain port.
