outdoor side. The center of the hole should be determined referring to Fig 4.2.
(2) Insert the piping-hole sleeve into the hole to prevent the connected piping and wiring
from being damaged when passing through the hole.
4.4 Installation of the Drainage Pipes
(1) For proper draining, the drain hose should be placed at a downward sloping.
(2) Do not wrench or bend the drain hose or flood its end by water. (Fig.4.3)
(3) Wrap the drain hose with heat resistant material.
(4) It is not allowed to connect the condensate drain pipe into waste pipe or other
pipelines which are likely to produce corrosive or peculiar smell to prevent the smell
from entering indoors or corrupt the unit.
(5) It is not allowed to connect the condensate drain pipe into rain pipe to prevent rain
water from pouring in and cause property loss or personal injury.
(6) Condensate drain pipe should be connected into special drain system for air
conditioner.
