Allowable length/height difference of refrigerant pipinJ&DVHRI$OO2XWVLGH$LU
CAUTION
Length and height of refrigerant piping keep the limitation blow.
If installed in out of the limitation, there is a possibility that heat-exchanger in Outdoor unit will burst and leak a refrigerant gas, for freezing heat-exchanger by shortage
of defrosting capacity.
