∗Note 1
When the equivalent pipe length between outdoor and indoor
units is 90m or more, the size of main pipes (both gas-side and
liquid-side) must be increased.
Depending on the length of the piping, the capacity may drop, but
even in such case it is able to increase the size of main pipes.
(Refer to figure 9)

2. Main pipes
3. Increase
4. The first refrigerant branch kit
5. Indoor unit
∗Note 2
Allowable length after the first refrigerant branch kit to indoor units is 40 m or less, however it can be extended up to 90 m if all the following conditions are satisfied. (In case of “ Branch with REFNET joint ” )
∗Note 3
If the pipe size above the REFNET header is φ34.9 or more, KHRP26M73HP is required.
