DRAIN PIPING WORK
Piping material
• For laying pipes underground, use hard vinyl
chloride pipe. VP25 (Inner diamater Ø32mm)
Piping and cautions
• Set drain side of pipe at downward slope.
(1/100 or more)
• Be sure to apply thermal insulation (foaming
polyethylene, 10mm-thickness or more) for pipes
passing through the room.
• Adhere the connecting sections with vinyl chloride
agent surely so that no water leakage is caused.
• Apply adhesive agent without unevenness around
the portion approx. 40mm from the end of hard
polyvinyl-chloride pipe.
• Push the vinyl pipe in the drain socket completely
up to the end of the socket.
• Do not apply strength to the connecting part until
the adhesive agent has dried and hardened.
• Support the piping with hanging bracket so that the
force is not applied to connection sections of pipe
and pipe is not waved.
NOTES :
• Do not make slack or trap at halfway across piping.
• Set pipes so that the end of drain pipe is not dipped in
water, and also keep space 50mm or more to the
ground.
• After piping work, check if water drains smoothly.
• Hole should be made at a slight downward slant to
the outdoor side.
• When connecting extension drain hose, insulate the
connecting part of extension drain hose with shield
pipe.
Thermal-insulating process
• After checking water drain, be sure to apply the
thermal-insulating for connecting portion of the
pipes.
• Apply taping so that there is no clearance on the
fitting part of thermal-insulator of the main unit with
the insulator procured locally.

• As shown in the figure, set the collective piping such
as the ceiling duct so that waste water does not back
up from the main pipe.
