4. Installing the refrigerant piping
4.7. Precautions when reusing existing R22 refrigerant pipes
• Refer to the flowchart below to determine if the existing pipes can be used and if it is necessary to use a filter dryer.
• If the diameter of the existing pipes is different from the specified diameter, refer to technological data materials to confirm if the pipes can be used.
• If the diameter of the existing gas side pipe is bigger than the specified diameter, turn SW8-1 on.
The existing pipe thickness meets specifi-
cations and the pipes are not damaged.
Check if the existing air conditioner can operate.
After operating the cooling system for about 30
minutes, do a pump down work.
Disconnect the existing air conditioner from the
pipes.
Attach the new air conditioner
Perform the airtight test, vacuum air purging, ad-
ditional refrigerant charging (if necessary), and
gas leak check.

Measure the existing pipe thickness and check
for damage.
* If the existing air conditioner cannot operate, use
a refrigerant recovery device to collect the refrig-
erant.
* In case existing pipes were used for gas or oil
heat pump systems, be sure to clean the pipes
for RP100-140 models.
Use new pipes for RP35-71 models.

The existing pipe thickness does not meet
specifications or the pipes are damaged.
The existing pipes cannot be reused.
Use new pipes.
