Indoor Unit Capacity
9,600-24,200 Btu/h 4-way 3 feet x 3 feet Cassette and 15,400-24,200 Btu/h High Static Ducted IDUs have 3/8Ø (liquid) and 5/8Ø (vapor).

Conditional Applications
Conditional applications are computed in LATS. See below for an explanation of when pipes are upsized.
If the equivalent length between the first Y-branch to the farthest indoor unit is >131 feet (maximum 295 feet):
• Pipe segment diameters between the first branch and the last branch must be sized up by one. This applies to both liquid and low / high
vapor pipes. If the next size up is not available, or if the pipe segment diameters are the same as main pipe (A) diameters, sizing up is not
possible.
• While calculating total refrigerant piping length, pipe (B) segment lengths between the first Y-branch and second Y-branch, and between the
second Y-branch and the heat recovery unit must be calculated by two.
