*1 The piping specification table does not provide a minimum line set length. However, indoor units with connected piping length less than 16 ft. (5 m) could produce intermit-
tent noise during normal system operation in very quiet environments. Please be aware of this important information when installing and locating the indoor unit within the
conditioned space.
