Sanyo SPW-XR254EH56 operation manual Installing the Drain Piping

2-4. Installing the Drain Piping

(1)Prepare standard hard PVC pipe for the drain and use the supplied drain hose and hose band to prevent water leaks.

The PVC pipe must be purchased separately.

The transparent part allows you to check drain- age. (Fig. 2-6)

	Tighten the hose clamps
CAUTION	so their locking nuts face
	upward. (Fig. 2-6)

(2)After checking the drainage, wrap the supplied packing and drain pipe insulator around the pipe. (Fig. 2-7)

Ensure the drain pipe has a downward gradient (1/100 or more) and that there are no water traps.

● If it is necessary to increase the height

of the drain pipe, the section directly

after the connection port can be raised

a maximum of 50 cm. Do not raise it

any higher than 50 cm, as this could

result in water leaks.

(Fig. 2-9)

● Do not install the pipe with an upward

gradient from the connection port. It

will cause the drain water to flow

backwards and leak when the unit is

stopped. (Fig. 2-10)

● Do not apply force to the piping on the

unit side when connecting the drain

pipe. The pipe should not be allowed

to hang unsupported from its connec-

tion to the unit. Fasten the pipe to a

wall, frame, or other support as close

to the unit as possible. (Fig. 2-11)

● Provide insulation for any drain pipes

that are installed indoors.
