(*1)“ ” shows outdoor unit multi connection piping
kit. Outdoor unit connection piping kit must be
located in level.
(*2)For the multi-connecting systems, please replace
“outdoor unit” with “outdoor unit multi connection
piping kit” as you read the directions.
* When multi outdoor system are installed, be sure to use the special
separately sold outdoor unit multi connection piping kit.
The table at right shows how to select the proper kit.

• When REFNET joint is used for the first branch from outdoor unit (REFNET joint A in above e.g.),
select from below chart according to outdoor unit capacity.
How to select REFNET header
• Select from below table according to total indoor units capacity index connected below REFNET header.
(Note) 250 type indoor unit cannot be connected below the REFNET header.
Use REFNET joint (s).
How to select outdoor unit multi connection piping kit
• Required for Q18 or more capacity type of outdoor unit.
• Other REFNET joints (except for the first branch) shall be selected from below table according to
total capacity index of all the indoor units connected below the REFNET joint.

Specified outdoor unit multi connection piping kit
(BHFP22P100, BHFP22P151) as an optional
accessory must be used for a multi-connecting
outdoor unit system. How to select (a proper kit) is
according to this sheet.
Make sure not to use the outdoor unit connection
piping kit (BHFP22M90) or T-joints.
