So the units come with the pipe connected and purged. What happens if the distance between the header and a/c unit is only 3 or 4 feet do you just coil up the pipe to shorten it? Is the pipe some sort of flexible pipe more like hose for the US units? Ours use ridged copper pipe and you cut it to length to suit your installation. Phil Link to comment
Chuck Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I just coiled the excess behind the evaporator. A hivac guy I know says that is actually a good thing. 2 Link to comment

Not so sure that Liquid Tight would pass inspection. Maybe lose some slack and strap it horizontally to the masonry would be the trick. Link to comment
