Y joints sit in the pipework of multi-unit systems, splitting the line toward separate indoor units. Pressing the joint avoids brazing near other services and finished ceilings. Prepare the tube ends, seat them fully, press each connection with the correct jaw, then close its insulation around the fitting after testing. Install with a compatible press tool and the correct jaw for the pipe size, following RLS instructions. Refrigerant pipework must be installed by an ARC-licensed technician.
Before ordering, confirm in the system manufacturer's installation data that this branch size and type is suitable, and whether a third-party joint is allowed. Check the size of each port against the pipe on each leg.
