7.7 Condensate Drain Trap
A condensate drain trap is included with the unit
and is designed to drain the unit of condensate.
See Figure 2 on page 7. The vent condensate
should be drained through a drain tee located in
the vent line. This will help prevent excessive
condensate from entering the unit at the vent.
The condensate drain must be installed to
prevent the accumulation of condensate. When
a condensate pump is not used, the tubing must
continuously slope downward toward the drain with
no spiraling.

accessories must be calculated and added to the heater
head loss to get the total required pump head. An

Consult local codes for the disposal method.
A condensate neutralizer is not included with the unit
and yet is almost always used. It is advised that the
unit be installed on a raised 4” concrete platform so

Caution
Condensate is mildly acidic (pH
=
5), and

particularly those that are metal. Ensure that
the drain, drainpipe, and anything that will come
in contact with the condensate can withstand
the acidity, or neutralize the condensate before
disposal.
Damage caused by failure to
install a neutralizer kit or to adequately treat
condensate will not be the manufacturer’s
responsibility.
NOTES:
1. Optional CWMU & recirculation line location.
2. Locate NTV DHW sensor or remote aquastat well in lower 1/3 of tank.
3. Back Flow Preventer may be required. Check local codes.
4. Thermal expansion tank may be required. Check local codes.
5. Factory mounted pumps are sized for a max pipe length of 30’ total, 6-90° elbows, full pipe size.
6. CAUTION: Pump sizing must be based upon water hardness at job site.
