Cooling Coil Trap
There is a field plumbing connection that is required for the DX/cooling coil. This connection is for the drain
pan located under the DX/cooling coil. Also, it is recommended that all plumbing connections be sealed
with Teflon tape or pipe dope.
Install Condensate Trap Assembly to 1” threaded drain pan connection. Use low-profile couplings and 1”
PVC piping to connect on-site drainage to the Condensate Trap Assembly.
DO NOT USE UNIONS
. The
Condensate Trap Assembly is important for two reasons. First, it will allow drainage to be piped to the most
convenient area. Second, it will keep air from being drawn into the system, impeding drainage. The top lids
of the Condensate Trap Assembly should be removable to allow for cleaning of the trap.
