Condensate Drain
2.6.1
It is important that any condensate MUST be drained away.
•
The Vireo HR155WM / HR185WM unit is provided with a condensate drain located at the base of the
unit underneath
(See Figures 6-10)
.
•
The Vireo HR155CM unit is provided with a condensate drain located at the side of the unit
(See Figures 11-13)
and can be rotated for ease of connection.
The drain plug allows a condensate drain hose (21.5mm diameter) to be push connected and solvent
welded/sealed. Please ensure a water tight seal is achieved.
2.6.2
The drain must have a continuous minimum fall of 6mm per 1m run and can either be chased into the wall or
run downwards from the unit into the nearest waste water network. Ensure that steps are taken to minimise
the risk of mechanical damage to the drainage pipe work.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The condensate drain must incorporate a U bend to
create an air block and avoid leakage of smells back into the unit. If the unit
is installed within a loft space, please ensure that the condensate drain is
insulated to prevent against freezing.
2.6.3
In some instances, a condensate connecting point will already be provided as part of the building design.
The position of this point, relative to where the unit is to be installed should be checked for any connection
misalignment and any necessary adjustment made before proceeding any further.
