3- Water drain installation steps.
3.1
The condensate drain line needs to be disconnected
before the left side cabinet panel can be replaced.
3.1.a
From the bottom of the unit just right of the drain valve
unscrew the condensate drip bracket.
3.1.b
From the inside, loosen the tension clamps and
remove the bracket from the hose and the hose from the
condensate line.
3.1.c
Slide the tension clamps off of the hose and use them
on next step.
3.1.d
Install one end of the supplied hose 3/8" inside
diameter x 30" long on the condensate line where the
condensate trap to drain hose were installed before, pull the
other end of the hose through the hole where the bracket
was mounted. Reinstall the inside tension clamp.
3.2
Guide the hose loose end thru the uncovered hole to the
outside bottom of the unit as drawing shows.
3.3
Thread the hose drain assembly onto the unit drain
valve, see drawing.
3.4
Connect the 3/8" diameter x 30" long hose loose end to
the plastic barb fitting on the drain assembly and reuse the
other tension hose clamps.
3.4.a
If you are installing a kit on a 3 pan model cut this
3/8" x 30" long hose to fit..
3.5
A 10ft piece of hose is supplied with this kit, it can be cut
to length and used with the elbow to help route the hose to
the proper drain location
3.6
For single units cut the long hose to length as needed to
route it to facility drain. Note hose end must have at least a
2" gap from the floor drain, do not use traps.
3.7
For double stack units, a 6.5" long piece of hose can be
cut to join the upper and lower cavities by using the supplied
tee on the bottom unit, the supplied elbow on the top unit
and a piece to connect the two cavities as shown. Permit a
2" air gap from the floor drain. Do not use traps.
4- Test to ensure the final assembly of the drain
line allows the water to flow freely
.
Loops or kinks in the hose will cause back pressure which
may cause the door to pop open during draining.
