4.5 Condensate Connections
•
Provision must be made for removal of condensate from the boiler and flue system.
•
If the flue system is longer than the standard length of 0.9m, an inline condense
drain must be fitted immediately before the connection of the flue system to the
boiler and taken to drain.
•
Condense is mildly acidic, typically pH3 - pH5.
•
Condense pipe work must be non-corrosive and not copper. Hamworthy
recommend plastic waste pipe.
•
Condense may be discharged to a standard drain subject to National or Local
regulations.
•
Location of condense pipe work should prevent freezing within tundishes, traps and
pipe work.
•
The connection to the boiler condense drain accepts a straight push-fit coupling for
32mm i.d. (40mm o.d) plastic waste pipe.
•
Maximum condensate production - 15 l/h per 100kW firing capacity
