•
Condense is mildly acidic, typically pH3
-
pH5.
•
Condense pipework must be non
-
corrosive and not copper. Hamworthy recommend
32mm dia. Plastic waste pipe. Typical volume of condensate produced is 15l/h per
100kW
•
Condense may be discharged to a standard drain subject to National or Local
regulations.
•
Location of condense pipework should prevent freezing within tundish’s, traps and
pipework.
•
The connection to the boiler condense drain accepts a straight push
-
fit coupling for
32mm i.d. plastic waste pipe.
