Condensate Drain
IMPORTANT
A field-fabricated secondary drain pan, with a drain pipe
to the outside of the building, is required in all installa
tions over a finished living space or in any area that may
be damaged by overflow from the main drain pan. In
some localities, local codes may require a secondary
drain pan for any horizontal installation.
The air handler is provided with ¾” NPT condensate drain
connections.
SLOPING THE UNIT
Make sure the unit is sloped (similar to the slope shown in
figure 14) (horizontal or up-flow) so that the drain pan will
empty completely without water standing in the pan.
THIS CORNER SHOULD BE 5/8” (+/- 1/8”) HIGHER

IMPORTANT
On some pans, the primary and secondary drain holes
have knockouts.
Confirm primary and secondary drains are open.
