2.9 Condensate discharge
The condensate discharge pipes must be suitably
sized (minimum inside pipe diameter 16 mm / 1/2")
and the pipeline positioned so that it keeps a constant
inclination, never less than 1%. In a vertical installation,
the discharge pipe is connected directly to the
discharge tray, positioned underneath the water
connections. In a horizontal installation the discharge
tube is connected to the one already present in the unit.
For installation of the VS versions in a horizontal
position, horizontal condensation collection tray
accessory kits are available.
• If possible, the condensate pipework should be
directed into a rainwater discharge.
• When discharging directly into the main drains, it is
essential to make a siphon to prevent bad odours coming
up the pipe into the room. The curve of the siphon must be
lower than the condensation collection bowl.
• If the condensate needs to be discharged into
a container, the container must be open to the
atmosphere and the tube must not be immersed in
water so that the normal outflow is not restricted.
• If there is a height difference that could interfere with
the outflow of condensate, a pump must be fitted:
• In a vertical installation mount the pump under the
lateral drainage tray.
• In a horizontal installation the pump position must be
decided according to the specific requirements.
Such pumps are readily available.
On completion of the installation, it is advisable to
check the correct outflow of the condensate by slowly
pouring about 0.5 l (0.5 quarts) of water into the
collection tray in about 5-10 minutes.
Condensate discharge pipe connection – vertically mounted units
Check that the condensate collection tray is present
and is correctly installed. Connect the discharge pipe (

) to condensate collection
tray (
A
).

Condensate discharge pipe connection – horizontally mounted units
To mount the horizontal condensate tray on the VS
units refer to the instructions supplied with accessory kits.
• Check that the "L" pipe (
A
) and the flexible rubber
hose are correctly connected to the condensate tray.
• Slide in the side of the unit keeping the pipe in position
up against the front grille.
• Fully close the side checking that the pipe remains
tight in the special groove on the side.
N.B. for a horizontal installation carefully note the
following precautions:
• Make sure that the unit is installed perfectly level
or with a slight inclination towards the condensate
discharge point.
• Carefully insulate the flow and return pipes to the unit
to pre vent any drops of condensate falling outside the
drip tray.
• Insulate the condensate discharge pipe (
B
) along its
complete length.
