26 Installing the System Piping
Installation
●
The inlet has a center connection port and the outlet has an
offset connection.
●
Install the neutralizer on the wall or the floor and secure it using
the brackets supplied with the kit.
●
If the neutralizer is installed horizontally, rotate the neutralizer to
position the outlet at the highest point (Figure 1).
●
If the neutralizer is mounted vertically, ensure that the outlet is
higher than the inlet (Figure 2).
●
Ensure that the condensate runs freely to the drain.
●
Ensure all connections are made to prevent the backflow of
condensate. Use corrosion resistant piping and secure all piping
to prevent movement.
Note
Do not install condensate piping in areas where the
temperature drops below freezing point. Protect piping
in high pedestrian areas from damage and vibration.
●
For increased safety when the condensate drain blocks, install
a Y-fitting. Connect the Y-fitting as shown in the installation
diagram and ensure that the condensate runs freely to the drain.
●
Ensure that the discharge connection is accessible. Access to
the discharge connection is required for maintenance and pH
testing.
●
If there is insufficient gradient for drainage, install a drainage
pump designed for boiler and water heater condensate removal.
