NOTES
The Benchmark Commissioning Checklist should be completed as
required to record details of the condensate drainage pipe installation.
Where an external condensate drainage pipe is installed, the customer should be
made aware of the risks and consequences of its freezing and offered the option to fit
trace heating (or other measures approved by the boiler manufacturer or service
organisation).
Separate guidance has been published for householders on remedial actions which
can be taken if a condensate drainage pipe freezes. This may result in requests for
alteration to condensate drainage pipework, in which case the guidance above
should be followed.
I
n some instances (e.g. where an elderly person’s heating needs to be reinstated as
an emergency measure) condensate drainage pipes may have been cut in order to
bypass any blockage and allow re-ignition of the boiler, with condensate being
collected in a suitable container as a temporary solution.
While not unsafe, this is not recommended practice and if such action has been
taken then the condensate drainage pipe must be reinstated as soon as possible,
using the above guidance to reduce risk of freezing in future.
