PLUMBING
Condensate drains should be connected to a waste or reclamation system in
order to direct the condensate out of the space. Ensure condensate lines remain
unobstructed to avoid unattended spillage or drain pan overflow. Use of a p-trap
(reference
figure 2
) is required to avoid pressure and vacuum related issues, which
can negatively affect condensate drainage. Following plumbing installation, the
system should be checked for leaks prior to attempting unattended operation.
Insulate the condensate drain a minimum of 72 inches (182.8 cm) from the unit to
avoid condensate pooling on the bottom of the drain pipes and dripping.
