TO OPEN
DRAIN
For Right Side Condensate Drain:
1. Remove the 7/8
−
in. knock
−
out from the right side of the
casing. (See
Figure 15
)
2. Remove the pre
−
formed drain tube and two spring
clamps from the loose parts bag.
3. Slide a spring clamp 1
−
in. down the plain end of the
drain tube.
4. From inside the casing, insert the formed grommet end
of the tube through the 7/8
−
in. knockout in the casing.
5. Pull the tube through the casing from the outside until it is
seated in the knockout
6. Attach the plain end of the drain tube to the outlet stub
on the drain trap. Secure the drain tube to the trap with
the spring clamp.
7. Slide a spring clamp over the open end of the drain tube
outside the casing.
8. Open the spring clamp and connect a field
−
supplied
1/2
−
in. CPVC street elbow to the open end of the drain
tube.
9. Connect additional 1/2
−
in. CPVC piping to a condensate
pump approved for use with acidic furnace condensate
or to a code
−
approved drain.
For Left Side Condensate Drain Connection:
1. For left side condensate drainage, the drain line is routed
from the condensate trap, behind the inducer and out
through the left side of the casing. A pre-formed “Z” pipe
is provided in the loose parts bag shipped with the
furnace. The “Z” pipe is long enough to extend out of the
casing on the 14 3/16-in. (360 mm) wide furnace. Larger
casings will require a field supplied CPVC pipe and to
extend the drain line out of the furnace.
2. The “Z” pipe is connected to the condensate trap by
modifying the formed rubber drain tube. Connect the
drain line as shown below:
3. Remove the knock
−
out from the left side of the casing.
(See
Figure 15
)
4. Install the grommet for the 1/2
−
in. CPVC drain line in the
7/8
−
in. knockout in the casing.
5. Remove the pre
−
formed drain tube, the offset 1/2
−
in.
CPVC pipe and two spring clamps from the loose parts
bag.
6. Remove the formed grommet on the tube by cutting the
tube along the vertical line located about 1
−
in. away from
the formed grommet. (See
Figure 13
)

RIGHT SIDE DRAIN ELBOW
Cut and remove formed end of
drain tube for left side and horizontal
drain connection
7. Slide a spring clamp 1
−
in. down the plain end of the
drain tube
8. With the bend in the tube oriented horizontally and plain
end of the tube pointing away from you, insert the 1/2
−
in
CPVC pipe into the other end of the drain tube. Rotate
the tube so the offset in the tube points away from you.
Slide a spring clamp over the open end of the 1/2
−
in.
CPVC tube and secure the cut end of drain tube to the
pipe. (See
Figure 14
)

10. Route the offset pipe behind the inducer assembly and
through the grommet in the casing, if the “Z” pipe is long
enough. If the “Z” pipe is not long enough, continue with
installation.
11. Attach the plain end of the drain tube to the outlet stub
on the drain trap. Secure the drain tube to the trap with
the spring clamp.
