furnace drain (if applicable), to the
inlet holes on the pump. Refer to
Figure 5.
STEP 4: INSTALLATION OF
DISCHARGE LINE
NOTE:
Use 3/8” I.D. (max.) flexible
tubing.. A hose clamp is recommended
(not provided).
A. Extend discharge pipe from barbed
check valve to the highest point
possible. Refer to Figure 6.
B. From this point, direct the
discharge line to the location of the
drainage source. Maintain a
continuous downward slope.
NOTE:
Construct an inverted “U” (see
Figure 6) at the highest point of
discharge line if a continuous
downward slope is not possible.
Exercise care not to kink or “pinch off”
the flow of condensate liquid.
STEP 5: INSTALLATION OF
SAFETY SWITCH (IF APPLICABLE)
Connect power cord
to a constant
voltage source. Do not connect to a fan
or other device that may run
intermittently.
A. The pump can be wired directly to
the appliance thermostat to shut
the pump and appliance down in
the event of pump failure. Refer to
Figure 7 for typical wiring diagram.
NOTE:
The alarm can be wired in the
safety switch at the normally open
(“NO”) contact.
TIPS FOR EASY INSTALLATION
1. After reading instructions, check to
make sure installation does not
exceed a maximum of 15 feet of
vertical lift.
2. Make sure pump is level. No part of
the pump base should be more
than 1/8” off of level plane.
3. Use soapy water on unit when
performing cleaning maintenance.
(Refer to Maintenance guidelines.)
4. For optimum performance, drain
and discharge lines should have a
continuous downward slope. Test
operation of pump to make sure
lines have enough downward slope
