5.7
Condensate trap
V
The boiler has the potential to produce significant
amounts of condensate which must be drained and
disposed off properly.
V
Follow all applicable codes and regulations covering
the disposal of condensate originating from combus-
tion appliances.
V
Ensure that untreated condensate is only passing
through hoses and piping suitable for very low pH lev-
els.
V
If the building is connected to a municipal sewage sys-
tem, observe the rules and regulations for disposal into
the system.
V
If the building is connected to a septic system, a neu-
tralizer is recommended to avoid damage to the sys-
tem.
V
Ensure the siphon is always filled with fluid to avoid
unpleasant odors.
5.7.1
Installing and filling the trap and neutralizer
V
Install the nut on the boiler condensate drain (Fig. 22,
[4]).
V
Install the o-ring on the boiler condensate drain pipe.
V
Merge the siphon with the boiler condensate drain and
tighten the nut [4].
V
Connect the drain hose from the siphon to the neutral-
izer, and from there to the drain. Follow the instructions
provided with the neutralizer.
V
If fluid cannot be drained away by gravity, install a con-
densate pump.
V
Fill the siphon with water through the service cover [5].

Ensure that the condensate trap and piping
are installed that fluids drain away freely, and
backup into the boiler is prevented.
Warning:
Danger of life from flue gas poi-
soning
A dry siphon or leaky condensate connec-
tions can release flue gases into the building.
V
Check the siphon fluid level regularly and
fill with water if needed.
