BR342 Ducted Installation Instructions
Fitment of Optional Condensation Drain Extension
19
•
The unit features condensation drain outlets which allow the fitment of a PVC tube in
order to channel the condensation water to a specific area. For example it can be used
to channel the condensation water to the rear of the caravan or RV and prevent runoff
to the sides where doorways or windows are. FIG. 14 shows one example setup.
•
Commonly available PVC tubing should be used of 12.7mm inner diameter and pushed
onto the drain pipe fitting on the bottom of the rooftop unit around 15mm to help
prevent detachment over time (refer to FIG. 14).
•
The PVC tube should be routed around the foam support blocks on the underside of
the rooftop unit to ensure the tube does not get compressed.
•
The condition of the PVC tube should be regularly checked to ensure it is free of any
defects that may prevent good drainage (such as being blocked, compressed or
kinked).
FIG. 14
NOTICE!
It is important to minimise sharp bends, kinks or high/low points in the tube as
it may prevent proper draining of the condensation, and in severe cases this
could result in water dripping inside the caravan.
NOTE
The PVC tube should
NEVER
raise higher than the level of the drain pipe
fitting.
