EVAPORATOR CONDENSATE DRAIN TUBE
WARNING TO INSTALLER:
Evaporator Condensate Drain Tube may become dislodged during shipping. Installer must check
Evaporator Condensate Drain Tube upon installation to be sure drain tube is properly seated and
installed correctly.
Evaporator Drain Tube must be attached to tube protruding from bottom of Evaporator Tub and must either be inside the
Condensate Pan area or inside of hole of Condensate Pump.
5.3
CONDENSATE PUMP
A condensate pump is Standard on some models and Optional on all models. Installer must check unit to see if a
condensate pump has been provided with case.
WARNING TO INSTALLER:
Installer must determine if case was provided with condensate pump. Failure to hook up pump
hose to drain will cause water on floor and cause a slip hazard.
Instead of using heat energy to remove condensate run off from the evaporator coil a condensate pump moves the water to
a nearby drain.
•
The Condensate Pump is provided with 50ft of clear 1/2in OD x 3/8in ID tubing that must be run out of the base
area to a drain.
•
There are several drain tube exit locations provided in the base as noted in the drawing above. Plugs or caps will
need to be removed in the desired exit location.
•
The hose can be run the entire 50ft in any direction as required, but no higher than 20ft from the pump base. A
check valve is provided in the pump to prevent water from flowing back into the reservoir. For best efficiency
extend the hose level below the level of the pump base to create a siphoning effect. Never run the hose to or
through an area below freezing (32°F, 0°C) or freezing water will block the tube.
