WASTE OUTLET AND P-TRAP
A 1” P-TRAP and threaded adapter are supplied with
each fixture. The P-TRAP must be installed to prevent air
leakage and insect entrance into the fixture.
INSTALLING CONDENSATE DRAIN
Poorly or improperly installed condensate drains can
seriously interfere with the operation of this refrigerated
display case, and result in costly maintenance and
product loss. Please follow the recommendations listed
below when installing condensate drains to insure proper
installation:
1. Never use pipe for condensate drains smaller than the
nominal diameter of the pipe or P-TRAP supplied with
the case.
2. When connecting condensate drains, the P-TRAP
must be used as part of the condensate drain
to prevent air leakage or insect entrance. Store
plumbing system floor drains should be at least 14” off
the center of the case to allow use of the P-TRAP pipe
section. Never use two water seals in series in any
one line. Double P-TRAPS in series will cause a lock
and prevent draining.
3. Always provide as much down hill slope (“fall”) as
possible; 1/8” per foot is the preferred minimum. PVC
pipe, when used, must be supported to maintain the
1/8” pitch and to prevent warping.
4. Plumbing
4. Avoid long runs of condensate drains. Long runs
make it impossible to provide the “fall” necessary for
good drainage.
5. Provide a suitable air break between the flood rim of
the floor drain and outlet of condensate drain. 1” is
ideal.
6. Prevent condensate drains from freezing:
a. Do not install condensate drains in contact with
non-insulated suction lines. Suction lines should be
insulated with a non absorbent insulation material.
b. Where condensate drains are located in dead
air spaces (between refrigerators or between a
refrigerator and a wall), provide means to prevent
freezing. The water seal should be insulated to
prevent condensation.
