Connect Condensate Drain Piping
Note:
Downflow and horizontal orientations require the Coil panel to
be removed in order to make the drain connections.
Note:
Make certain that the unit has been installed in a level position
to allow for proper draining.
1.
Select the drain connections that are oriented for your
application.
2.
Prepare the condensate drain connections.
a.
From the factory, the unit comes with plugs in both upflow
condensate drains and an additional plug in the
documentation packet.
b.
For upflow applications, remove upflow condensate plug(s)
and connect condensate piping.
c.
For all other applications, do not remove upflow condensate
plugs. Remove the cover from the needed condensate drain
connections and connect condensate piping.
d.
If the secondary condensate opening is not used, plug the
condensate opening with the fitting supplied in the
documentation pack. Use scissors to cut the air seal in half
and re-install over the unused opening.

Note:
A small amount of sealant must be applied around the drain line
(s) passing through the panel to prevent air leakage and
possible water drips.
•
Dry fit and test clearance for coil panel removal before applying
PVC/CPVC cement.
•
Use Teflon tape on the air handler drain line connections. Do not
use pipe joint compound or PVC/CPVC cement on drain nipple.
•
Hand tighten the drain pipe.
3.
For upflow installations, connect 3/4” PVC pipe to the threaded
drain nipple with PVC/CPVC cement. 3” minimum clearance to the
condensate piping is needed for coil panel removal. Thread the
assembly into the primary drain connection (repeat for the
secondary drain connection if used).
IMPORTANT:
For Horizontal and Downflow installations, the
following order must be observed:
a.
Remove panel and insert the 3/4” nipples.
b.
Reinstall the panel.
c.
Connect the condensate lines to the nipples.
Important:
For Horizontal and Downflow installations, the following
order must be observed:
Note:
A small amount of sealant must be applied around the drain line
(s) passing through the panel to prevent air leakage and
possible water drips.
