CONDENSATE DRAIN TERMINATION
A condensate sump pump MUST be used if required by local codes, or
if no indoor floor drain is available. The condensate sump pump must
be approved for use with acidic condensate.

DO NOT terminate the condensate drain in a chimney, or where the
drain line may freeze. If the drain line will be exposed to tempera-
tures below freezing, adequate measures must be taken to prevent
the drain line from freezing. Failure to provide proper protection
from freezing can result in improper operation or damage to the
equipment and possible property damage. When exposed to tem-
peratures below freezing, use of a 3 to 6 watt per foot at 115 VAC,
40°F (4.4°C) self-regulating, shielded and waterproof heat tape is
recommended on the drain line outside the furnace.
DO NOT trap the drain line at any other location than at the conden-
sate drain trap supplied with the furnace.
Liquid anti-freeze will cause damage to internal plastic parts of this
furnace. DO NOT attempt to winterize the furnace using liquid
anti-freeze.
