Condensate line must slope downward away from the
trap to drain. If drain level is above condensate trap,
condensate pump must be used. Condensate drain
line should be routed within the conditioned space to
avoid freezing of condensate and blockage of drain
line. If this is not possible, a heat cable kit may be used
on the condensate trap and line. Heating cable kit is
available from Lennox in various lengths; 6 ft. (1.8m) −
kit no. 26K68; 24 ft. (7.3m) − kit no. 26K69; and 50 ft.
(15.2m) − kit no. 26K70.
