If you choose option B, the neutralizing agent must be replaced periodically. Depletion of the
neutralizing agent will vary, based on the usage rate of the water heater. During the first year of
operation, the neutralizer should be checked every few months for depletion and replaced as
needed.
If you choose option C, a pump can be used when there is a long distance between the water
heater and the laundry tub, or when the bottom of the water heater is lower than the top of the
laundry tub.
If you choose option D, the bottom of the water heater must be higher than the top of the laundry
tub. The condensate line must have a negative slope to drain properly.

From the water heater, through a neutralizing
agent, and then into an external drain.

This water heater creates condensation as part of its normal operation. The condensation
produced is acidic and generally ranges from 3-5 on the pH scale. Be sure to follow all local
codes and regulations when disposing of condensate from the water heater. Check local codes for suitable
waste drain locations, if applicable.
DO NOT
cap or plug the integrated condensate line. If the condensate line is obstructed,
impeding its ability to drain, it could damage the water heater.
DO NOT
allow people or animals to drink the condensate water.
• The condensate line must have a negative slope to drain properly.
• Once the condensate drain pipe has been installed, fill the condensate trap with water to
ensure it flows through the drain pipe freely.
