GENERAL WARNINGS CONCERNING THE CONDENSATE DRAIN
The condensate disposal system must be made in compliance with the European, National and
Local Reference Standards, verifying the need for a neutralization treatment if necessary.
For information purposes, here are some requirements:
•
the condensate disposal system must be dimensioned and constructed so as to allow for the correct
flow of waste liquid, without leakages;
•
all the condensate drain pipes should be connected independently, avoiding their convoy;
•
fumes must not come out of the condensate drain. For this reason it is mandatory to install a siphon
equipped with a float;
•
if any condensation forms in the flue, it must not be able to return to the unit. There must be a
dedicated condensate drain;
•
the condensate discharge system must be inclined suitably. It is forbidden to install pipes that are
levelled and/or not inclined;
•
in case of connection to the sewage system, a suitable syphon or equivalent device designed to
prevent the return of fumes from the sewer system must be installed;
•
the system must be made so as to prevent the liquid contained from freezing in all
operating conditions;
•
there must be a device that interrupts the operation of the burner in the event of the accidental
blockage of the condensate discharge system, before causing dangerous situations or unhealthy
combustion;
