WARNING
BOILER CONDENSATE IS CORROSIVE. ROUTE CONDENSATE DRAIN LINE IN A MANNER SUCH
THAT ANY CONDENSATE LEAKAGE WILL NOT CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE.
WARNING
FAILURE TO INSTALL THE CONDENSATE TRAP AND CONDENSATE DRAIN IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS COULD CAUSE FLUE GAS TO ENTER THE BUILDING, RESULTING IN
PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
F. Condensate Trap & Drain Line
All condensate which forms in the boiler and vent system collects in both the sump under the heat exchanger and
the vent adapter (either stainless or concentric vent adapters) and leaves the boiler through the condensate trap. This
trap allows condensate to drain from the sump and the vent adapter while retaining flue gases in the boiler. A length
of corrugated drain hose is supplied with the boiler and is connected to the trap as shown in Figure 6.23. This hose
should be routed through the back of the boiler. Route this hose to a drain or other suitable point for disposal. Note the
following when disposing of the condensate:
a) If the condensate drain line must be extended, construct the extension from PVC or CPVC pipe. Insert the
hose provided with the boiler into the end of the extension as shown in Figure 6.23.
b) Condensate is slightly acidic. Do not use metallic pipe or fittings in the condensate drain line. Do not route
the drain line through areas that could be damaged by leaking condensate.
c) Some jurisdictions may require that the condensate be neutralized before disposing it. Dispose of
condensate in accordance with local codes.
d) Do not route, or terminate, the condensate drain line in areas subjected to freezing temperatures.
e) If the point of condensate disposal is above the trap, it will be necessary to use a condensate pump to
move the condensate to the drain. In such cases, select a condensate pump that is approved for use
with condensing furnaces. If overflow from this pump would result in property damage, select a pump
with an overflow switch and use this switch to shut down the boiler. Alternatively, if heat is a necessity, use
the overflow switch to trigger an alarm.
f) Do not attempt to move the trap from it’s mounted position on the sump. Do not attempt to substitute
another trap for the one provided with the boiler.
g) The vent shown in Figure 6.23 must be left open for the trap to work properly.
