Heat Recovery Units
Con nued
For Size 5 EVC units and all other units not supplied with a perastal c pump, connect the drain
to an appropriate waste system ensuring the connec on is trapped correctly using the
tradi onal trapping method Fig. . Considera on should be given to the height required for the
trap to func on correctly and that the unit may need addi onal base support in order to
accommodate this correctly.
The drain pan is fi ed with an internal drain spigot suitable for connec on with a Ø15mm
push-fit straight connector, to be supplied by others. Terminate through the case onsite as
required, ensuring that any swarf is removed and that the unit is sealed a er connec on.
Should it be required to remove any component, ensure that it is replaced correctly
It is important that the drain be allowed to clear without obstruc on. Ensure that the unit is
mounted level and the drainpan is angled so that water drains towards the drain spigot as the
drain may have moved during transit/installa on.
Failure to do this may result in excess condensa on within the unit and possible flooding.
