on the bottom. See Fig. 17. Unit airflow configuration
does not determine which drain connection to use. Either
drain connection can be used with vertical or horizontal
applications.
When using the standard side drain connection, ensure the
red plug in the alternate bottom connection is tight. Do this
before setting the unit in place. The red drain pan can be

Fig. 18 - - Condensate Drain Piping Details
All units must have an external trap for condensate
drainage. Install a trap at least 4-inch (102 mm) deep and
protect against freeze-up. If drain line is installed
downstream from the external trap, pitch the line away
from the unit at 1-inch per 10 ft (25 mm in 3 m) of run. Do
not use a pipe size smaller than the unit connection
