    (27 attempts at ignition) and post purge. Condensate Removal Tube with Exhaust Tee Assembly An important part of the Triton is the condensate removal tube that comes included in the exhaust T. During main burner, water vapor is created. As the heat is transferred into the water thru the flue bundles, this water vapor condenses and becomes a liquid.
