Condensate Drain - Bryant 350MAV Installation, Start-Up, And Operating Instructions Manual

furnaces are vented near each other, 2 vent terminations may be
installed as shown in Fig. 35, 36, 37, 38, or 39, but next vent
termination must be at least 36 in. away from first 2 terminations.
It is important that vent terminations be made as shown to avoid
recirculation of flue gases. Dimension "A" in Fig. 35, 36, 37, 38,
and 39 represents distance between pipes or rain shields, as
touching or 2-in. maximum separation.

unless drain trap and drain line have adequate freeze

X. CONDENSATE DRAIN
A. General
Condensate trap is shipped installed in the blower shelf and factory
connected for UPFLOW applies Condensate trap must be RELO-
CATED for use in DOWNFLOW and HORIZONTAL applica-
tions.
Condensate trap MUST be used for all applications.
An external trap is not required when connecting the field drain to
this condensate trap.
The field drain connection (condensate trap or drain tube coupling)
is sized for l/2-in. CPVC, 1/2-in. PVC, or 5/8-in. ID tube
connection.
Drain pipe and fittings must conform to ANSI standards and
ASTM D1785 or D2846. CPVC or PVC cement and primer must
conform to ASTM D2564 or F493. In Canada, use CSA or ULC
certified schedule 40 CPVC or PVC drain pipe, fittings, and
cement.
When a condensate pump is required, select a pump which is
approved for condensing furnace applications. To avoid conden-
sate spillage, select a pump with an overflow switch.
Furnace condensate is mildly acidic, typically in the pH range of
3.2 to 4.5. Due to corrosive nature of this condensate, a condensate
38 pH neutralizing filter may be desired. Check with local
authorities to determine if a pH neutralizer is required.
B. APPLICATION
The furnace, A/C, and humidifier drains may be combined and
drained together. The A/C drain must have an external, field-
supplied trap prior to the furnace drain connection. All drain
connections (furnace, A/C, or humidifier) must be terminated into
an open or vented drain as close to the respective equipment as
possible to prevent siphoning of the equipment's drain.
See Fig. 40 for example of possible field drain attachment using
1/2-in. CPVC or PVC tee for vent and A/C or humidifier drain
connection.
Outdoor draining of the furnace is permissible if allowed by local
codes. Caution should be taken when freezing ambient may freeze
drain pipe and prohibit draining.
