6 - CONDENSATE DRAINAGE
When connecting the condensate drain to the waste
water drain, it is essential:
- to follow all applicable codes and regulations co-
vering the disposal of condensate originating
from combustion appliances.
- to maintain a downwards slope towards the drain,
The condensate drainage tubes must ei-
!
ther be buried or pass through a heated
area to avoid any obstructions caused
by freezing.
The
condensate
should be checked regularly.
Before activating the boiler for the first
!
time, remove the condenser cover and
fill the siphon (rep 10) (fig. 2 - page 10 -
chapter III - TECHNICAL SPECIFICA-
TIONS).
Note:
- The maximum production of condensates is
1.5 l/h (with underfloor heating low temperature
load 100 % load) which amounts to an average
daily production of 10 litres of condensates for a
15 kW installation - This low flow rate does not re-
quire any specific treatment (extensive dilution in
the waste water). Nevertheless, if local regula-
tions require waste to have a neutral pH, a
condensate treatment tank must be installed
between the siphon and the waste water drain.

DANGER: Risk to life from flue gas poi-
!
soning!
A dry siphon or leaky condensate
connections can release flue gases into
the building.
Check the siphon fluid level regularly
and fill with water if needed.
