intervals
NOTES:
A) Condensate trap for vent pipe must be a minimum of 6
inches in height.
B) Condensate
trap for vent and inlet pipe must be connected
into a condensate drain pump; an open or vented drain; or
it can be connected
to the outlet hose of the furnace's
condensate
trap. Outdoor draining
of the furnace
and coil
condensate
is permissible
if allowed by local codes.
Caution should be taken to prevent drains from freezing
or
causing slippery conditions
that could lead to personal
injury. Excessive draining of condensate
may cause
saturated ground conditions
that may result in damage to
plants.
C) The condensate
trap should be primed at initial start up
prior to heating season operation.
