The section of the pipe that can be affected by frost must be heated by the heating cable to prevent freezing. Route the pipe downward from AMB 30. The outlet of the condensation water pipe must be at a depth that is frost free or alternatively indoors (with reservation for local ordinances and regula- tions).
