Condensate Drain - Ferroli JOLLY Plus 2 VERSIONE VM-F Installation Manual

INSTALLATION

Condensate drain

The condensate drain system must be appropriately sized (pipe internal diameter min . 16 mm) and the pipe positioned
so as to always maintain a certain slope of never less than 1% .
With vertical installation the discharge pipe is connected directly to the drain tray, placed at the bottom on the side
shoulder, under the plumbing connections .
With horizontal installation the discharge pipe is connected to the one already present on the unit .
- If possible, run the condensate directly into a gutter or into a "white water" drain .
- When discharging into the drainage system, it is advisable to create a trap to prevent bad odours rising up into the
room . The curve of the trap must be lower than the condensate tray .
- When discharging the condensate into a container, it must remain open to the atmosphere and the pipe must not be
immersed in water, avoiding adhesion and back pressure which would hinder the free flow.
- A pump must be fitted if a height difference, which would hinder the flow of condensate, has to be overcome:
- for vertical installation fit the pump under the side drainage tray;
- for the horizontal installation position of the pump must be decided according to the specific needs.
In any case, refer to the specific instructions included in the condensate elimination pump kit.
After installation, it is advisable to check the proper flow of condensate by pouring very slowly (about 1/2
litre of water in about 5-10 minutes) in the collection tray .
Fig .1
Fitting the condensate drain device in vertical version
Connect to the condensate tray drain union (Fig.1 ref. A) a tube for outflow
of the liquid (Fig .1 ref . B), adequately securing it . Check that the drip guard
extension (Fig .1 ref . C) is present and correctly installed .
Fitting the condensate drain device in horizontal version
- make sure the "L" pipe and the rubber hose are properly connected to the
tray (Fig . 2 ref . A) .
- insert the side of the unit holding the pipe to the front grille .
- permanently close the side, making sure the pipe is secured in the recess
on the side (Fig .2 ref . B) .
N .B . For horizontal installation, observe the following instructions:
- make sure the unit is installed perfectly level, or slightly inclined
towards the condensate discharge;
- properly insulate the flow and return pipes up to the mouth of the unit, so as to prevent dripping of
condensate outside of the tray;
- insulate the entire length of the condensate tray drain pipe .
