Make a water trap loop in the tube to prevent
the unit from drawing unpleasant odors from
the drain source. Make sure this loop is
situated BELOW the «T» as shown. This will
prevent water from being drawn back up into
the unit in case of negative pressure. Run
the tube to the floor drain or to an alternative
drain pipe or pail. Be sure there is a slight
slope for the run-off.
