Install the drain hose included and run it to a drain or a pail. This unit may generate a large amount of water
in cooler weather. It is necessary to install the drain hose properly to prevent water damage and/or material
damage.
• Cut the appropriate length of drain tubing (see illustration
at right).
• Connect the tubing to the provided adaptor.
• Make a water trap loop in the tube to prevent the unit
from drawing unpleasant odors from the drain source.
• Add water in the loop to prevent noise or hiss.
• Make sure there is a distance of at least 2" between the
unit and the tubing loop (see illustration at right).
• Using tie wraps provided, attach the tubing as illustrated.
• Run the tube to the floor drain or to an alternate drain
pipe or pail.
• IMPORTANT: If using a pail to collect water, place the tube
end approximately 1" inside the pail in order to prevent
water from being drawn back up into the unit.
