6 - If unit will be started immediately upon completion of
installation, prime trap per procedure outlined in Unit
Start-Up section.
Condensate line must slope downward away from the
trap to drain. If drain level is above condensate trap,
condensate pump must be used. Condensate drain
line should be routed within the conditioned space to
avoid freezing of condensate and blockage of drain
line. If this is not possible, a heat cable kit may be
used on the condensate trap and line. Heat cable kit
is available from Lennox in various lengths; 6 ft. (1.8m)
- kit no. 26K68; 24 ft. (7.3m) - kit no. 26K69; and 50 ft.
(15.2m) - kit no. 26K70.

IMPORTANT
When combining the furnace and evaporator coil
drains together, the A/C condensate drain outlet must
be vented to relieve pressure in order for the furnace
pressure switch to operate properly.
