3. Limestone chips will get coated by neutral
salts (product of chemical reaction between
limestone and acidic condensate) and lose
neutralizing effectiveness over time. Therefore,
periodic condensate neutralizer maintenance
and limestone chip replacement must be
performed. A pH test or acid test kits are
available from HVAC/plumbing distributors and
should be used to measure condensate acidity
before/after neutralizer thus indicating a need
for service and chip replacement.
