installation
ii) Connecting into the waste system of the building such as a
washing maching or sink trap. The connection must be
upstream of the washing machine/sink. If the connection
is down stream of if the waste trap then an additional trap
giving a minimum water seal of 75mm and an air break must be
incorporated in the pipe run, as above.
iii) Terminating into a gully, below the grid level but above the
water level
iv) Into a soakaway
Note: If any condensate pipework is to be installed externally
then it should be kept to a minimum and be insulated with a
waterproof insulation and have a continuous fall. The total length
of external pipe used should not exceed 3 metres.
Some examples of the type of condensate terminations can be
found below.
1. Internal termination of codensate drainage pipe to internal
stack.
2. External terminaton of condensate drainage pipe via internal
discharge branch (e.g. sink waste) and condensate siphon.
3. External termination of condensate drainage pipe via internal
discharge branch (e.g. sink waste - proprietary tting).
