4. Locate the black rubber plug on the side of
the unit near the refrigerant lines. Carefully
remove the plug slowly twisting it side to
side while pulling outward. The plug fits
snug so be careful not to tear or damage it.
5. Connect the condensation drain hose to the
drain fitting where the rubber drain plug was
removed. Twist the swivel clip into place
securing the hose. Slightly pull the hose to
verify it is securely connected, ensuring a
leak-free connection.
6. Insert the plug into the drain fitting where
the condensation hose was removed
from on the right side of the unit. Ensure
the plug is inserted all the way past the
ribs to ensure a tight seal free of leaks.
7. Locate the 5 ft. (1.5m) condensation drain hose that is packaged with the unit. Attach it to
the drain hose that is already connected to the indoor unit. Ensure the two hoses make a
good connection. Wrap the joint with waterproof tape to ensure the hoses do not come
apart.
8. It is recommended to wrap the condensation drain hose, that will be housed indoors, with
foam pipe insulation to prevent extra condensation buildup.
9. Bundle the refrigerant line set and the condensation drain hose together using vinyl tape.
Be sure and attach the drain hose to the underside of the refrigerant pipes.
Make sure
that the condensation
drain hose is at the bottom of the bundle.
Putting the drain hose at the top of the
bundle can cause the drain pa
n to overflow,
which may lead to fire or water damage
.
