CONDENSATE DRAIN OPTIONS
HPAC 2.0 is equipped with a pump and spray head which sprays the collected condensate on to the heat exchanger coil in
cooling mode. This evaporates the condensate, eliminating the need for a condensate drain. In heating mode, or if used to
cool in low ambient temperatures (below 73.5°F) this procedure is not feasible and therefore a condensate drain is required.
Determine whether the condensate drain will be located:
In-the-wall Drain: This is the best type of drain where it is installed by a plumber inside the wall
Direct exterior Drain: This is the easiest type of drain where the condensate drips straight outside.
Note: The unit does not drain the condensate directly into the drain pipe, but rather it collects into a lightly heated collection
pan (to eliminate icing up of the liquid) where a solenoid valve controls the flow of the condensate from the internal collection
tray to the drain pipe once the maximum level has been reached.
STEP 1 Have licensed plumber install a PVC drain pipe with a minimum 3/4” inside diameter and a 45 Degree
fitting at the top. The mouth of the 45 degree fitting should be lined up with the condensate hole on the
template
STEP 2 Test the drain by pouring water into it
STEP 3 Cut down the attached rubber drain pipe, so that at least 4 inches of rubber pipe will fit inside the
internal PVC drain.
STEP 4 Gently push the attached rubber drain inside the internal PVC drain
STEP 5 Check to make sure that the rubber pipe is snugly inside the PVC pipe and it will not “pop out”.
NOTICE
When connecting the condensate drain, be careful not to squeeze the
rubber hose
IN-THE-WALL CONDENSATE DRAIN
For optimum performance and aesthetics, when possible use an internal wall drain.
