Attaching tubes to the pump
□
Attach 3/8” clear vinyl tubing (2) to the check valve (1).
□
Secure with a 1/2” hose clamp (3) (not included).
□
Route the tubing up and away from the condensate pump (A).
□
Avoid compressing or kinking the tube.
NOTE: The tube route should be the shortest possible
distance from the pump to the building exterior or other
drain location. For best results, the distance that the water
must go UP should be shorter than the distance that it goes
DOWN.

NOTE: Check local codes for water discharge
requirements.
NOTE: When using rigid tubing such as PVC, the bottom
should be cut to a 45º angle.
If installing to a condensing furnace or humidifier, a “P” trap
(not included) should be used. This will prevent air or incidental
steam contact with the pump as this pump is UL rated for
temperatures only up to 140ºF.

Connecting the power
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock! This pump must be
properly connected to power following the National Electric
Code (NEC). Never cut the cord or ground plug. Failure to
follow these warnings will void the warranty and could
result in a fatal electric shock.
□ Plug the condensate pump (A) into a properly grounded
3-prong 120 volt ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
outlet. A green LED (1) will indicate if power is available.
NOTE: Do not plug the condensate pump (A) into an
extension cord or connect to a power source that may be
inadvertently or automatically turned off.
