DANGER
The water in the condensate
neutralizer can cause severe
burns to the skin. Use extreme
caution when servicing the
condensate neutralizer. Wear
protective gloves and eyewear.
CAUTION
When a condensate
neutralization package
is installed, the pH of the
condensate discharge must
be measured on a regular
schedule to ensure the
neutralizing agent is active
and effective.
WARNING
If condensates are to be
discharged into building drain
piping materials that are subject
to corrosion, a neutralization
package must be used.
