1.5.3 Further installation details
• Condensate drain must be piped to within 1” of a drain or be connected to a
condensate pump.
• Drainage line must slope down to the drain at a pitch of 1/4” per foot so
condensate runs towards the drain.

relled as necessary.

retaining strap (IBC #152-
004) must be installed
