5.5.4CondensateDrain
▪Metalpipeworkisnotsuitableforuseincondensate
dischargesystems.
▪Thepipeshouldbeaminimumof21.5mmdiameterand
mustbesupportedusingsuitablyspacedclipsofthe
correctdesigntopreventsagging.
▪Itisadvisablethatthefulllengthofcondensatepipeisrun
internallyandpreferablybelessthan3meters.
▪Internalrunsgreaterthan3metersorrunsincoldareas
shoulduse32mmwaterpipe.
▪Externalrunsmustbeaminimumof32mmandfully
insulatedwithmaterialsuitableforexternaluse.
▪Iftheboileristtedinanunheatedlocationtheentire
condensatedischargepipeshouldbetreatedasanexternal
runandsizedandinsulatedaccordingly.
▪Inallcasesdischargepipemustbeinstalledtoaiddisposal
ofthecondensate.Toreducetheriskofcondensatebeing
trapped,asfewbendsandttingsaspossibleshouldbe
usedandanyburrsoncutpiperemoved.
▪Whendischargingcondensateintoasoilstackorwaste
pipetheeffectsofexistingplumbingmustbeconsidered.
Ifsoilpipesorwastearesubjectedtointernalpressure
uctuationswhenWC’sareushedorsinksemptiedthen
backpressuremayforcewateroutoftheboilertrapand
causeappliancelockout.
▪Aboilerdischargepumpisavailablewhichwilldispose
ofbothcondensateandhightemperaturewaterfromthe
reliefvalve.Ithasamaximumheadof5meters.Followthe
instructionssuppliedwiththepump.
▪CondensateDrainPipe‘TraceHeating’elementsare
availableinvariouslengths,1,2,3&5meters.Wherethe
drainisbetween3&5metersa5meterskitcanbeused
and‘doubleback’uponitself.
▪Itispossibletottheelementexternallyonthecondensate
drainorinternallyasdetailedintheinstructionsprovided.
▪Thettingofa‘TraceHeating’elementisnotasubstitutefor
correctinstallationofthecondensatedrain.Allrequirements
inthissectionmuststillbeadheredto.
Note:Ifanycondensatepipeworkistobeinstalledexternally
thenitshouldbekepttoaminimumandbeinsulatedwitha
waterproofinsulationandhaveacontinuousfall.
Thetotallengthofexternalpipeusedshouldnotexceed3
meters.
DANGER
Riskofdeathfromescapinguegases!
TheCondensatedrainpipeworkforthesiphonmustnotbe
connectedtightlytowastewaterpipingbecause,otherwise,
theinternalcondensatetrapmaybedrainedfullyandue
gasmayescape.
Theboilercondensatetrapincludedaseal,thereforeitis
unnecessarytoinstallanairbreakandtrapinthedischarge
pipework.
▪Thecondensateoutletwillaccept21.5mm(3/4")plastic
overowpipe.Itishighlyrecommendedthatthisdischarge
internallyintothehouseholddrainagesystem.Wherethis
isnotpossibleprovidingeverypossibleprecautionistaken
topreventfreezing.
▪Ensurethedischargeofcondensatecomplieswithany
nationalorlocalregulationsinforce.
▪Thedischargepipeshouldberuninaproprietarydrainpipe
materiale.g.PVC,PVC-U,ABS,PVC-CorPP.
MinimumØ21.5mm
Belessthan3M
