• Use materials acceptable to authority having jurisdiction. In
absence of such authority:
• USA - PVC or CPVC per ASTM D1785/D2845 Cement or
primer per ASME D2564 or F493.
• Canada - CSA or ULC certied PVC/CPVC pipe, ttings
and cement.
• No external trap needed.
• Connect condensate hose, hose clamps, and coupling to
boiler drain trap as shown in gure 5-26.
• Connect condensate piping to 3/4" PVC for 205 or 1/2"
PVC for 150 as shown.
• Slope condensate drain pipe minimum 1/4" per foot
(21 mm/m) away from boiler.
• Support condensate pipe to eliminate any sages.
• Use eld source condensate pump, designated for use with
condensing boiler, if boiler located below disposal point.
• Condensate pump should have overow switch.
Condensate from Boiler is slightly acidic and may cause
property damage if overow.
• Field source condensate neutralizing kit as required
by authority having jurisdiction or for environmentally
friendly condensate disposal.
