CAUTION
Makesurethatdrainpipingisproperlyroutedandinsulatedinordertopreventbothleaksandcondensation.
IMPORTANT
Drainshouldhaveaslopeofatleast¼inchperfootandshouldbeapprovedcorrosion-resistantpipe.Youmustconrm
operationofeverydrainandpumpinthesystemaspartofthecommissioningprocedure.
1. Makeawater-tightconnectionbetweentheeld-providedcondensatedrainextensionandtheprovidedexibledrain
piping.
2. Conrmproperslope(notlessthan1/4inchperfoot)androutingofcondensatelinestoensuremoistureisdrainedaway
fromtheindoorunit.
3. Drainshouldbeasshortaspossibleandshouldnothaveanydroopsorkinksthatwouldrestrictcondensateowand
shallbeapprovedresistantpipe.Theremustbea2-inchspacebetweentheendofthecondensatedrainandthenal
terminationpoint(ground,opendrain,etc.)toensurethatthelinewilldrainfreely.
4. Afterthesysteminstallationiscomplete,thecondensatedrainlinemustbecheckedforleaksandproperdrainage.Ifa
eld-providedcondensatepumphasbeeninstalled,itmustbecheckedtoensureproperoperation.Thischeckispartof
thecommissioningsequence.
