 CAUTION
Do not use copper tubing or existing copper condensate 
lines for drain line..
6 -   If unit will be started immediately upon completion 
of installation, prime trap per procedure outlined in 
Unit Start-Up section.
Condensate line must slope downward away from the trap 
to drain. If drain level is above condensate trap, conden-
sate pump must be used. Condensate drain line should 
be routed within the conditioned space to avoid freezing 
of condensate and blockage of drain line. If this is not pos-
sible, a heat cable kit may be used on the condensate 
trap and line. Heating cable kit is available from Lennox 
in various lengths; 6 ft. (1.8m) - kit no. 26K68 and 24 ft. 
(7.3m) - kit no. 26K69.
