8. Route the tube from the condensate drain assem-
bly to a oor drain or condensate pump.
When selecting and installing a condensate
pump, ensure the pump is approved for use
with condensing appliances. The pump should
be equipped with an overflow switch to prevent
property damage from potential condensate
spillage.
9. The PRESTIGE Solo will typically produce a conden-
sate that is considered slightly acidic with a pH con-
tent below 4.0. Install a neutralizing lter if required
by authority having jurisdiction.
NOTICE
CHAPTER 5 - INSTALLING VENT/COMBUSTION AIR & CONDENSATE DRAIN
The condensate drain assembly must remain
filled with water. Extended periods of non
use or high temperature operation may allow
the water to evaporate. Periodically check
the water level in the condensate drain as-
sembly and fill with water as necessary. Fail-
ure to keep the condensate drain assembly
full of water can result in substantial proper-
ty damage, serious injury, or death.
The condensate drain assembly must remain
unobstructed and allow unrestricted flow of
condensate. The condensate should not be
subject to conditions where freezing could oc-
cur. If the condensate is subjected to freezing
or becomes obstructed , it can leak, resulting in
potential water damage to the boiler and sur-
rounding area.
