DRAINAGE OF CONDENSATE FROM FURNACE

!WARNING:

The condensate produced by the furnace must be drained. Do not connect a water supply to the drainage hose of the furnace.

NOTE: The condensate drain should be pro- tected from freezing when in unheated spaces.

The furnace is supplied with an internal conden- sate drain trap.

!CAUTION:

Do not install additional traps in the condensate drain.

The condensate drain may exit through the left side panel, the right side panel, or through the left or right hole on the bottom panel. (See Figure 21). Ensure that the flexible drain hose is not kinked.

The condensate should drain from the plastic collector box (location A in Figure 21) as drop- lets or a small stream. If you notice the furnace has operated for more than 5 minutes without draining or the red status light on the control board is pulsing a 2-blink code follow the steps below.

Note: If terminations meet- ing these vertical require- ments exceed the maximum height for safe transit, the vent and combustion air in- takes may be shipped with the home for assembly on site. The furnace must be labeled to notify the installer/ user not to use the furnace until the vent and combus- tion air intake terminations are installed.
