CONDENSATE DRAIN

There are two condensate drain connections from the condenser drain pan (compressor area). These are visible from the rear of the unit. Factory installed tubing connects the two drains at a tee connection and then a single drain hose with a barbed hose connector carries the condensate to the draining option of your choice. Enough tubing is provided to reach all drain options and can be cut down in length.

The unit is shipped from the factory with the drain line on the left-hand side as you look at the rear of the unit. The tubing can be removed from the drain connections and flipped for a right-hand drain. See Figure 10.

The drain can be routed directly through the floor or through the wall. There are also two optional drain locations in the lower rear back panel. See Figure 8.

The I-TEC design does not require a trap in the condensate disposal tubing. Check your local codes to see if a “P” trap is required.

For a stand pipe floor drain or through the wall, there is adequate hose length to reach anything located behind the unit. The lower rear portion of the cabinet is recessed approximately 4 inches allowing room for a “P” trap to be installed with the cabinet flush with the wall. Keep in mind, the drain line must be able to be removed from the unit if necessary to remove the unit from the wall.

Access plates are located on the rear of the unit for servicing the drain trap. See Figure 10. If the drain line is to be routed through an unconditioned space, it must be protected from freezing.

The condensate drain line can also be routed back into the unit through either the right-hand or left-hand optional drain locations on the rear of the unit. The hole is covered by insulation on the inside of the unit and will have to be cut away. Located inside the unit, about 12 inches in from the front on both the left and right side are drain holes in the bottom of the base. These holes are covered with insulation and are not visible. They are located very close to the side panels and can be found by pressing down on the insulation. Cut insulation away to expose the hole. A drain trap can now be installed inside of the cabinet, and the drain hose routed directly through the floor.

Once the I-TEC is installed, the rear drains exiting the condenser section can be easily serviced with removal of the pre-painted metal sides (lift-off doors, remove four [4] screws to remove side).

If side access is not available, the drain lines and trap can be serviced by removing either one of the drain access panels on the rear of the unit (in the ventialtion package area.) See Figure 10.
