CONDENSATE DRAIN
The condensate drain hose is routed down from the evaporator drain pan on the right side of the unit into the compressor compartment. There are three locations that the drain can exit the cabinet. For a stand pipe type of drain, the drain hose can exit the rear of the cabinet. There is adequate hose length to reach the floor on the right hand side of the unit.
If the drain is to be hard plumbed, there is a 3/4 inch pipe connection located on the right hand cabinet side near the rear and one on the cabinet rear panel. In these installations the drain tube is to be slipped over the pipe connection inside of the cabinet.

See Figures 9A, 9B and 9C.
NOTE: Whichever type of drain connection is used a “P” trap must be formed.
The side drain requires a water trap for proper drainage. See Figure 8A. The drain can be routed through the floor or through the wall. If the drain is to be routed through an unconditioned space, it must be protected from freezing. The drain line must be able to be removed from the unit if it is necessary to remove the unit from the wall.
