Make a water trap loop in the tube to prevent the unit from drawing unpleasant odors from the drain source. Make sure this loop is situated BELOW the “T” as shown. This will prevent water from being drawn back up into the unit in case of negative pressure. Run the tube to the floor drain or to an alternative drain pipe or pail. Be sure there is a slight slope for the run-off.
