9. Install the Free Air Vented Drain Lines
Furnishing and installing the drain line is the responsibility of the owner and/or installer. Figure 4-13
illustrates a drain layout recommended by Cleveland Range.
a. The drain lines must be installed in compliance with the Basic Plumbing Code of the Building
Officials and Code Administrators International, Inc. (BOCA), and the Food Service Sanitation
Manual of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and any state, provincial or local codes.
b. Do not install the steamer directly over a drain. Steam rising up out of the floor drain will
adversely affect operation, cooling air ventilation and may damage electrical components. (See
Figure 4-13)
c. The total length of pipe and number of bend fittings required to reach the open drain determines
the pipe size used to extend the drain line to an open drain.
xIf the drain outlet extension requires 6 feet or less of pipe, and no more than two elbows are
required, 1inch (or larger) pipe and fittings are acceptable.
xIf the drain outlet extension requires 6 to 12 feet of pipe, or requires three or more elbows, or is
installed on a Cleveland Range Model ES222824S stacked stand, 2 -inch (or larger) pipe and
fittings are required.
d. The drain line must have a gravity flow from the steamer drain outle t to the floor drain. Do not install
a trap in the drain line.
