External Drain (for new construction or unit replacement)

When using an external drain system, the condensate is removed through either of two drain holes on the back of the wall sleeve. Select the drain hole which best meets your drainage situation and install the drain kit. Seal off the other with a cover plate.

Drain Tube Installation

Cover Plate Installation

1.Peel the backing tape off the gaskets and apply the sticky side to one cover plate and one mounting plate as shown in Details A and B.

2.Place the drain tube through the gasket and the mounting plate with the flange toward the wall sleeve.

3.Attach the drain tube assembly to one of the two drain holes at the rear of the wall sleeve. The large flange on the mounting plate is positioned at the bottom of the sleeve facing toward the sleeve, Detail B. When the drain tube is positioned at the desired angle, tighten the screws.

NOTE: If the wall sleeve has not been installed, the drain tube must be rotated to a horizontal position until after the sleeve is installed. Tighten the mounting plate screws when the tube is in the proper position. Make certain that the four overflow slots at the rear of the wall sleeve are not blocked. (See the drawing below.)

4.Mount the foam gasket to the cover plate. Using two #10 x 1/2" sheet metal screws (provided), attach the cover plate to the remaining drain hole. Make certain the large flange on the plate is positioned at the bottom of the sleeve.

5.Discard the additional cover plate, gasket, machine screws, and locknuts.
