a)The drain hose should be slanted downward to the outdoors. (Fig. 28)
b)Never form a trap in the course of the hose.
c)If the drain hose will run in the room, insulate the hose with insulation* so that chilled condensation will not damage furniture or floors. (Fig. 29)
*Foamed polyethylene or its equivalent is recom- mended.
WARNING Do not supply power to the unit or operate it until all tub- ing and wiring to the outside unit are completed.
