Fire and explosion hazard. Do not use this pump to pump flammable or explosive liquids. Use pump only with liquids compatible with pump component materials. Do not use pump in explosive atmospheres.

Risk of flooding. If for any reason property damage or personal injury can result from an inoperative or leaking pump, an auxiliary switch backup system and/or an alarm should be installed with pump.

Make sure that the tubing to the pump intake is fastened securely so that it cannot come out of the pump intake port. Check for local code requirements. You must com- ply with codes.

INSTALLATION

Electrical shock and carbon monoxide hazards. When mounting the pump on the side of the furnace, make sure that the mounting holes clear the heat exchanger and all wiring. The mounting screw for the pump should touch only the pump reservoir flange and the exterior sheet metal on the furnace. If in doubt or if this is confusing, consult a qualified HVAC serviceman or the furnace manufacturer.

Cut tubing at an angle so that bottom of reservoir doesn't close it.

Be sure tubing does not interfere with float.

3Run tubing as shown from hose barb on pump discharge to floor drain or laundry tub.

Check local codes for discharge water requirements. Run the discharge line to a point outside the house if possible. To do this easily, you may be able to run the condensate discharge line out through the wall along the AC freon line. Use the existing line if possible (when replacing an existing pump).

Clamping the plastic discharge line to the check valve with a 1/2" hose clamp (purchase separately) will help to keep it in place, especially with older tubing (plastic tubing tends to harden as it gets older).

Common locations for the end of the discharge line are:

A. Out a window or along the air conditioner freon line to the outdoors.

B. To a floor drain (leave an air gap between the end of the tube and the drain).

C. To a laundry tub or sink (leave an air gap above the tub drain).
