All installations and services must be performed by qualified service personnel.
NOTICE: On the model series CHB1 / CDB1 the condensate disposal line must be on the same side as the flue outlet or, in the case of a horizontal application, the bottom of unit.
Drive two (2) #8 x 3/4 inch sheet metal screws with black protective coating (supplied with furnace) to attach the condensate trap to the furnace casing. Pilot holes are provided on both sides of the casing for mounting the trap.
NOTICE: When the CDB1 series unit is used in a horizontal application, the connection of the drain hose to the collector box must be changed from the standard,
a)Locate and disconnect the drain hose from the standard connection location at the collector box.
b)Locate and uncap the drain at the bottom (with the furnace lying on a side) of the collector box.
c)Connect the drain hose from Step (a) to the uncapped bottom drain from Step (b).
d)Close off the previous drain connection from Step (a) with the cap removed in Step (b).
3.Attach one (1) drain hose (a length of 11/16 inch O.D. clear, colorless tubing) to the front connection (on the model series CHB1) or the bottom connection (on the model series CDB1) of the condensing coil cover plate.
Insert the
Slip the free end of the drain hose over the hose barb on one (1) side of the plastic hose barb tee provided in the CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) thermoplastic condensate trap assembly. Secure the drain hose with the
4.Trial fit the second drain hose (a length of 11/16 inch O.D. clear, colorless tubing provided in the furnace parts package) from the hose barb on the bottom of the PVC exhaust vent drain tee to the plastic hose barb tee provided in the condensate trap assembly. Make sure the hose is long enough not to kink or be otherwise restricted once installed. Mark the minimum length of drain hose required for the application. Remove any extra length from the drain hose. Attach the drain hose to the hose barb on the other side of the condensate trap tee. Slip the other end of the drain hose on to the hose barb of the PVC drain tee assembly; refer to Figure 15 for an illustration. Use the
5.Plan, source, and install a condensate drain line using ½ inch diameter CPVC (chlorinated polyvinyl chloride) thermoplastic pipe and pipefittings. Route the line in the shortest possible manner to reach a nearby drain. Secure all joints using CPVC cement. For gravity drainage, the condensate drain line must maintain a minimum ¼ inch per foot downward slope toward the drain. The drain line must be watertight, supported, and secured such that it cannot be easily moved.
NOTICE: If an air conditioning condensate drain line is combined with the furnace condensate drain line, the air conditioning evaporator coil must have a separate trap installed ahead of the connection joint.
