Condensate Drain
(Available on some models)
A condensate drain is provided to divert excess water when air conditioner is installed over a doorway or
sidewalk.
1, Pry cap plug from the condensate drain (located on underside of bottom pan). Use a 3/8" pipe tap
and fully thread the condensate drain (Fig. 18).
2, Screw a 3/8" pipe fitting into the condensate drain.The fitting should be protruding approximately
1/2"above the bottom pan when fully threaded into the condensate drain (Fig. 19).
3, If an open drain source is used to dispose of condensate, plastic or rubber tubing may be run directly
from the pipe fitting to the open drain source. If closed drain source (internal structural plumbing) is
used, a "P" trap must be between the 3/8" pipe fitting and the closed drain source (Fig. 20).
To closed drain source
Do not remove the cap plug, unless the condensate drain is used.
