Condensate Pump Drain Line

This product is designed to automatically pump condensate this product is designed to automatically pump condensate produced by high efficiency boilers and humidifiers up to 22 ft.

Condensate pump drain line.

A unique drain line for mini split units. Over time it can become trapped in your condensate drain line causing blockage. Enter the condensate line which essentially functions as a drain line. Diversitech cp 22 series pumps beat the industry standard of 20 ft.

If the condensate drain line is clogged you will need to use a wet dry vacuum or a special pumpto unclog the line. Condensate lines are typically made of plastic commonly pvc or sometimes metal although plastic is prefered. It connects directly to the hvac unit and leads outdoors often through an exterior wall. Its job is to efficiently funnel condensation away from your hvac unit.

The condensate drain line connected to your ac unit plays a vital role in the effective operation of your entire system. This will kill any algae mold or mildew that has formed in the pipe. Condensate switches imc 307 2 3 states that all hvac equipment that produces condensate must have either a secondary drain line or a condensate overflow switch a secondary drain pan with a secondary drain line or condensate switch or some combination of these installations should be used to prevent overflow if the primary drain line blocks. Mini split condensate drain.

Ultimately your condensate line is responsible for removing the condensation that s produced by the evaporator coil draining it from the air handler to the outside of your house. Just pour a cup of bleach in the drain line s access opening near the indoor air conditioning unit. Signs the ac drain line is clogged as indoor air circulates through the evaporator coil dust dirt and other airborne particles can be trapped by moisture. Watch this video to find out more.

Build up of this debris can be carried off as condensate drains from the coil. Suitable for use with condensate from air conditioning applications. This large diameter drain line is typical for mini split installations. If you want to clean and maintain your condensate drain line and or condensate pump there are a few ways to do it.

1 if you have a condensate pump like i do the service tech that installed my hvac system told me to simply add 2 to 3 tablespoons of bleach to the pump reservoir once or twice a year while it is still in operation. Vertically once the level of condensate in the tank reaches a specified level.
