7.5 Condensate Drain Piping

Boiler is factory equipped with a condensate trap.

Additional trap is not required and should NOT be used.

• Use supplied 1/2” PVC tee, transition to ½” pipe and

fittings for PVC condensate drain line.

• The ½” diameter schedule 40 PVC or CPVC condensate

drain and pipe fittings must conform to ANSI standards

and ASTM D 1785 or D2846.

• Schedule 40 PVC or CPVC cement and primer must

conform to ASTM D2564 or F493. In Canada, use

CSA or ULC certified schedule 40 PVC drain pipe and

cement.

• Condensate pump with reservoir (not furnished) to

remove condensate to drain line (sanitary line) above

boiler if floor drain is not available or is inaccessible.

7.6 Filling Condensate Trap with Water

On initial start up manually fill condensate trap with water.
Following are steps required to initially fill condensate trap

for start up. Steps are only required at initial start up or if

maintenance requires draining of condensate trap.

1.

Remove vent drain line from CPVC vent pipe. Pour

about 1 cup of cold tap water into vent drain line.

2.

Excess water should go through overflow and out

through condensate drain line. Verify proper operation

of drain line (or external condensate pump if used).

3.

Reinstall vent drain line.

7.7 Chilled Water Piping

Install Boiler, when used in connection with refrigeration

system, so chiller medium is piped in parallel with boiler

with appropriate valves to prevent chilled medium from

entering boiler.
Piping system of hot water boiler connected to heating coils

located in air handling units where they may be exposed

to refrigerated air circulation must be equipped with flow

control valves or other automatic means to prevent gravity

circulation of boiler water during cooling cycle.
