Condensate drain
During operation, condensate will form in the external unit’s evaporator, and which has to be run off to a drain. From the evaporator
condensation tray is mounted a 700mm hose which is led to the drain.
The condensation drain must be insulated against frost, although a 1.5 m heating cable Ø25 / 4mm is included, which also helps to keep
the condensation drain frost-free. The heating cable starts at an outdoor temperature < 2ºC.
Draining the condensate off into gravel ensures that it is run off into frost-free subsoil:
If the external unit is located close to the building, the condensate can be drained into a downpipe. Remember to install a water trap:
The condensation water can be passed directly to the surface water well.
ATTENTION
The condensate must be directed away in a way that avoids damaging the building.
ATTENTION
Condensate drainage from the outdoor section must be dimensioned so that it can drain up to 6 liters / hour.
