2.3.5 CONDENSATE PIPING
The KC Boiler is designed to condense. 
Therefore, the installation site must include 
suitable provisions for condensate drainage or 
collection. A stainless steel condensate cup is 
separately packed within the unit’s shipping 
container. To install the condensate cup, 
proceed as follows: 
1. Remove the left side panel and only the left
half of the rear cover to provide access to the 
exhaust manifold and burner (Figure 2.6). 
2. Insert the 1-3/4 inch manifold drain hose into
the condensate cup. Allow the cup to rest on 
the floor directly beneath the manifold drain 
hole (Figure 2.6). 
3. Attach a length of 3/4 inch I.D. polypropylene
tubing to the condensate cup drain tube and
route it to a floor drain. If a floor drain is not 
available, a condensate pump can be used to 
remove the condensate to drain. The 
condensate drain line must be removable for 
routine maintenance. Therefore, DO NOT hard-
pipe. 
4. Replace the rear cover and side panel on the
unit.

2.4. GAS SUPPLY PIPING
The AERCO
Gas Fired Equipment Gas Compo-
nents and Supply Design Guide (GF-1030) must be 
consulted before any gas piping is designed or 
started. 
WARNING!
DO NOT USE MATCHES, CANDLES, 
FLAMES OR OTHER SOURCES OF 
IGNITION TO CHECK FOR GAS LEAKS
.
CAUTION!
Soaps used for gas pipe leak testing can be 
corrosive to metals. Piping must be rinsed 
thoroughly with clean water after leak 
checks have been completed.
NOTE:
All gas piping must be arranged so that it 
does not interfere with removal of any 
cover, inhibit service or maintenance, or 
prevent access between the Unit and walls, 
or another unit.
