Condensate drainage connection
If the temperature falls below the dew point, con-
densation will form on the finned condenser during
heating mode.
A condensate tray should be installed on the
underside of the unit to drain any condensate.
n
The condensate tray should have an incline of
min. 2%. This is the responsibility of the cus-
tomer. If necessary, fit vapour-diffusion-proof
insulation.
n
When operating the unit at outside tempera-
tures below 4
℃, ensure the condensate
drainage is laid to protect it against frost. The
lower part of the housing and condensate tray
is also to be kept frost free in order to ensure
permanent draining of the condensate. If nec-
essary, fit a pipe heater.
n
Following installation, check that the conden-
sate run off is unobstructed and ensure that the
line is durably leak tight.
