DRAIN INSERT
DRAIN INSTALLATION
The drain outlet on the dehumidifier can be hard piped using a 3/4” PVC Slip x 3/4” MNPT fitting and 3/4” nominal drain tubing or the provided
3/4” MNPT x 3/4” hose barb fitting. 3/4” clear PVC tubing can be used to drain the dehumidifier. Always maintain a constant downward slope
from the dehumidifier to the drain and do not allow soft tubing to curl up which may result in air lock.
NOTE: PTFE thread seal tape is recommended for the threaded connection and hand tighten only. If hard pipe is used, PVC primer and cement
is recommended for the slip fit connection. Remove drain insert before priming and gluing in the PVC fitting. Replace drain insert after PVC glue
has fully dried.
CAUTION
Do not damage drain cover. The drain cover is a critical feature of the dehumidifier drain management system.
WARNING
Running the dehumidifier without the drain insert can lead to condensate leaks. See Figure 5.
