2.3 CONNECTING THE DRAIN (HRV ONLY)
Install the drain hose included and run it to a drain or a pail. This unit may generate a large amount of water in cooler weather. It is
necessary to install the drain hose properly to prevent water damage and/or material damage.
CAUTION
• Cut the appropriate length of drain tubing (see illustrations below).
• Connect the tubing to the provided adaptor.
• Make a water trap loop in the tube to prevent the unit from drawing unpleasant odors from the drain source.
• Add water in the loop to prevent noise or hiss.
• Make sure there is a distance of at least 2" between the unit and the tubing loop (see illustration below).
• Using the tie wrap provided, attach the tubing as illustrated below.
• Run the tube to the floor drain or to an alternate drain pipe or pail.
• IMPORTANT: If using a pail to collect water, place the tube end approximately 1” inside the pail in order to prevent water from being
drawn back up into the unit.
