WHAT IS CONDENSATE?
Condensate is produced when the ue gas temperature of a gas red boiler, water heater or
furnace drops below approximately 130°. The condensate is made up of several ingredients
and will generally have a pH of between 2.9 and 4. At this level, it is considered acidic and can
cause serious damage to piping systems, treatment facilities and septic systems.
WHY IT’S ESSENTIAL FOR EVERY CONDENSING
APPLIANCE TO INCLUDE A CONDENSATE NEUTRALIZER
A fully condensing appliance can produce condensate at the
rate of approximately .75 gallons per hour per 100,000 BTUs.
Most, if not all, plumbing codes prohibit the disposal of acidic
or hazardous waste without treatment. Untreated condensate
can cause serious damage to drainage piping and ttings. While
condensing gas equipment condensate is acidic, it is the amount
produced that is of concern. Condensate from these appliances
can produce hundreds to thousands of gallons per year
depending on size and operating hours.
