6. NPT drain connection 3 If the unit is located where the drain line must be elevated you may elevate the line up to 6 feet 1 8 m providing the run does not exceed 15 feet 4 6 m and water pressure at conditioner is not less than 40 psi 2 76 bar You may elevate an additional 2 feet 61 cm for each additional 10 psi 0 69 bar 4 Where the drain line is elevated but empties into a drain below the level of the control valve form a 7 inch 18 cm loop at the far end of the line so that the bottom of the loop is level with the drain line connection This will provide an adequate siphon trap 5 Where the drain empties into an overhead sewer line a sink type trap must be used IMPORTANT Never insert drain line into a drain sewer line or trap Always allow an air gap between the drain line and the wastewater to prevent the possibility of sewage being back siphoned into the conditioner Right Way Figure 3 Note Standard commercial practices have been expressed here Local codes may require changes to these suggestions Brine Line Connection It will be necessary to install the brine line to the brine fitting on the valve 3 8 inch NPT Be sure all fittings and connections are tight Overflow Line Connection In the absence of a safety overflow and in the event of a malfunction the BRINE TANK OVERFLOW will direct overflow to the drain instead of spilling on the floor where it could cause considerable damage
