Condensate removal ("WS","WE" & "WY" models)
If you desire to drain condensate from the basepan during unit operation, this unit is provided with a drain nipple that can be
attached to the basepan. You must provide a 3/8" outside diameter thin-wall plastic or copper tube which will attach to the drain
nipple. Follow the instructions below:
STEP 1.
Find the drain plate on the rear of the basepan and remove it. (See Figure 13).
STEP 2.
Remove the knockout in the lower right side of the rear grille. Slide the chassis into the "WSC" Sleeve so that the drain
nipple extends through the knockout.
STEP 3.
Slide the tubing inside the drain nipple.
If the chassis must be removed from the sleeve for service, remove the clamped drain hose before sliding the chassis out of the
sleeve.
Alternate drain kits
"DK" (Drain Kit)
In the event that the outdoor temperature drops below 37°F,
any water that re mains in the chas sis basepan is drained into
the sleeve pan on "WE" and "WY" models to prevent freezing.
(NOTE: In the cooling mode of the "WS", "WE" and "WY"
models, condensate over flow is possible in very humid
climates). For these particular in stanc es, an op tion al drain kit
(Ac ces so ry #DK) is available for water removal.
