Make a water trap loop in the tube to prevent
the unit from drawing unpleasant odors
from the drain source. Make sure this loop
is situated BELOW the “T” as shown. This
will prevent water from being drawn back up
into the unit in case of negative pressure.
Run the tube to the floor drain or to an
alternative drain pipe or pail. Be sure there
is a slight slope for the run-off.

punch the 2 knock-out sections
located at the bottom of the unit.
Refer to figure 14 for connecting the insulated duct to the hoods. Place the
“FRESH AIR INTAKE” sticker, provided in the installation kit, on corresponding
hood. An “Anti-Gust Intake Hood” should be installed in regions where a
lot of snow is expected to fall.
Make sure the intake hood is at least 6 feet (1.8 m) away from any of the
following:
•
dryer exhaust, high efficiency furnace vent, central vacuum vent
•
gas meter exhaust, gas barbecue-grill
•
any exhaust from a combustion source
•
garbage bin and any other source of contamination
