It is the contractor's
responsibility to install
case(s) according to local
construction and health
codes.

The waste outlet is located off the center of the case on
one side allowing drip piping to be run lengthwise under
the fixture.
A 1-1/2" P-trap and threaded adapter are supplied with
each fixture. The P-trap must be installed to prevent air
leakage and insect entrance into the fixture.
NOTE: PVC-DWV solvent cement is recommended.
Follow the Hussmann’s instructions.

Poorly or improperly installed condensate drains can
seriously interfere with the operation of this refrigerator,
and result in costly maintenance and product losses.

1.
1.
Never use pipe for condensate drains smaller than
the nominal diameter of the pipe or P-trap supplied
with the case.
2.
When connecting condensate drains, the P-trap must
be used as part of the condensate drain to prevent
air leakage or insect entrance. Store plumbing system
floor drains should be at least 14" off the center of
the case to allow use of the P-trap pipe section.
Never use two water seals in series in any one line.
Double P-traps in series will cause a lock and prevent
draining.
3.
Always provide as much down hill slope (“fall”) as
possible; 1/8" per foot is the preferred minimum. PVC
pipe, when used, must be supported to maintain the
1/8" pitch and to prevent warping.
4.
Avoid long runs of condensate drains. Long runs
make it impossible to provide the “fall” necessary for
good drainage.
5.
Provide a suitable air break between the flood rim of
the floor drain and outlet of condensate drain. 1" is
ideal.
6.
Prevent condensate drains from freezing:
a. Do not install condensate drains in contact with
non-insulated suction lines. Suction lines should
be insulated with a nonabsorbent insulation ma-
terial such as Armstrong’s Armaflex.
b. Where condensate drains are located in dead air
spaces (between refrigerators or between a re-
frigerator and a wall), provide means to prevent
freezing. The water seal should be insulated to
prevent condensation.
