Condensate Coordination at HVAC Equipment

Protect the drain connection, required slope, trap, cleanout, insulation, and service access while routing duct and supports around equipment.

Stop if

• The condensate route needs [direction/slope]. Can we lock the drain and service space before I finalize this duct and support layout?

Watch out

• Do not crowd the drain connection, block trap removal, or force gravity piping to dodge a duct route after the equipment is set.

Check

• Identify drain connection and direction
• Confirm trap and slope space
• Keep duct supports out of the piping route
• Allow cleanout and pan access
• Coordinate insulation and ceiling access

Steps

• Identify drain connection and direction
• Confirm trap and slope space
• Keep duct supports out of the piping route
