90+ Furnace Condensate into Waste Water

Addendum / Correction Ric Mayhan; Director, Plumbing & Natural Gas Section, Protective Health Codes; updated drawings for disposing condensate into the Waste Water System through the clothes washer box. The NewsMagazine made a mistake in the previous version. Please remember that this work is plumbing and the HVAC license does not permit our industry to tie into or install a washer box. According to Director Mayham, we can tie into a riser installed by a plumber. We appreciate the Plumbing Department providing correct drawings. Also remember that disposing condensate into the Waste Water system requires approval from that department.

We appreciate those that built the previous version of a 90+ condensate disposal into the waste water system. The mock up and drawing were designed based on the information that was available at the time. We regret any confusion created by the previous version of the article.
