Method #2: Blowing out the Condensate Line with 30 PSI of Compressed Air using an Extended Tip. To get a better seal inside the tubing, wrap the end of the extended tip with electrical tape. Then, place the tip down into the trap and apply the compressed air to blow out the debris. Make sure to not apply excessive pressure because this could cause a pipe joint to separate and leak. When finished, fill the trap back up with water and replace the cap.
