Drain Pan Installation

NOTE: THE ACCESSORY DRAIN PAN (VPDP1) MUST BE INSTALLED BEFORE INSTALLING THE UNIT.
1. The accessory drain pan has two (2) provisions (left & right) for connecting an external condensate drain.
2. A field supplied condensate drain system must be connected to one of the two ¾" FPT connections.
3. The remaining connection must be plugged using the ¾" pipe plug (provided) and field supplied Teflon tape or pipe joint
compound.
4. Failure to follow these procedures may result in serious property damage.
5. This is the primary drain pan. A field supplied secondary condensate pan is recommended and may be required.
Check with your local and national codes.

STEP 1: CUT OPENING IN
GASKET
Remove an 8" portion of the weather seal
gasket from the bottom left surface of the
plenum.
To remove: Cut the gasket in the lower left
corner of the plenum. Then make a
second cut 8" from the left corner. The
gasket should peel away from the plenum
leaving a clean mounting surface (See
detail A).
STEP 2: SEAL AND SET
PAN
Prior to placing the drain pan into the
opening run a 1/4" bead of sealant the
entire width of the removed gasket.
The secondary overflow lip must
extend into the plenum to prevent
water leaks. The pan should be moun-
ted against the 3/4" flange of the
plenum (See detail B).
