External condensate

[Mgrant]

If having to have the condensate discharge externally, Is 32mm 1.25inc or 1.5 inch 40mm waste pipe best? The instruction say a minimum of 32mm.

 

[Chalked]

Always . The bigger the better!

 

[ShaunCorbs]

bigger always best but depending on length of run i wouldn't want to go really over 3m unless frost protection is present

 

[plumben]

i always use 40mm/1.5" even if its just a short external run

 

[Mgrant]

Its only a 300mm run. Is that because with a bigger pipe there is less chance of freezing?

 

[townfanjon]

Nah , 32 mm defo ok

 

[townfanjon]

Sorry yes, personally I have never seen any bigger
