HVAC Condensate U Trap Drain Pan Accessories
In Florida’s hot and humid climate, HVAC systems generate large volumes of condensate year-round.
Without a properly designed condensate U-Trap, negative air pressure can prevent proper drainage, leading to:
-
Standing water in drain lines
-
Increased algae and slime buildup
-
Frequent drain clogs
-
Condensate pan overflow and water damage
A correctly installed HVAC condensate U-Trap ensures stable drainage, proper airflow balance, and long-term system reliability.
