For as long as air conditioning has provided cool air to building occupants, so has managing the condensate that comes from those HVAC systems. While having to deal with condensate is nothing new, there are always opportunities to better manage it to ensure that systems run properly and avoid a costly overflow leading to water damage. Asurity™ condensate management products from DiversiTech® provide a complete line of products that offer redundancy in preventing and managing the effects of condensate.
In this post, we’re going to show you the latest products from Asurity’s condensate management line to help you manage all-too-common condensate issues:
As an HVAC technician, imagine being dispatched on a service call regarding a water issue and having to determine if the condensate pump is the culprit. Normally, you would have to take it apart to see if it is functional. With the ULTRACP-22, servicing the pump is easier than ever, because you can visually check the tank’s cleanliness and water level. No time is wasted that can be used to identify the real issue. This is truly a product designed with both the homeowner and technician in mind – available at your local HVAC distributor.
Clogged, slow, or stopped drain lines – it’s a common issue caused by the accumulation of slime in condensate lines that HVAC technicians service time and time again. There has never been a permanent solution to this issue until now. Introducing the Asurity Pro-Treat Line Guard: a copper and silver infused line that prevents slime from attaching to the inside of a condensate line and causing build up and blockages. This leave-in product preserves condensate flow while giving peace of mind against costly water damage or flooding.
As the only permanent solution designed to prevent clogged drain lines from slime buildup, the Pro-Treat Line Guard can easily be installed on any new or existing condensate drainage system to keep lines flowing freely for up to 2 years.
The new Asurity Waterless Trap, or WTRAP for short, is the smallest trap in the market. It’s designed to replace P-traps and other conventional traps for negative pressure systems. Its size reduces conventional trap height up to 60% and makes it easy to install in low profile setups that sit in tight or cramped spaces.
U and P-Traps are fine for sewer applications, where there is no air pressure differential between the living space and the sewer line on sinks, showers, or toilets. However, on an HVAC unit that has a fan that creates air pressure changes in the system, the water in the P-Trap can get sucked into the air handler causing a mess. P-traps on roofs in the winter can freeze and get destroyed, and in the summer can easily dry out in low humidity environments. The WTRAP will never dry out, freeze, or break due to changing climates. You can find the last trap you’ll ever need at your local HVAC distributor.
While best practice is to place the condensate pump in the secondary drain, situations occur that it’s just not possible. Now, you don’t have to compromise – the Asurity Condensate Pump Pan provides extra redundancy in a condensate management system to prevent flooding and water damage. The CP-PAN is designed with space for the Asurity Drain Pan Clip Switch (CS-3 sold separately) to shut down the system and prevent overflow. Since the pan is a fit for most condensate tank pumps, placing the CP-PAN in all HVAC systems is a no brainer.
Asurity is a complete condensate management system of pumps, switches, drain pans, accessories and treatments designed to create working, condensate management system solutions and peace-of-mind.
