Condensate drain to sewer vent
The heat pump condensate drains into a sewer vent. This is a common configuration in this area (although they usually install a p-trap). Am I correct in calling it out as improper. The p-trap will evaporate during heating use, correct? The manufacture (Ruud) info says not to connect to a closed sewer system. Any feedback is appreciated.
