Modern condensing boilers produce water during operation. Proper condensate removal is essential for smooth operation.
Condensate siphon
The siphon prevents unwanted communication between the combustion chamber and the drainage system and must remain clean.
Clogged drainage
Dirt or incorrect slope can cause water backflow and alarms on the boiler.
Leaks
Poor pipe connection or wear on the siphon can cause water to pool under the unit.
Low temperatures
In external drainage sections, there is a risk of freezing if the installation has not been done correctly.
Maintenance
During servicing, the siphon is cleaned and inspected, and free flow to the drain is verified.
