This 2 litre Condensate Tank Pump from Little Giant automatically removes condensation from air conditioners and high-efficiency gas furnaces. The pump turns on by a float/switch mechanism when approximately 1.6 inches of water is collected in the tank. The pump then turns off when the tank drains to approximately 1.2 inches. A safety overflow switch activates when water in the tank rises to approximately 2.2 inches, turning off the thermostat or turning on an alarm.

Did you know?...
Condensate is formed within the boiler and flue due to the low back end temperature and for every 1 kw of boiler output a volume of up to 0.1 litres of condensate is produced per hour. This will typically result in volumes of around 800 - 1,000 litres ever year!
Where a boiler has to be installed on internal walls or within basements, the use of a boiler condensate tank pump from Components Direct can be a ‘life-saver’ for you.
Where immediate access to a drain is not available, this pump can also offer advantages and it also offers flexibility if access to the drain is not straight-forward. The routing of the 10mm small bore hose can prove very flexible in connecting to the existing internal sink, washing machine, shower, bath, drain or vent stack.
Typical acidity levels of condensate in the UK are between pH 3 and 4. This acidic nature of condensate does have an impact on most mortar and will react chemically to break down the bond within the mortar. Condensate must never be allowed to drain untreated down the sides of buildings either above or below ground level.
