Condensate produced by high-efficiency gas appliances is naturally acidic (pH 3–5). Left untreated, it corrodes copper pipes, cast iron drains, concrete floor drains, and damages septic tanks. What is the maximum BTU capacity for the CondensateRx kit? This kit is rated to treat condensate from condensing boilers, water heaters, and furnaces with gas inputs up to 440,000 BTU/hr. What plumbing connections are included in the box? The unit features 1/2-inch Female NPT threads and comes packed with adapters for 1/2-inch flexible hose barb and 3/4-inch PVC schedule 40 socket connections. Can this neutralizer be installed vertically? It is designed primarily for inline horizontal mounting, but the low-profile casing allows installation at an incline up to 30 degrees from horizontal if space requires. Does the media need to be replaced over time? Yes. The media blend neutralizes acid by dissolving over time. Media levels should be inspected annually and recharged when depleted to maintain proper pH levels.
