NC-1W WALL HUNG CONDENSATE NEUTRALIZATION KIT

INSTALLATION, OPERATION, AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS


Installation Instructions
NOTE - Check with your local water authority for regulations regarding discharge of treated condensate
to the drain or sewer system.
WARNING
- “Risk of damage to appliance”. The neutralization kit inlet and discharge must be at a lower
elevation than the condensate drain from appliance.
- Do not allow exhaust flue gases to vent through the neutralization kit. All condensate drains must
have a trap to prevent flue gas leakage. Flue gas leakage can cause injury or death from carbon
monoxide.
- Connection to the appliance and neutralization kit must be installed to ensure that no condensate
backflow into the appliance can occur.
- This product can expose you to Silica, crystalline (airborne particles of respirable size) which is
known in the state of California to cause cancer. For more information go to
www.P65Warnings.ca.gov
If necessary, the orientation of the NC-1W can be reversed by removing the wall bracket and moving it to
the other side of the lid. (see figure 1 below). Mount the neutralization capsule on the wall securing it with
the provided wall bracket (see figure 2 and 3 below). The four provided #8 ¾” wood screws can be used to
mount the neutralizer into ½” or thicker wood board. If mounting onto a different material, select the
appropriate fastener for that medium.

Connections to the appliance and neutralization kit must be installed to ensure that no condensate backflow
can occur. Connect corrosion resistant piping and secure it to the wall to prevent movement. Do not route
the condensate line through any area that is exposed to freezing temperatures. If traffic poses a risk, install
some protection to prevent movement and/or damage. Mount as per installation diagram. The NC-1W
should be installed after the trap. Ensure that the condensate will flow freely from the appliance drain into
the capsule then to the drain. Access to the discharge is necessary for proper maintenance in order to check
the effectiveness of the neutralizing media, using pH test strips.
If there is no gravity drain available, install a condensate removal pump designed for use on condensing
boilers and furnaces. The condensate pump must be equipped with an over flow switch to prevent the
appliance from running should a failure occur.
Operation
The appliance condensate will flow through the neutralizing media, raising the pH of the condensate
to a level that will help prevent corrosion of the domestic drain and the public sewer system.
Maintenance
Monitor the cleanliness, level of the neutralization media, and pH level in the capsule monthly. Remove any
precipitate coating or debris found to prevent blockages. Check the pH level at the outlet of the neutralizing
kit using a suitable pH test strip paper or an electronic pH meter for precise measurement. The neutralizing
media should be replaced when the pH level drops below the minimum level of the local water authority,
when the float rises (see figure 4 below), or after one year, whichever comes first. For replacement LipHter+
media contact your local Axiom distributor.

The float should be down during normal operation. If flow in the NC-1W becomes restricted, the float will
rise and lock in position, indicating that the media should be replaced (see figure 4 above). After replacing
the media, reset the float by pushing it back down.
Limited Warranty
The unit is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship for one year.
