How to Flush the Condensate Line:
Today, we are going to talk about maintenance on your HVAC system. You should flush your condensate line every month, so your system stays free and clear of any type of sludge or anything that will back up your unit.
• First, take off the cap of the condensate line.
• Second, add the funnel to the condensate line.
• Third, add a ¼ to ½ cup of vinegar to the measuring cup and pour the vinegar into the funnel.
• Fourth, pour at least two cups of water into the measuring cup and add to the funnel. You need at least two cups of water to give it enough flushing power to make it through the entire line.
• Lastly, go outside of your home to check the condensate pipe to make sure the water went through the system. Your condensate line is normally located near your external AC unit.
