ACRC 100 float switch condensate pan

[BillP]

I am producing a lot of condensate can and our float that raises up to open condensate to drain sticks closed from time to time - all is gravity fed so I don't need to pump it up and out - can I prop open that drain float valve so it drains all the time?

Hello Chris. The float in the condensate pan on the ACRC100 controls the condensate pump that is within the unit, to pump the water out of the condensate pan. I would not recommend propping this up as it will make the condensate pump run constantly. This will burn out the condensate pump very quickly.

Thank you
