It is a water pump that also condenses the tightly-confined refrigerant vapors to a liquid at low pressure, achieving higher efficiency and lower energy cost.
Condensate pumps are an essential element in self-contained heating systems where the volume of vaporized refrigerant is usually high. The pump can be divided into two main types: piston type from which condensate overflows continuously onto a drip tray and centrifugal type from which only a small amount of water needs to be drained manually after connecting with proper channels.

We assess your space, consider the specific requirements of your HVAC system, and implement a customized installation plan. From selecting the right pump model to ensuring seamless integration with your existing setup, we leave no stone unturned to guarantee flawless performance.

Condensate pump installation and repair is part of condensation pump services provided by Wrench It Up plumbing and mechanical.
A condensate pump is used to get water out of a machine or building, and the water is usually hot.
In an air conditioning system, the air blowing through the cooling coils will evaporate some of the moisture from the refrigerant system keeping it from damaging other parts in your air conditioner. The same process can happen with boiler systems that use steam to power a turbine generator.
If a condensate pump is not working, it will continue to run and not stop like it should. This can lead to the pump overheating and eventually burning out. In some cases, this may even cause a fire. So, if you are experiencing this issue, it is important to have it fixed by a master plumber as soon as possible.

Yes. The condensation pump is a great device to prevent water damage in your home, but it requires maintenance. If the machine operates incorrectly or does not have proper cleaning procedures for accumulated dirt and debris from around the house, then you could end up with moldy walls, and this will make living there very uncomfortable!
A good way our experienced plumbers can help avoid these problems would be by installing an air conditioner that has ventilation features built into them, so all this moisture goes outside rather than inside.
You can do this by shutting off the power at the breaker, removing the grill with a wrench, lifting the pump out with another wrench and installing a new one.
Over time, the float and float components can accumulate debris which may prevent it from flipping when you want your water drained. The wear and tear on both parts as well as potential corrosion are factors in why these switches fail with age; however there is no need for alarm if this happens only once every few years or so.
The frequency should be determined by the environment in which your unit operates and at least once every three months.
You can find a condensate pump located on the lower right-hand side of the radiator. The wrench is situated beneath it.
Yes. A check valve is a small accessory that can extend the life of your condensate pump by preventing water from draining back into it.
The lifespan of a condensate pump depends on the quality and brand. If you have poor control over your condensate line, this may result in shorter service life.
Your AC might be causing you problems, but it is not the only thing. Your condensate drain line can also be clogged with mold and mildew if there are leaks in your home or plumbing system.
Inside every condensate pump is a floating device that helps the machine work. If water builds up in the reservoir and gets too high for this float to go back down, then you will notice your appliances running continuously with no indication of why they are not shutting off when turned off.
The first and easiest option is to allow condensate to drain using gravity, from the pan into the main sewer line that leads outside or directly onto your floor drain.
One of the most common reasons for this is when the water in the trap becomes agitated. This agitation may happen because of fluctuations in power, feeling vibrations from other appliances, or when you turn on and off your sink.
