Q. Are the DH-14 and DH-16 UV resistant?
A . No. The DH-14 and DH-16 are outdoor drain hoses, but they are not UV resistant. A lineset cover with UV protection is needed for piping. For installations resulting in outdoor exposure, we recommend using UV Resistant Drain Hose DHQ-14 and DHQ-16.
Q. Are the DH-14 and DH-16 UV resistant?
A . No, they should be installed inside of UV stabilized SLIMDUCT to be protected from UV exposure. DHQ-14 and DHQ-16 are UV rated and are approved for outdoor use.
Q. Do the openings to the DH and DHQ products have the same measurements?
Yes. Regardless of the size or classification, DH-14/DH-16 and DHQ-14/DHQ-16 openings all have the same measurement. However, inner diameters and bellows have different measurements.
Q. Do the openings to the DH and DHQ products have the same measurements?
Yes. Regardless of the size or classification, DH-14/DH-16 and DHQ-14/DHQ-16 openings all have the same measurement.
Q. What conditions are needed for positioning a Mini Inline Trap (DHB)?
A . The DHB needs to be at a certain height to collect water at the top. Please position it low in a vertical orientation that is more than 1 meter (approximately 39-3/8″) from the indoor unit.
Q. When would a Mini Inline Trap (DHB) be used?
A . The international mechanical code has required an inline trap or p-trap since 2015. The Inaba Denko-America DHB Inline Trap should be used on every VRF/Ductless/Mini Split wall mounted indoor unit condensation line to align with code requirements.
Q. Should I install the Mini Inline Trap (DHB) inside the lineset cover?
A . No, please do not install DHB inside the lineset cover so that required inspections and cleaning can be routinely performed.
Q. Should I install the Mini Inline Trap (DHB) inside the lineset cover?
A . You may install the DHB either inside or outside of the lineset cover. If installing inside, be sure to allow easy access for periodic maintenance.
Q. Can the Mini Inline Trap (DHB) be used indoors?
A . No, it is specialized for outdoor use only. When the Drain Hose is inserted into the coupler, there is no adhesion. If, for whatever reason, the drain pipe is clogged, there is a possibility of water leaking from the coupler. Please install it outside in a vertical orientation.
Q. Can the Mini Inline Trap (DHB) be used indoors?
A . You may use the DHB indoors when using an SD or MD lineset cover. Be sure to allow for periodic maintenance.
Q. How can I prevent insects from coming indoors through the Drain Hose?
A . Please attach the Bug Stopper (DC) to the end of the Drain Hose.
