Product Description
The AO SMITH 100266139 is a condensate trap kit designed to manage and drain condensate water produced during the combustion process in high-efficiency water heaters and boilers. Condensate traps prevent flue gases from escaping through the drain line by maintaining a water seal, ensuring safe and code-compliant venting. This kit is installed by licensed plumbers and HVAC technicians servicing condensing appliances where acidic condensate must be properly captured and routed to a drain.
The 100266139 condensate trap kit is suited for residential and light commercial condensing water heater installations where proper condensate management is required. High-efficiency condensing appliances generate significant amounts of acidic condensate during normal operation, and a functional trap is essential for safe drainage and venting integrity. Installation is typically performed during appliance setup or as part of a service call when the original trap is damaged or missing.
