Importance of Cleaning Your Condensate Drain Line

A condensate drain line runs through your system to the outside of your home. The moisture will travel through the drain line and drip outside.

It’s important to clean, flush, and unclog your condensate drain line. A clogged drain line can cause your evaporator coils to freeze up and lead to a complete system breakdown.

How Do Condensate Drain Lines Clog?

Scheduling professional maintenance offers one of the most convenient ways to prevent your condensate drain line from clogging! Changing your filter every 30 to 90 days and pouring bleach or vinegar down your condensate drain line also helps remove and clear out debris.
