ABSTRACT:
A siphon drain system for removing condensate from a central air conditioning unit to a floor drain includes an overhead siphon line which passes between the air conditioner and the drain. The siphon line includes a first siphon end passing into a source container that holds a quantity of the condensate. The siphon line includes a second discharge end that is longer than the siphon end. When the line is primed, condensate will drain through the second discharge end at the same rate as it passes into the siphon end. Use of an overhead siphon line does not obstruct the floor of the building in which the air conditioner and drain are located.
