DriSteem 902205 Drane Kooler

DRANE KOOLER assembly with 12 National Pipe Thread style fittings. This item is made of 304 Stainless Steel. A Drane-kooler is a water tempering device that mixes cold water with hot water discharged from various types of equipment, such as a humidifier, to reduce the discharged water temperature before it enters a municipal sewer system. There are two reasons to use a water tempering device. First, most municipalities prohibit draining water hotter than 140 °F (60 °C) into their sewer systems. And second, PVC drain pipes are susceptible to damage from water that is too hot. The Drane Kooler has a temperature sensor that opens a mechanical valve and mixes fresh water with the hot condensate water when it sees condensate water that is above 140 degrees. A change occurred on this product with the latest revision having a welded water inlet assembly instead of a threaded elbow. No impact on the product just a design improvement.
