Marketair Adds New Time-Saving Condensate Drain Line Adaptor to DrainMate Product Line

February 19, 2020

Marketair Inc., an Edison, N.J.-based supplier of specialized and innovative installation components for the North American HVACR market, has added the time-saving DMB-34 adaptor fitting to its DrainMate line of condensate drain hose connection fittings for ductless mini-split (DMS) wall-mount evaporators.

Marketair DrainMateThe DrainMate DMB-34 is a blue flexible plastic adaptor fitting for quickly and easily creating a tight, reliable connection from a DMS wall-mount evaporator’s 5/8-inch (16-mm) condensate drain hose to a 3/4-inch (20-mm) schedule 40 PVC drain pipe commonly used in many applications.

The DMB-34 is fabricated from a special grip-enhancing, non-slip material. The 5/8-inch female end accepts any of the standard plain or ribbed plastic nipples commonly supplied by most ductless manufacturers for fitting to the end of the drain hose.

The 3/4-inch female end slides directly onto any standard PVC pipe to ensure a reliable and easy connection secured by clamps or cable ties.

The DMB-34 completes the color-coded, easy-to-install DrainMate product line, which can accommodate any possible DMSS drain line connection challenge.

Other DrainMate models include:

  • DMY-58, a yellow 5/8-inch adaptor to connect the drain hose from the evaporator to a plain or flexible 5/8-inch hose, or to a 1/2-inch (12.7-mm) PVC pipe;
  • DMG-1, a green adaptor for use when the 5/8-inch drain hose needs to be shortened requiring removal of the plastic nipple and then secured to a 3/4-inch PVC pipe.

“Inventorying a small assortment of DrainMate adaptors on a service truck pays for itself because it eliminates a trip to the plumbing or HVAC wholesaler to jury-rig fittings not designed for the task,” said Gerry Spanger, president, Marketair.

DrainMate DMB-34 is available in cartons of 20-pieces at many participating North American HVAC/R wholesale distributors or direct from Marketair. For more information on other innovative Marketair HVAC/R products, please visit www.marketair.com, call (732) 985-8226 or email info@marketair.com.
