Dear forum members!
I would like to prepare my house, which is to be built, for a split air conditioning system. A (4) service entry is planned into the technical room. Since we will not be using gas, I am asking you whether it is allowed to use the last free passage for the AC – either for the smaller pipe of the coolant or the larger one of the evaporated gas (I hope I have understood the cycle correctly :rolleyes:). According to my calculation, I would then only need to leave one more smaller hole through the basement exterior wall.
Since it is a prefabricated house, the manufacturer is reluctant to compromise the "thermal envelope" by installing empty conduits to the outside if it would serve the preparation of condensate drains (upper floor + ground floor).
Maybe someone has experience or tips regarding this? As far as I understand, you can hardly want to lead the condensate all the way into the basement through any pipe shafts, right? Then it would have to drip into a sink or something?
Thanks for your advice,
Reltaw
