I am about to have a new combi boiler installed in my basement and it is below the drain level.
Fitter has suggested a condense pump up to the drains, but I already have 2 basement pump systems in place (one for the washing machine and one for possible flood damage.
The flood pump and sump are directly below the boiler and it has a capacity of about 20 gallons before it pumps out. Can I drain the condensate into that safely or will the acidity damage the unit?
Also, similar question for the blow off/pressure relief system - can I drain these into the sump pump rather than put a separate tank to hold that?
Thanks,
Charles.
