size of condensate drain pans for air handling units
where abnormally high latent loads will be
encountered such as high humidity locations or units
operating with 100 percent outside air. Where the
potential exists for a manufacturer's standard
condensate pan to be smaller than the size
calculated, include the size required in the
equipment schedule on the drawings.
