I've got 3 semi-rigid/flexible condensate pipes which come from the new AC units. I'd like to be able to connect into the 40mm on the left.
The compressor and the 3 pipes all come out about 2 metres to the left so ideally I think I'd want to run some fully rigid pipe (40mm ?) for two meters or so. Otherwise I'd need to clip up 3 flexible pipes and it would look shit I think.
If this was inside I'd have a standpipe + trap and then poke the flexi pipes into it. (They are 16mm pipes.) But with it being outside I'm not sure what would be for the best.
I'm also not sure about insulation - they produce a very small amount of water and most of their outside run is inside trunking. I'm thinking I shan't bother and if it becomes a problem come winter, I'll deal with it then....
