HOW TO CLEAN YOUR CONDENSATE DRAIN LINE

In this video we discuss how to clean your air conditioning condensate line after flushing with water (not shown) and how to install a access tee for easy servicing in the future (if you don't already have one). We will also show you how to attach a wet/dry vac to your outside end condensate line and use distilled white vinegar to pour through the inside tee to clean the line out. Please wear your PPE and stay safe.
Side Note: We also ended up removing the HVAC Panel (not shown) to the Evaporator Coil and poured 1/4 cup of vinegar in the drain pan, let sit for 20 minutes and then vacuumed with the wet/dry vac. Feel free to leave any questions or comments. We will address each one and be more than happy to answer them. Stay safe!
