Platsky Core Removal Tools

Overview

The PLATSKY 550521 is a condensate removal pump designed to evacuate condensate water from HVAC equipment, high-efficiency furnaces, and other appliances that produce liquid condensate during normal operation. These pumps move condensate from the unit to a suitable drain location when gravity drainage is not practical. Licensed HVAC technicians and plumbers install this type of pump as part of system commissioning or as a replacement for a failed unit. At 4.11 pounds and compact enough to fit in tight mechanical spaces, the 550521 is suited for both new installations and direct replacements in residential and light commercial settings. Condensate removal pumps like the 550521 are commonly applied with high-efficiency gas furnaces, air handlers, fan coils, mini-split systems, and condensing boilers that generate acidic or neutral condensate. The unit fits in confined equipment rooms, utility closets, and attic installations where overhead or horizontal drain runs are required. It is appropriate for residential applications and light commercial HVAC systems where a gravity drain is not available or accessible.
