yep, mice and insulation, plus wasps building nests in pipes... the usual causes. Even with gravity drain condensate lines, we're still required to have float kill switch on the drip pan, in case of clogged drain or failed condensate pump. Good idea. Seen the kill switches save home owner a LOT of repair work.No pump here... just gravity... line is probably more likely to clog up since it doesn't get "flushed", but it seems ok.
It is a good idea... even if it's not required... I'm gonna take a look at mine next time I'm up there and see how I can add a float switch!Even with gravity drain condensate lines, we're still required to have float kill switch on the drip pan, in case of clogged drain or failed condensate pump.

There are different types. Some mount on side of the metal drip/overflow pan under the airhandler, others are part of an integral pan drain kit... but most I see are just a simple float switch that mounts to the side of the overflow pan under the air handler.. Here are some examples -It is a good idea... even if it's not required... I'm gonna take a look at mine next time I'm up there and see how I can add a float switch!
