Abstract:
1. Apparatus for applying chemicals to condensate water from an air conditioning condensate tray, the apparatus comprising: an elongate reservoir body having an open upper end, a lower end, and a central cavity enclosed by an encircling wall, the central cavity constructed to receive chemicals therein; a top closure removably connected to the upper end for closing the upper end; a first aperture in the encircling wall; a first tubular member operatively connected at a first end to the first aperture and having a second end extending horizontally outwardly therefrom; the second end constructed for receiving condensate water from the condensate tray for providing a fluid passage for the water to the central cavity; a second aperture in the encircling wall directly opposing the first aperture; a second tubular member operatively connected at a first end to the second aperture and having a second end extending horizontally outwardly therefrom, and aligned with the first tubular member; the second end of the second tubular member provided with a removable covering; a fluid outlet in fluid communication with the central cavity, the fluid outlet disposed below the first tubular member to enhance gravitational forces on fluid drainage; and connection means at the fluid outlet for operative fluid communication with a drainage apparatus.
