Commercial HVAC Condensate Management

Complete, code-compliant water handling for large-scale systems.
Commercial HVAC condensate management involves the systematic collection, removal, and safe disposal of large volumes of condensation from air handlers, fan coils, and dehumidifiers across a building. EKG Malaysia designs and installs engineered solutions that ensure reliability, prevent water damage, mitigate health risks, and comply with local building and health regulations.

Our Comprehensive Management Approach:

• Centralized Collection Systems:

  • Sump Pits & Tanks: Strategic collection points for multiple AHUs/FCUs.

  • Primary & Secondary Drain Pans: With alarm floats for critical units.

• Robust Pumping Solutions:

  • High-Capacity Lift Pumps: For vertical lifts from basements or multi-story risers.

  • Duty-Standby Pump Sets: Redundant systems for 100% uptime in critical areas (data centers, hospitals).

  • Chemical-Resistant Pumps: For air washers or treated air systems.

• Hygiene & Safety Systems:

  • Trap Primers & Cleanouts: Maintaining trap seals and allowing access for cleaning.

  • Biocide Tablets & UV Treatment: Options to control microbial growth in stagnant water.

  • Overflow Alarms: Integrated with BMS for immediate alerts.

• Drainage Network Design:

  • Sizing and routing of PVC/PP drainage mains with proper venting and slope.

  • Independent discharge to sanitary drains or approved dispersal points.

Key Commercial Considerations:

• Volume & Peak Load: Calculating condensate generation based on total system tonnage and latent load.

• Redundancy & Reliability: Designing systems that won't fail during peak humidity or equipment malfunction.

• Legionella & Mold Prevention: Adhering to SSD/JKR/ASHRAE guidelines to prevent IAQ issues.

• Maintenance Access: Designing for easy inspection, cleaning, and service without disrupting operations.

• Local Compliance: Meeting Uniform Building By-Laws (UBBL) and DBKL requirements.

Applications We Serve:

• High-rise office towers

• Shopping malls and hotels

• Hospitals and laboratories

• Data centers and telecom facilities

• Industrial facilities with large air make-up units

The EKG Engineering Advantage:
We provide turnkey design-build services, from initial hydraulic calculations and risk assessment to installation, testing, and documentation for facility manuals. Our focus is on lifecycle cost, not just first cost, ensuring a system that is efficient, maintainable, and compliant.

Turn a liability into a managed asset.
Professional condensate management protects your building, its occupants, and your operational continuity.
