Abstract
A chemical delivery system is provided. The chemical delivery system includes a strand of material having a plurality of chemical delivery tablets secured thereto. The strand of material can be inserted into a drain pipe opening and retained within the drain pipe by a retention disc and/or a removable cap. The chemical delivery tablets are measurably consumed as fluid or other condensate material flows through the drain pipe. The strand of material may then be readily replaced with a new strand on a period basis without necessitating disassembly of the pipe thereby preventing growth of algae or other organic material in the drain pipe.
Claims21
A chemical delivery system for an air conditioning unit drainage line, comprising:
- a retention disc having a flat annular surface which is sized to be received within a closure, the retention disc having a central area disposed between the flat annular surface, the central area affixed to a strand of material;
