Drain hose Tefcold SpareParts 11438

Condensate water collects beneath refrigeration equipment as warm air passes over cold evaporator coils. Without a clear exit, this water pools in the condensate tray, risking overflow, bacterial growth and damage to the appliance. A drain hose provides a sealed, continuous route from the tray to a floor drain or waste pipe, removing the water by gravity without spillage or manual emptying.

The hose connects to the appliance's drain outlet, typically a barbed fitting or threaded port. Once secured, it directs the water downward, relying on a steady slope to prevent kinks or sharp bends that could trap water or restrict flow. In a professional kitchen, this keeps the area beneath the unit dry, reducing slip hazards and preventing corrosion or mould.

Installation involves disconnecting any existing hose and attaching the new one to the drain outlet. A clamp or similar fitting secures the connection to prevent leaks. The hose requires no further adjustment, though occasional inspection ensures it remains clear and properly routed around obstacles in tight kitchen spaces.

This Tefcold drain hose is a flexible spare part designed to replace worn or damaged hoses on specific refrigeration units. It restores the original drainage function without modifying the appliance, fitting undercounter fridges, upright display cabinets, undercounter freezers and blast chillers. The hose itself is passive but essential—keeping water moving away from the appliance and out of the workspace.
