Quoted from Electrocute:Never add anything corrosive to your drain line, such as bleach, when flushing the line. That’s it!
My dad has put bleach down the pvc condensate line for 42 years with no problem. I’ve never had a problem either. Our AC maintenance company at work does it too. Works better than anything else as a preventative. Keeps bacterial slime from forming blockages. A quarter cup of bleach is not going to harm a thing.
Don’t use bleach to clear a clog though, it doesn’t work well.
Quoted from Electrocute:It’s the aluminum evaporator coil, not the drain line, you’ve got to worry about.
How would it get up to the coil? Gases?
I’m more curious how the outside unit survives since I have the house pressure washed every year and they use a ton of bleach.
