air conditioning condesation pump

[Jim Hardesty]

Last spring I installed AC.  By the time it was running to my satifaction, didn't want to do anything but enjoy it.  I bought a sump box with a pump to take care of the condesation from the AC.  I like a dry bilge.  My question is,
Where have others run the drain hose?  Could run it back to where the bilge pump exits, but that's a long run.

Jim,
I have a "Condensator" from Mermaid Air.  Has worked well for 12 years.

Aloha.
I just had the condensation water t'ed back into the seawater outlet hose, with a small filter in the line. Works fine. Susan

Susan,
Isn't there a chance of the seawater backing up through the condensation hose and flooding the area?

[Susan Ray]

Aloha..No,the salt water flows out fine and the outtake is above the water..Don't know where it would back up from? It has been working great.
