This topic came up in another thread but I thought needed a wider discussion.
The condensate water from a condensing boiler is slightly acidic. Mine currently runs onto the ground pending a proper solution. I had planned to feed it into the plastic soil stack but that stack connects to an older cast iron pipe below ground level and that the drain below ground has lime mortar joining the ceramic pipe sections.
Is it advised not to allow condensate water into such a drain system? Will it really dissolve the cast iron and the lime mortar or are these urban myths?
