Very nice. May regret not running the lineset along the wall and 90 straight out to unit.

Why is the overflow on the evapoartor coil not piped in?
What happens to the water when the primary drain plugs up?

On up-flow units we install a safety switch. It's code.
I don't want to hear you complaining!

I would have 90'd from the building rather than 45'd....personal preference really....less line hanging in the open. also don't see a point in rigid on the SL.
are you saying the combustion condensate was internally trapped, or the coil is internally trapped?
I also would have shortened the 'T' and capped it on the drain line. shouldn't be any issues unless static is high.
also snow legs on the furnace to keep the metal off the concrete (if you have the room), and the same on cond. keeps both from rusting early, and allows cond. to drain without getting crap plugging up the drains.
overall nice job though!

dont need a trap, it's under positive pressure... but it does need atmospheric vent
