    Isn't telling people NOT to google that a really good way to ensure that they will? You know, human nature, curiosity, etc.

    Not sure what "looks like a filter drier is" unless it's a thermostatic trap but it shouldn't be on a convection steamer.

    Is your drain pipe vented and run in 1.5" copper? There should also be a cold water valve that supplies drain water though a jet so the steam will not build up a vacuum and continue to go out the drain. Do they work and are those jets turned to spray down the drain?

    If your condensate traps are leaking ( what looks like a dryer) coming off the compartment supply lines then you could have the steam travel back up the compartment drain line and vent. Normal function of these traps are to drain off any water in the steam supply lines but not allow the steam to vent.

    Look at drawing number 105881. Most likely your problem is here.

    If you are talking about the thermostatic trap it's best just to change them out. They can't be taken apart to be cleaned and if you try to soak them in a cleaning solution your labor would be more than the cost of the trap.
