LG Air Conditioner Nipple,Drain

The LG Air Conditioner Drain Pan Nipple / Hose Adapter (Part Number: 4H01010A) is an authentic original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement condensate management fitting designed for LG ductless mini-split outdoor condenser units, window air conditioners, and portable dehumidifiers. Mounted directly into the bottom drain knockout hole of the outdoor chassis pan, this angled elbow fitting collects defrost runoff and cooling condensation. It channels wastewater directly into a connected vinyl drain pipe, preventing water puddling around walkways, staining exterior walls, or corroding base brackets.

Key Features

• 90-Degree Angled Elbow Outlet: Directs draining condensate downwards and away from the outdoor unit base without kinking connected drain hoses.

• Quarter-Turn Snap/Twist-Lock Cam Flange: Features integrated retaining lugs designed to lock securely into the base pan's sheet metal drain opening for a firm, leak-resistant mechanical seal.

• Barbed Tubing Retention Collar: Ribbed connection neck ensures standard flexible PVC/vinyl drainage tubes remain seated under continuous water flow.

• Weather & UV-Resistant Polymer: Molded from heavy-duty engineering plastic engineered to endure intense outdoor sunlight, freezing winter temperatures, and acidic condensate without embrittlement or cracking.

Benefits

• Solves uncontrolled water dripping from outdoor condenser units, cracked or missing drain spouts, base pan overflow, or drainage pipe disconnection.

• Protects exterior building walls, walkways, and mounting brackets from persistent water damage and algae growth.

• Direct OEM replacement guarantees factory hole alignment and tight retention.

Designed specifically for select LG ductless mini-split outdoor heat pumps, window air conditioning units, and dehumidifiers requiring part number 4H01010A.
