check out the pics
The great pictures posted on the wall answer this question better than words. For example, the recent ones by boilerpro in the thread entitled "Cringe and Tears No. 2 and new life". See

condensate trapping??
I think from the pics, the hartford loop is off the back of the header and if you pitch from front to back all condensate will dripp down the hartford.0 -
That's correct
sometimes it doesn't show up in our pics, but the header always pitches down toward the equalizer. If you look at this one real close, you can just see the pitch.
