Abstract
An system is disclosed herein. The system includes a compressor configured to pump a refrigerant in a defrosting mode, a heat exchanging coil configured to receive the refrigerant from the compressor so as to operate in the defrosting mode and melt ice formed on the heat exchanging coil into condensate, a condensate pump, and a water transport system. The condensate pump is configured to pump the condensate via the water transport system. In some instances, a portion of the water transport system is disposed such that residual heat from the compressor heats the condensate being pumped by the condensate pump.
