In any case, the manual from our 3 month old Carrier system says that CARRIER requires one and if it is like here as in that article from VA I linked **IF** local code says one is only needed **IF** A/C manufacturer requires it then those without one are in violation of code (not that it means a hill of beans just a POI). That article was about VA and I didn't look through code here as it really wasn't of importance, just a DP.

My neighborhood was built about 7 years ago. All of the houses have a Carrier HVAC system installed by Munn's. To my knowledge, none of them have a P-trap on the condensate drain line, either near the inside air handling unit or anywhere outside the house.
