Yes, would require a backflow shutoff valve and a bit of plumbing. Surprised that AC installers haven't suggested this method ...but, agree that the monthly manual flush works just fine!

I have been using white vinegar in my drain line every time I change the filter, which is 2-3 times a year. Last year the line plugged, so I hooked up a hose to the line (cold water) and ran it for a minute or two. You wouldn't believe the pile of nasty grey matter that came out at the end of the drain. It was disgusting. Now, once each summer, I will run water through it along with the vinegar treatment.
