The steam jacket heating condensate is located 7 meters underground; a hydrophoger is installed at the surface. Can the condensate be drained to maintain the temperature underground?

The steam jacket heating condensate is located 7 meters underground; a hydrophoger is installed at the surface. Can the condensate be removed, and will this help maintain the temperature of the underground pipelines?
It depends on the steam pressure and the model of the trap
First, add a vent valve behind the strainer and in front of the manual valve; if that doesn’t work, just use the vent valve first – if it works, then you’ve succeeded. In particular, there should originally be a shut-off valve and a vent valve here.
It’s not very effective; steam can’t completely push the condensate upward
