Installation and Service Manual

2.Outside Combustion Air, Using Ducts

You can direct outside combustion air to this pool heater using two air ducts to deliver the air to the equipment room. Each of the two openings must have a minimum free area of one square inch per 2000 Btu input (11cm2 per kW).

Figure 8 – Outside Combustion Air Through Ducts

3.Outside Combustion Air, Using Direct Venting

With this option, you can connect combustion air vent piping directly to the pool heater. See the information under Direct Venting starting on page 21 for specific information regarding this option.

4.Combustion Air from Interior Space

You can direct combustion air to this pool heater using air from an adjoining interior space. You must provide two openings from the equipment room to the adjoining room.

Each of the two openings must have a net free area of one square inch per 1000 Btu input (22cm2 per kW), but not less than 100 square inches (645cm2).

Figure 9 – Combustion Air from Interior Space

All dimensions are based on net free area in square inches. Metal louvers or screens reduce the free area of a combustion air opening a minimum of approximately 25%. Check with louver manufacturers for exact net free area of louvers. Where two openings are provided, one must be within 12" (30 cm) of the ceiling and one must be within 12" (30 cm) of the floor of the equipment room. Each opening must have a minimum net free area as specified in TABLE–C, page 12. Single openings shall be installed within 12" (30 cm) of the ceiling.

The combustion air supply must be completely free of any flammable vapors that may ignite or chemical fumes which may be corrosive to the pool heater. Common corrosive chemical fumes which must be avoided are fluorocarbons and other halogenated compounds, most commonly present as refrigerants or solvents, such as Freon, trichlorethylene, perchlorethylene, chlorine, etc. These chemicals, when burned, form acids which quickly attack the heat exchanger finned tubes, headers, flue collectors, and the vent system. The result is improper combustion and a non-warrantable, premature pool heater failure.

Exhaust Fans

Any fan or equipment which exhausts air from the equipment room may deplete the combustion air supply and/or cause a downdraft in the venting system. Spillage of flue products from the venting system into an occupied living space can cause a very hazardous condition that must be immediately corrected. If a fan is used to supply combustion air to the equipment room, the installer must make sure that it does not cause drafts which could lead to nuisance operational problems with the pool heater.

Vertical DirectAire™ and Horizontal DirectAire™ venting systems have specific requirements for combustion air ducts from the outside which are directly connected to the pool heater. See the requirements for combustion air duct in the venting section starting on page 12.
