VENT ATTENUATION ASSEMBLY

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

The Vent Attenuation Assembly (VAA) is designed to provide a reduction in fan noise created in the blower wheel. This installation of this VAA is optional. Review directions thoroughly prior to installing the new VAA. Please contact the manufacturer of the water heater as shown in the instruction manual with any questions or for additional product support.

VENT ATTENUATION ASSEMBLY KIT PARTS LIST

The kit consists of the following items. If a part is missing, use the contact information in the instruction manual to acquire missing component(s).

•vent attenuation assembly

•flexible tubing

•instruction sheet

VENT ATTENUATION ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION

The VAA is designed for both vertical and horizontal installations. The vertical installation and horizontal installations will require that the flexible condensate hose to be attached to the condensate hose barb located on the bottom of the VAA to release condensate. See instructions and diagrams that follow for a more detailed description.

4.Make sure the VAA and vent pipe is supported securely to a permanent fixture (stud or wall). Use standard support straps (not supplied with kit) that may be found at a local hardware store. Failure to properly support the VAA and the surrounding vent pipe could create a hazardous situation. DO NOT puncture any surface of the VAA.

5.Locate flexible tubing. Slide one end of tubing over the hose barb located near end of the VAA. The ridges on the hose barb should prevent the tubing from sliding off, however, to ensure there are no leaks and possible dislocation from hose barb, use a wire tie or hose clamp (not supplied with kit) and secure.

6.Take the other end of the flexible tubing and slide it through the hose clamp on the jacket top cover and install it into one of the four barb fittings in vent pipe assembly #2.

7.Once installed along with the rest of the vent configuration, make sure to operate the unit through at least one heat up cycle to ensure there is no leakage around the hose barb or any joints of the VAA or vent pipe system.

Breathing Hazard - Carbon Monoxide Gas

•Do NOT block the holes in the hex plug of vent pipe assembly #1.

•Do NOT elevate any portion of the field supplied drain line beyond the 1/2" adaptor above the adaptor. This

must be true for entire length of the drain line including the exit into an appropriate drain.

• Condensate lines must be free and clear of debris and must not allow back flow through drain line. Condensate lines must be able to flow freely to an appropriate drain.

• Do not allow condensate lines to become crimped closed.

• Analyze entire vent system to make sure that condensate will not become trapped in a section of vent pipe and therefore reduce open cross sectional area of vent.

Breathing carbon monoxide can cause brain damage or death.

Always read and understand instruction manual.

Vertical VAA Installations (Recommended)

1.The VAA is designed to accept two inch PVC pipe into the adapters on both ends. The VAA must be installed with the condensate hose barb pointing downward. See Figure 22. The

VAA has an embossed flow arrow to reflect proper orientation.

For optimum performance, install VAA as close as possible to the blower assembly.

2.Use standard PVC cement (not included with kit) and glue the two inch PVC pipe coming from the blower into the VAA.

3.Perform the same sequence on the PVC pipe coming from the exhaust side (vent terminal side) of the VAA.
