NOTE: This unit can be vented using only the following

materials: PVC (Cellular Core; ASTM-F891), PVC (DWV; ASTM D2665 or CSA B181.2), PVC (Sch 40, 80, 120; ASTM D1785 or CSA B137.3), PVC (SDR Series; ASTM-D2241 or CSA B137.3), CPVC (CPVC 41; ASTM-D2846 or CSA B137.6), CPVC (Sch 40, 80; ASTM-F441 or CSA B137.6), CPVC (SDR Series; ASTM-F442), ABS (Sch 40 DWV; ASTM D2661 or CSA B181.1), ABS (Sch 40 DWV cellular core; ASTM-F628). The fittings, other than the TERMINATION should be equivalent to PVC-DWV fittings meeting ASTM D-2665 (Use CPVC fittings, ASTM F-438 for CPVC pipe and ABS fittings, ASTM D-2661/3311 for ABS pipe). If CPVC or ABS pipe and fittings are used, then the proper cement must be used for all joints, including joining the pipe to the Termination (PVC Material). If local codes do not allow the use of the PVC termination when a material other than PVC is used for venting, then an equivalent fitting of that material may be substituted if the screen in the PVC terminal is removed and inserted into the new fitting.

PVC Materials should use ASTM D-2564 Grade Cement; CPVC Materials should use ASTM F-493 Grade Cement and ABS Materials should use ASTM D-2235 Grade Cement.

If the water heater is being installed as a replacement for an existing power vented heater in pre-existing venting, a thorough inspection of the existing venting system must be performed prior to any installation work. Verify that the correct material as detailed above has been used, and that the minimum or maximum vent lengths and terminal location as detailed in this manual have been met. Carefully inspect the entire venting system for any signs of cracks or fractures, particularly at the joints between elbows and other fittings and the straight runs of vent pipe. Check the system for signs of sagging or other stresses in the joints as a result of misalignment of any components in the system. If any of these conditions are found, they must be corrected in accordance with the venting instructions in this manual before completing the installation and putting the water heater into service.

NOTE: A. For water heaters in locations with high ambient temperatures (above 100°F) it is recommended that CPVC or ABS pipe and fittings be used. B. A 22.5 degree elbow (2” vent pipe) or a 45 degree elbow (3” and 4” vent pipe) with an installed screen VENT TERMINAL must be used in all cases.

CONDENSATE

Condensate formation does not occur in all installations of power vented water heaters, but should be protected against on installations where it can form in the venting system. Condensation in the venting system of power vented water heaters is dependent upon installation conditions including, but not limited to ambient temperature and humidity of installation location, ambient temperature and humidity of venting space, vent discharge and slope, and product usage. In certain conditions, installations in unconditioned space or having long horizontal or vertical vent runs may accumulate condensate. In these conditions, the vent pipe should be sloped downward away from the blower assembly (not less than 1/8” (3.2 mm) nor greater than 1/2” (12.7 mm) per foot maximum). If the vent piping is vented level or sloped upwards away from the blower assembly, then adequate means for draining and disposing of the condensate needs to be made by the installer (if condensate is detected). If you have condensate, then a 3/8” drain hose can be connected to the built-in drain port of the rubber boot on the blower assembly. For your convenience, the rubber boot is supplied with a removable cap on the built-in drain port. Prior to operating the water heater, make sure the removable cap is installed on the drain port (if a drain hose is not needed).

BLOWER ASSEMBLY INSTALLATION

1.Check to make sure that the wire harness is attached to the gas valve and blower control box.

2.Make sure no material is still attached to the outside or inside of blower assembly.

FIGURE 16. BLOWER ASSEMBLY

3.Make sure that plastic tubing is still attached to the pressure switch and fan housing. Also make sure that wiring connector from motor to control box is securely attached.
