Installation instructions

signage installed in accordance with the provisions of 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a)1 through 4.

(b)EXEMPTIONS: The following equipment is exempt from 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a)1 through 4:

1.The equipment listed in Chapter 10 entitled "Equipment Not Required To Be Vented" in the most current edition of NFPA 54 as adopted by the Board; and

2.Product approved side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment installed in a room or structure separate from the dwelling, building or structure used in whole or in part for residential purposes.

(c)MANUFACTURERS REQUIREMENTS - GAS EQUIPMENT VENTING SYSTEM REQUIRED. When the manufacturer of Product Approved side wall horizontally mounted gas equipment provides a venting system design or venting system components with the equipment, the instructions provided by the manufacturer for the installation of the equipment and the venting shall include:

1.Detailed instructions for the installation of the venting system or the venting system components: and

2.A complete parts list for the venting system design or venting system.

(d)MANUFACTURER REQUIREMENTS - GAS EQUIPMENT VENTING SYSTEM NOT PROVIDED. When the manufacturer of a product approved side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment does not provide the parts for the venting of flue gases, but identifies "special venting systems," the following requirements shall be satisfied by the manufacturer:

1.The referenced "special venting system" instructions shall be included with the appliance or equipment installation instructions; and

2.The "special venting systems" shall be product approved by the Board, and the instructions for that system shall include a parts list and detailed installation instructions.

(e)A copy of all installation instructions for all products approved side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment, all venting instructions, all parts lists for venting instructions, and/or all venting design instructions shall remain with the appliance or equipment at the completion of the installation.

3.4Combustion air requirements

Warning: In areas where outside temperatures routinely come close to freezing, sealed combustion operation is required. Use a concentric termination or separate terminations for combustion and vent, which must be installed on the same wall or roof surface, however never facing the direction of prevailing winds. Failure to do so may result in heat exchanger freezing up and bursting. This failure is not covered under the manufacturer's warranty.

Warning: When installed in an environment where corrosive chemicals or dirty air are present the twin pipe system is required.

Twin pipe

The GWH 2400 ES is designed as a sealed combustion appliance. It is recommended that the combustion air be provided by a dedicated 3” or 4” pipe from the outside. The combustion air pipe may be PVC or any other rigid sealed 3” or 4" pipe. The combustion air piping must pitch down 1/4 inch per foot towards termination to prevent rain water from entering the appliance. The combustion air inlet, whether terminating vertically or horizontally, must be located in such a manner as to provide a minimum 3 foot clearance from the exhaust vent terminator. See Fig. 10 Letter I, page 10.

The maximum length of the combustion air inlet is 26 feet with one elbow. Subtract 2.5 feet for each additional 90° elbow and 1.25 feet for each additional 45° elbow. Maximum number of elbows permitted is 3.

Warning: Vent terminations must prevent rain from entering the combustion air and exhaust vent piping.

Single pipe

Note: This appliance requires 8750 cubic feet of available combustion air, or a minimum of 1094 square feet of space with an 8 foot ceiling to operate. If the large amount of air space, which equates to about half of most average sized homes, is not available, the appliance must pull air from outside (see twin pipe system above).

Although it is permissible to draw combustion air from inside the structure, it is not the manufacturer’s recommended installation method. Always install a 3 inch elbow on the top of the combustion air inlet adaptor to prevent foreign objects from falling into the unit.

If a single pipe installation is utilized, follow guidelines
