CONNECTING POWER VENTER TO APPLIANCE

Venting system should be installed and supported in accordance with the National Flue Gas Code A.N.S.I.Z223.1, or in accordance with any local codes. A vent pipe connector shall be supported for the design and weight of the material employed, to maintain clearances, prevent physical damage and separation of joints. A vent pipe increaser or reducer may be required for connecting the power venter to the vent system. If needed, place the reducer close to the power venter. Smaller vent pipe sizes than a chimney-vented system may be used for the vent system.

If mounting venting system near combustible materials, refer to Diagram B for allowable installation clearances. Clearances are based on an installation using single wall galvanized steel vent pipe. For metal thickness of galvanized steel pipe connectors, refer to NFPA 211 or NFPA 54 Standards for guidelines. If manufactured double wall vent pipe is required or used for the installation, clearance should be based on the vent pipes rated clearance. Always check local code requirements for code restrictions.

Route the vent pipe from the appliance to the power venter using a minimum number of elbows as possible. The horizontal section of the vent pipe should have a slight upward slope from the appliance to the power venter. For clearances to combustible materials, multiple appliance venting and other installation requirements, refer to the National Fuel Gas Code A.N.S.I.Z223.1, and/or any applicable local codes or appliance manufacturer's installation instructions.

Use a PEK series extension kit or follow installation method below for a double pipe system. To

 

install an outer pipe extension to the SWG power venter, the end pipe cover on the power venter

 

must be removed. Then, cut a 1-inch square notch into the vent pipe extension before attaching

 

the power venter. (See Figure 5) This allows clearance for the adjustment damper. Install the

 

needed pipe extensions and terminate the outer pipe extension with the end pipe cover (see

 

Diagram B). The table above shows minimum allowable clearances when using single or double

 

pipe systems. When the outer pipe is extended over the inner pipe, use the double pipe

Figure 5

guidelines when determining clearances. Figure 6 shows how the airflow pattern through an

SWG reduces the required clearances to combustibles. NOTE: Vent pipe joints should be

 

secured with at least (3) three sheet metal screws.

The stainless steel construction not only enhances durability but also provides a sleek, professional appearance that suits various installations.

The SWGII utilizes advanced ultraviolet (UV) light technology to eliminate harmful pathogens such as bacteria, mold, and viruses from the air. By integrating UV-C light within the system, it effectively reduces the microbial load, providing a healthier environment without the use of harmful chemicals. This makes it particularly beneficial for hospitals, schools, and other establishments that prioritize cleanliness and hygiene.

In terms of efficiency, the SWG series is engineered to work seamlessly with existing HVAC systems, enhancing air circulation while minimizing energy consumption. The models are equipped with features that allow for variable airflow adjustments, ensuring optimal performance depending on the setting. This adaptability not only improves user comfort but also contributes to significant energy savings over time.

Another notable characteristic of the SWG and SWG Stainless is their user-friendly interface and straightforward installation process. Field Controls has prioritized ease of use, allowing for quick setup and minimal maintenance requirements. This is particularly advantageous for contractors and end-users alike, as it reduces downtime and maintenance costs.

Additionally, the SWG series is designed with environmental considerations in mind. By reducing reliance on traditional methods of air purification and promoting energy efficiency, these systems align with contemporary sustainability practices, making them an ideal choice for eco-conscious consumers and businesses.

In summary, Field Controls SWGII, SWG Stainless, and the broader SWG series represent a significant leap in air quality technology, combining durability, efficiency, and health-focused features into a single system. With their advanced UV technology, robust construction, and user-friendly design, these units are transforming the way we think about indoor air quality.
