VICTORY VSPH Models

When joining the various components of the above listed vent systems, the manufacturers’ instructions should be closely followed to insure proper sealing. Use sealant speci- fied by vent system manufacturer for sealing of pipe and fit- tings. See Figure 4 for proper application of vent pipe sealing for Saf-T vent system by Heat-Fab, Inc. All vent connections must be liquid and pressure tight. Flue vent system CANNOT be cut to length. Consult manufacturer’s instructions. For Heat- Fab system, use slip joint connector to adjust pipe lengths dimensions.

DO NOT use plastic or galvanized flue pipe.

(Consult vent manufacturer’s instructions.)

AIR INTAKE PIPE MATERIAL

3” PVC Schedule 40 or galvanized steel materials are rec- ommended.

All joints must be sealed using appropriate sealants.

FLUE AND AIR INTAKE RESTRICTIONS

1.Maximum allowed equivalent flue and air intake length for different flue systems at different altitudes are given in the tables on page 7.

2.Equivalent of flue or air intake length is sum of the straight pipe lengths and equivalent length of elbows as shown in the table on this page.

3.The vent termination is in addition to the allowed equiva- lent lengths.

4.Minimum flue length is 2 feet.

5.Flue length restriction is for both direct and non-direct vent installations.

EXAMPLE: Boiler model VSPH-180 is to be installed at sea level. The combustion air is provided by air intake piping directly to the boiler (direct-vent installation). Flue piping includes 2 elbows and using Heat-Fab system. Air intake is PVC and includes 3 elbows.

Maximum straight flue length would be 30-2x3=24 feet. Maximum straight air intake pipe would be 40-3x5=25 feet. If the air for combustion were taken from the boiler room (non-direct vent installation), still the maximum straight flue length would be 24 feet.

6.All Victory VSPH boilers are equipped with a built-in condensation drain and trap. The trap loop must be filled with water. DO NOT operate the boiler without filling the trap with water to prevent flue gas discharge into space. The drain should extend to a floor drain or to a container which may require emptying periodically.

7.The horizontal vent pipe must be sloped upward from the boiler at a pitch of at least 1⁄4" per 1 foot of run, so that the condensate from the vent system runs to the drain trap.

8.The horizontal vent pipes must be supported with pipe straps at intervals no greater than indicated by vent pipe manufacturer’s instructions. The vertical portion vent pipe also must be supported per manufacturer’s instructions. Support air intake piping in the same manner as the vent pipes.

9.Minimum clearances of vent pipes from combustible constructions must be maintained (see Page 4). Main- tain minimum 1" clearance between vent pipes and PVC air intake pipes.

10.Common venting with other appliances or another VSPH boiler is not allowed.

11.DO NOT install a vent damper or similar devices in vent system or on the boiler.

12.Do not insulate venting system.

VSPH-180, VSPH-60 specifications

Slant/Fin is a renowned name in the heating industry, renowned for its innovation, quality, and efficiency. Among its popular offerings are the VSPH-180 and VSPH-60, two highly efficient gas-fired residential boilers designed to provide reliable heating for homes.

The VSPH-180 is a high-efficiency residential boiler that delivers exceptional heating performance while being mindful of energy consumption. It operates at an impressive AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating of up to 95%, meaning it uses 95% of the fuel burned for heating, resulting in lower energy bills and reduced environmental impact. The VSPH-180 features a durable stainless steel heat exchanger that not only contributes to its efficiency but also prolongs the boiler's lifespan.

On the other hand, the VSPH-60 is a slightly smaller but equally efficient model that is perfect for apartments or smaller homes. It also boasts a remarkable AFUE rating of up to 95%, ensuring cost-effective heating solutions. The compact design of the VSPH-60 allows for easy installation in various locations, making it a versatile choice for homeowners seeking space-saving options without compromising on performance.

One of the standout technologies in both models is the modulating gas valve, which adjusts the burner’s output to match the heating demand. This feature enhances energy efficiency by preventing the boiler from working harder than necessary, ensuring consistent temperatures and reducing wear on the unit. Furthermore, both models are equipped with a built-in electronic ignition system, eliminating the need for a pilot light and adding convenience for homeowners.

The VSPH series is designed with maintenance ease in mind. It features a user-friendly control panel that provides easy access to critical information, allowing for straightforward diagnostics and service. Regular maintenance can be performed with minimal disruption, enabling owners to keep their systems running optimally throughout the heating season.

In conclusion, the Slant/Fin VSPH-180 and VSPH-60 represent excellence in residential heating technology. With high AFUE ratings, durable construction, and advanced features, both boilers provide efficient and reliable heating solutions, ensuring comfort and energy savings for homeowners.
