Flues supported only by flashing and extended above
the roof more than 5 ft should be securely guyed or
braced to withstand snow and wind loads.
The air inlet opening MUST be installed 1 ft above the
roof line or above normal snow levels that might ob-
struct combustion air flow. This dimension is critical to
the correct operation of the heater and venting system
and reduces the chance of blockage from snow. The
vent cap must have a minimum 3 ft vertical clearance
from the air inlet opening.
Outdoor Installation
Outdoor models are self-venting when installed with
the optional factory-supplied outdoor vent kit and re-
quire no additional vent piping. A special vent cap, flow
switch cover and air intake hood are provided in accor-
dance with CSA requirements, which must be installed
directly on the heater. Correct clearances can be
found earlier in this section.
Care must be taken when locating the heater out-
doors, because the flue gases discharged from the
vent cap can condense as they leave the cap.
Improper location can result in damage to adjacent
structures or building finish. For maximum efficiency
and safety, the following precautions must be
observed:
1. Outdoor models must be installed outdoors and
must use the outdoor vent cap, flow switch cover
and air intake hood available from the manufac-
turer (sales order option D-11).
2. Periodically check venting system. The heater’s
venting areas must never be obstructed in any
way and minimum clearances must be observed
to prevent restriction of combustion and ventilation
air. Keep area clear and free of combustible and
flammable materials.
3. Do not locate adjacent to any window, door walk-
way, or gravity air intake. The vent must be
located a minimum of 4 ft horizontally from such
areas.
4. Install above grade level and above normal snow
levels.
5. Vent terminal must be at least 3 ft above any
forced air inlet located within 10 ft.
6. Adjacent brick or masonry surfaces must be pro-
tected with a rust-resistant sheet metal plate.
Freeze Protection
When installing this heater in an outdoor location that
is susceptible to freezing, sales order option B-22
must be ordered. The B-22 option energizes the
heater pump at a preset temperature drop to circulate
water and reduces the possibility of freezing and dam-
aging the heat exchanger or headers.
Controls
NOTE: Condensate can freeze on the vent cap.
Frozen condensate on the vent cap can result in a
blocked flue condition.
NOTE: The vent cap, flow switch cover and air
intake hood must be furnished by the heater
manufacturer in accordance with its listing (sales
order option D-11).
WARNING: Installation, adjustment and service of
heater controls, including timing of various operating
functions, must be performed by a qualified installer,
service agency or the gas supplier. Failure to do so
may result in control damage, heater malfunction,
property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING: Turn off the power to the heater before
installation, adjustment or service of the CPW board
or any heater controls. Failure to do so may result in
board damage, heater malfunction, property
damage, personal injury, or death.
CAUTION: This appliance has provisions to be
connected to more than one supply source. To
reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect all such
connections before servicing.
CAUTION: Risk of electric shock: More than one
disconnect switch may be required to de-energize
the equipment before servicing.
