DIRECT INTAKE VENT SYSTEM

This water heater may be converted to a direct-vent (sealed combustion) appliance by installing
an adapter (Part No. 9007669005 (TM-DV50)) which will bring all required combustible air from
outside the building. When installing the direct-vent conversion kit, please follow all instructions
included with the kit.

 The water heater must be installed in a location where the proper amount of combustible

air will be available to it at all times without obstructions.

 If used as a direct-vent appliance, the water heater requires a 5” combustible air supply

pipe. The intake pipe must be sealed airtight.

 Air supply pipe can be made of ABS, PVC, galvanized steel, corrugated aluminum,

corrugated stainless steel or Category III stainless steel.

 Change the dipswitch settings to the direct-vent system. (See diagram below)
 Sidewall venting is recommended for the direct-vent system.
 The manufacturer recommends running the exhaust vent and the intake pipe parallel.
