GENERAL SYSTEM INFORMATION

This sidewall power venting kit is designed for installations requiring additional ground clearance for high snow

levels and/or low elevation of vent penetration through the wall, and is designed for operation with natural gas,

LP gas and #2 fuel oil appliances. It also features a combustion air inlet for connection to the burner, which

may be used if desired

1. The thermostat (wall thermostat or aquastat) calls for heat and energizes a relay which activates the power

venter. After the venter motor has come up to speed, the pressure switch closes. This closes the circuit to

the burner and allows the burner to fire.

For millivolt controlled water heaters using the CK-20 Series Control Kit, the gas valve pressure switch

activates the power venter at the same time as the burner fires.

After the heating requirement has been satisfied, the thermostat circuit will open and de-activate the

burner and power venter circuit.

For venting systems equipped with a post purge device, the power venter operates for a period of time

after the burner has shut off to purge remaining flue gases.

This device MUST be installed by a qualified agency* in accordance with the manufacturer’s

installation instructions.

The definition of a qualified agency is: any individual, firm, corporation or company which either in

person or through a representative is engaged in, and is responsible for, the installation and operation of

oil appliances, who is experienced in such work, familiar with all the precautions required, and has

complied with all the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

INSTALLATION CAUTION: Failure to install, maintain and/or operate the power venting system in accordance with manufacturer's instructions will result in conditions which may produce bodily injury and/or property damage. 1. Remove power venter from box and inspect unit for damage. If the carton has been crushed or mutilated, check unit very carefully for damage. Rotate blower wheel to insure that the motor and blower wheel rotate freely. DO NOT install if any damage is apparent.

d. 5. 6. Uncoil about 2 feet of the ¼” aluminum CK kit tubing (supplied with CK kit), and attach the straightened end to the pressure port fitting on the back of the riser, using the supplied compression gland and nut (See Install 4). Diagram A Cut a square hole for the tailpiece through the wall to the minimum dimensions given in Table 5, “Installation Hole Dimensions” (note that the tailpiece is offset from the actual termination).

b. Bend the two tabs of the Lower Backing Plate Half outward (See Figure 5) and position it on the inside wall as shown in Figure 6 and install appropriate fasteners through the upper left and lower right corner holes in both plate halves. c. Install an appropriate fastener in the lower left corner hole. d.

VENTING SYSTEM CONNECTIONS 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.
PAGE 8
COMBUSTION AIR DUCT WORK INSTALLATION 1. A maximum of 30 linear feet of 4” duct pipe and two (2) 90° elbows at maximum firing rate may be used (44 equivalent feet). Subtract 7 feet from the maximum linear feet for every additional 90° elbow added. Longer pipe lengths require the use of a larger pipe between the VRV and the intake hood. It also requires the use of a vent pipe increaser at the VRV and a reducer at the intake hood.

Figure 11 Figure 12 CLASS B AND CLASS L DOUBLE WALL VENT PIPE INSTALLATION (Follow vent pipe manufacturer's listed or recommended clearances from combustible material) 1. Using a hand crimper or a like device, crimp the inner pipe of the CV power venter approximately 1" long. (See Figure 7) 2. Attach the vent pipe over the crimped end of the CV power venter inner pipe. 3. Secure the vent pipe to the CV power venter inner pipe with at least (3) three #8 sheet metal screws.

GENERAL INSTALLATION INSPECTION Recommended procedures for safety inspection of an appliance in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code A.N.S.I.Z223.1. The following procedure will help evaluate the venting system. It is intended as a guide to aid in determining that the venting system is properly installed and is in a safe condition for continuous use. This procedure should be recognized as a generalized procedure which cannot anticipate all situations.
