IT CAN ALSO CREATE A RISK OF ASPHYXIATION. COMBUSTION AIR AND EXHAUST WARNING WHEN DETERMINING THE INSTALLATION LOCATION FOR A POWER DIRECT VENT WATER HEATER, SNOW ACCUMULATION AND DRIFTING SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN AREAS WHERE APPLICABLE. VENTING CLEARANCES VENTING THROUGH AN OUTSIDE WALL-CLEARANCES • 1" (2.5 cm) clearance for 4" or 6" PVC or CPVC piping from combustiblesurfaces for outlet piping. • 0" clearance for 4" or 6" PVC or CPVC piping from combustible surfacesfor inlet piping. • 18" (46 cm) minimum in all directions from any obstruction, such as a wall, that may interfere. • 18" (46 cm) minimum from the ground and 9" from ceiling overhangs. See Figure 7. • The Power Direct Vent outlet terminal shall terminate a least 36" (91 cm) above any forced air inlet located within 10 feet. See Figure 8. • The Power Direct Vent outlet terminal shall terminate at least 36" (91 cm) below, 36" (91 cm) horizontally from or 18" (46 cm) above any door, window or gravity air inlet into the building. See Figure 8. • 18" (46 cm) minimum from other natural draft (gravity) direct vent, powervent orpower direct vent appliance inlet and/or outlet vent(s) when directlyabove or 135° to either side of center line. See Figure 9. • 36" (91 cm) minimum from any appliance inlet and / or outlet vents whendirectly below or 45° to either side of center line. See Figure 9. • Vent termination must not be within 4 feet of any items such as gasmeters, gas valves or other gas regulating equipment. • The venting system must be installed in a manner which allows inspectionof the installation of the venting pipes and joints as well as periodicinspection after installation as required by ANSI Standards. 10 WARNING THE LOCATION SELECTED MUST PROVIDE CLEARANCES FOR SERVICING AND PROPER OPERATION OF THE WATER HEATER. WARNING VENT TERMINATION MUSTNOTBEWITHIN 4 FEETOFANY ITEMS SUCH AS GAS METERS, GAS VALVES OR OTHER GAS REGULATING EQUIPMENT. WARNING FAILURE TO HAVE REQUIRED CLEARANCES BETWEEN WATER HEATER AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL WILL RESULTIN A FIRE HAZARD. FIGURE 7 FACTS TO CONSIDER ABOUT THE LOCATION VENTING THROUGH ROOF-CLEARANCES • 1" (2.5 cm) clearance for 4" or 6" PVC or CPVC piping fromcombustible surfaces for outlet piping. • 0" clearance for 4" or 6" PVC or CPVC piping from combustiblesurfaces for inlet piping. • The Power Direct Vent inlet and outlet terminals shall terminate at least 18" (46 cm) above the roof surface. See Figure 10. • The venting system must be installed in a manner which allows inspection of the installation of the venting pipes and joints as well as periodic inspection after installation as required by ANSI Standards. FIGURE 9 WIRE FENCE When the water heater outlet terminal is low enough to be touched accidentally, or is accessible to small children, a wire mesh chain link fence (as shown in Figure 9) may be used. Care should be taken to maintain adequate ventilation around the outlet terminal. If a chain link fence is installed, it must not be used as a storage area for items that may block proper ventilation. FIGURE 9 FIGURE 8 - DIRECT VENT TERMINAL CLEARANCES - US INSTALLATION 11 FIGURE 10 WATER PIPING WARNING HOTTER WATER CAN SCALD: WATER HEATERS ARE INTENDED TO PRODUCE HOT WATER. WATER HEATED TO A TEMPERATURE WHICH WILL SATISFY CLOTHES WASHING, DISH WASHING, AND OTHER SANITIZING NEEDS CAN SCALD AND PERMANENTLY INJURE YOU UPON CONTACT. SOME PEOPLE ARE MORE LIKELY TO BE PERMANENTLY INJURED BY HOT WATER THAN OTHERS. THESE INCLUDE THE ELDERLY, CHILDREN, THE INFIRM, OR PHYSICALLY/ MENTALLY HANDICAPPED. IF ANYONE USING HOT WATER IN YOUR HOME FITS INTO ONE OF THESE GROUPS OR IF THERE IS A LOCAL CODE OR STATE LAW REQUIRING A CERTAIN TEMPERATURE WATER AT THE HOT WATER TAP, THEN YOU MUST TAKE SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS. IN ADDITION TO USING THE LOWEST POSSIBLE TEMPERATURE SETTING THAT SATISFIES YOUR HOT WATER NEEDS, A MEANS SUCH AS A MIXING VALVE, SHOULD BE USED AT THE HOT WATER TAPS USED BY THESE PEOPLE OR AT THE WATER HEATER. MIXING VALVES ARE AVAILABLE AT PLUMBING SUPPLY OR HARDWARE STORES. FOLLOW MANUFACTURERS INSTRUCTIONS FOR INSTALLATION OF THE VALVES. BEFORE CHANGING THE FACTORY SETTING ON THE THERMOSTAT, READ THE "TEMPERATURE REGULATION" SECTION IN THIS MANUAL. This water heater shall not be connected to any heating systems or component(s) used with a non-potable water heating appliance. If a water heater is installed in a closed water supply system, such as one having a back-flow preventer, check valve, water meter with check valve, etc... in the cold water supply, means shall be provided to control thermal expansion. Contact the water supplier or plumbing contractor on how to control this situation. NOTE: To protect against untimely corrosion of hot and cold water fittings, it is strongly recommended that dielectric unions or couplings be installed on this water heater when connected to copper pipe. NOTE: If using copper tubing, solder tubing to an adapter before attaching the adapter to the cold water inlet connecti...
