direct vent wall furnace.
Instructions to Installer
1. Installer must leave instruction manual with owner after installation.
2. Installer must have owner fill out and mail warranty card supplied with furnace.
3. Installer should show owner how to start and operate furnace
and thermostat.
Warning:
Any change to this furnace or its control can be danger
ous. This is a heating appliance and any panel, door or
guard removed for servicing an appliance must be replaced prior to operating the appliance.
General Information
This furnace is design certified in accordance with American National Standard/CSA Standard Z21.86 and CSA 2.32 by the Canadian Standards Association as a direct vent wall furnace to be
installed according to these instructions.
Any alteration of the original design, installed other than as
shown in these instructions or use with a type of gas not shown
on the rating plate is the responsibility of the person and com
pany making the change.
Notice: During initial firing of this unit, its paint will bake out and
smoke will occur. To prevent triggering of smoke alarms, ventilate the room in which the unit is installed.
Installation in Residential Garages
Gas utilization equipment in residential garages shall be installed
so that all burners and burner ignition devices are located not less
than 18" above the floor. Such equipment shall be located, or
protected, so it is not subject to physical damage by a moving
vehicle.
Qualified Installing Agency
Installation and replacement of gas piping, gas utilization equip
ment or accessories and repair and servicing of equipment shall
be performed by a qualified agency. The term “qualified agency”
means any individual, firm, corporation or company which either
in person or through a representative is engaged in and is responsible for (1) the installation or replacement of gas piping or (2) the
connection, installation, repair or servicing of equipment, who is
experienced in such work, familiar with all precautions required
and has complied with all the requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.
State of Massachusetts: The installation must be made by a
licensed plumber or gas fitter in the Commonwealth of Mas
sachusetts. The state of Massachusetts requires that a flexible
appliance connector cannot exceed three feet in length.
-
-
The installation must conform with local codes or, in the absence
of local codes, with the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI Z223.1/
NFPA 54* Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CSA
B149.1.
*Available from the American National Standards Institute, Inc., 11 West 42nd St.,
New York, N.Y. 10036.
The vent terminal of a direct vent appliance, with an input of
10,000 Btu per hour (3 kW) or less shall be located at least 6"
(150mm) from any air opening into a building, and such an appliance with an input over 10,000 Btu per hour (3 kW) but not
over 50,000 Btu per hour (14.7 kW) shall be installed with a 9"
(229mm) vent terminal clearance and the bottom of the vent terminal and the air intake shall be located at least 12" (305mm)
above grade.
WARNING: The nearest point of the vent cap should be
a minimum horizontal distance of six (6) feet (1.8m) from
any pressure regulator. In case of regulator malfunction,
the six (6) feet (1.8m) distance will reduce the chance of
gas entering the vent cap.

Wing
Screw
Plastic wall anchor
Wall bracket
Piezo cable
WARNING: Any change to this heater or its control can be dangerous. Provide adequate clearances and
accessibility for purposes of servicing and proper operation.
A manufactured home (USA only) installation must conform with the Manufactured Home Construction and Safety Standard, Title 24
CFR, Part 3280 or, when such standard is not applicable, the Standard for Manufactured Home Installations, ANSI Z225.1.
Due to high surface temperature, keep children, clothing, and furniture away. Keep burner and control compartments clean. See instal
lation and operating instructions accompanying heater.
INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
WARNING: Improper installation, adjustments, alteration, service, or maintenance can cause property damage, personal injury
or loss of life.
Refer to the owner’s information manual provided with this appliance. Installation and service must be performed by a qualified
installer, service agency, or the gas supplier.
These wall furnace models are designed for direct venting through a wall. Only venting components approved for these furnaces may
be used.
Mark the venting system hole location (as indicated on page 8) and the four holes through
the wall bracket. Drill accordingly. Insert the
four wall anchors provided and tighten the wall
bracket firmly. Use special anchor fasteners if
the heater is to be installed on a wooden (hollow) wall. Pull out the control knob, slide the
front cabinet up and out from the rest of the
heater, and disconnect the sparker from the
piezoelectric igniter. Slide the rear panel lower
edge into the wall bracket fingers, and complete
by tightening the four wing nuts. Reconnect
the piezo cable, and complete the assembly.
The heater is now ready to receive the venting
system assembly from the opposite side of the
wall.
-
IMPORTANT: The venting system must be properly installed to insure proper and safe operation. The venting system
must also be properly re-installed and re-sealed to insure proper and safe operation.

This unit is to be installed on wall from 4" to
11.75" thick.
The cap has a hole to insert
the threaded rod easily
through the assembly.
IMPORTANT: The appliance’s venting system should be inspected at least once a year and immediately cleaned if necessary.
Insert the threaded rod (from the other side of the wall) through the
air inlet conduit, tightening it to the combustion chamber support.
Place the air inlet ring around the tube sealing it against the spacer.
Insert the cap through the rod and tighten firmly using the blind nut
and washer.
Failure to position these parts in accordance with diagram or
failure to use only parts specifically approved with these appli
-
ances may result in property damage or personal injury.
Note: Vinyl siding vent kit, HW822DV, is available from Empire
Comfort Systems, Inc. The depth is 3" (76mm), which enables the
vent cap to be extended away from vinyl siding or projections. The
wall depth plus the additional 3" (76mm) depth of the vinyl siding
vent cap extension should not exceed a total depth of 11.75" (330mm)
for HW130DV and HW180DV.
Warning: When vinyl siding vent kit, HW822DV is added to an
existing installation (furnace is installed) do not attempt to add
sections of pipe to the flue outlet tube or air inlet tube. An air tight
seal is required for both tubes. Refer to Parts List, page 22 to order
tubes.
