INTRODUCTION

The Power Vent Inline (PVI-SLP) is certiﬁ ed for use only on ﬁ replaces manufactured by Hearth & Home Technologies

with IPI (intermittent pilot ignition) gas controls and is for use only on top-vented applications. Fireplaces equipped with millivolt type gas controls CANNOT use this product.

Note: The battery back-up feature of the IPI system is removed when the PVI-SLP power vent is installed. The ﬁ replace may no longer be operated with battery back-up.

Hearth & Home Technologies • Power Vent Inline (PVI-SLP) Instructions • 2196-900 Rev. AC • 12/15

The PVI-SLP operates on 120VAC, 60Hz electrical service which is supplied at the ﬁ replace junction box.

IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL NOTE: When the control being used to run the ﬁ replace is activated, a 120 second delay will occur before ignition occurs. This is to allow a pre-purge by the PVI-SLP. If ﬁ replace does not light after 135 seconds, refer to the Troubleshooting section of this instruction for further direction. If an RC100, RC200 or RC300 remote is being used, there will also be a 20 minute post-purge in which the PVI-SLP will continue to run after appliance is turned off.

B. Installation of PVI-SLP

1. INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS

a. This device must be installed by a qualiﬁ ed installer

in accordance with these instructions.

b. Safety inspection of the venting system should

be performed before and after installation of this power vent. Consult local code ofﬁ cials and follow applicable installation codes.

c. DO NOT INSTALL DAMAGED EQUIPMENT OR

VENT COMPONENTS.

d. Disconnect electrical power supply before making

wiring connections.

e. Venting of more than one appliance in a common

vent system is prohibited.

f. Clearances between the vent pipe and combustible

materials must be maintained at 1-1/2-inch top, 1-inch sides and bottom.

g. All outer pipe joints must be sealed with high tem-

perature silicone. See Section 2.A.

h. The access panel opening must be located such

that access for service and adjustment is available. The NEC requires a minimum of 30 inches of space around the opening and 36 inches in front of the opening to the access panel. Consult ofﬁ cials hav- ing jurisdiction regarding regional requirements.

CAUTION! Failure to install, operate, and maintain the power venting system in accordance with manufacturer's instructions will result in conditions which may produce bodily injury and/or property damage.

NOTICE: The blower motors present in this powervent will generate sound during operation. The effects of the increased sound level can be minimized with careful planning during installation of the system. Locating the powervent service access grill in an area remote of immediate living space will reduce the effects of the added sound generated during operation.

2. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

WARNING: RISK OF FIRE AND BURNS. DO NOT install PVI-SLP with the access panel facing upward. Overheating may occur.

NOTICE: Installation of the PVI-SLP in an attic is not recommended in regions where temperatures reach 0°F (-18°C) and relative humidity exceeds 60% simultaneously. Low temperatures and high moisture content may cause the PVI-SLP to freeze.

a. If the PVI-SLP is being installed in a conﬁ ned space

(such as a utility closet, mechanical room or attic space) with a total volume less than 250 cubic feet, an access hole with minimum dimensions of 8 inches by 16 inches will be required directly in front of the access panel. The recommended access hole size is 12 inches by 17 inches. This size will allow full access to the 11 inch x 16 inch access panel on the PVI-SLP. See Figure 3.1. The conﬁ ned space where the PVI is installed, and the space to which the access hole opens, must add up to at least 250 cubic feet. This hole may be covered with a decorative cover as long as the cover has a minimum of 50% open air. If the PVI-SLP is being installed in a space greater than 250 cubic feet the access hole is still required, but a solid cover may be used. This also applies to a ﬁ replace chase.

The decorative cover CANNOT be located on an outside

wall that is open to the environment.

b. For installations near loose-ﬁ ll insulation (such as attics)

a minimum clearance of six inches must be maintained between the access panel and the insulation.

c. The PVI-SLP CANNOT be installed with the access

panel facing upward.

d. The exit termination of mechanical draft systems shall

not be less than seven feet above grade when located adjacent to public walkways.

e. A mechanical drafting venting system shall terminate at least

three feet above any forced air inlet located within 10 feet.

Vent Information and Diagrams

A. Installation of Vent Pipe

For information on standard procedures for venting the

appliance, refer to the "Vent Information and Diagrams"

section of the appliance installation manual.

For the allowable pipe lengths and elbow combinations for an appliance utilizing the PVI-SLP, consult the Power Vent diagrams in the Vent Information and Diagrams section of the appliance installation manual. The PVI-SLP uses SLP pipe (6-5/8 inch) connections for both the inlet and outlet.

The following termination caps are available for use with the power vent inline (PVI-SLP): SLP-TVHW, SLP-LPC, SLP-TRAP, SLP-HHW2, SLP-HRC-SS, SLP-HRC-ZCSS, SLP-TB1. Check installation manual for termination caps speciﬁ cations.

In certain cases, a pipe adapter may be used in the vent run. The DVP-2SL adapts from 5 in. / 8 in. DVP series starting collars to 4 in. / 6-5/8 in. SLP series vent pipe.

Either SLP or DVP venting may be used throughout the vent run except on certain models that require DVP pipe. See Table 2.1. Refer to Section 2.B for more information regarding venting regulations.

B. Vent/Pipe Regulations

WARNING! Risk of Fire!

Maintain minimum pipe length between appliance and PVI-SLP on all models. Combustible materials surrounding pipe may overheat.

1. A minimum length of venting is required between the appliance and the PVI-SLP. This minimum length requirement varies for the speciﬁ c appliance. Refer to Table 2.1. for requirements for speciﬁ c models. Once the minimum length requirement is met, the PVI-SLP may be installed at any location within the vent run conﬁ guration.

2. A minimum of 18 inches is required between the PVISLP and the termination cap to allow room for the pipe to go through a wall or roof.

3. If PVI-SLP is installed in the vertical position, a minimum of two 90 degree elbows and two feet of pipe is required between the appliance and the PVI-SLP.

4. Total allowable length decreases by 2 ft. for every 1 ft. of vertical drop.

Note: See Table 2.1 for model speciﬁ c vent requirements.

SLP pipe may be used on the termination side of the PVI.

All outer pipe joints must be sealed with high temperature silicone (with a minimum of 300ºF continuous exposure rating), including the slip section that connects directly to the horizontal termination cap.

• Apply a bead of silicone sealant inside the female outer pipe joint prior to joining sections. See Figure 2.1.

• Only outer pipes need to be sealed. All unit collar, pipe, slip section, elbow and cap outer ﬂ ues shall be sealed in this manner, unless otherwise stated.

B. Vent/Pipe Regulations (continued)

WARNING! Risk of Fire!

• PVI-SLP cannot be installed directly on appliance. The PVI-SLP and combustible materials surrounding vent pipe may overheat.

• A minimum length run of initial vent pipe is required between the appliance and the inlet of the PVI-SLP. The initial minimum vent run requirement varies depending on the speciﬁ c appliance and its venting conﬁ guration.

• Some models require DVP Series pipe for the initial minimum vent section directly off the appliance.
