GENERAL INFORMATION
These Installation Instructions must be used in conjunction with the appliance and appropriate PVA adapter kit Installation Instructions. Clearances listed in these Instructions supersede those in the appliance's Installation Instructions.
Power venting of direct vent appliances may result in the reduction of efficiencies by as much as ten percent. Consider this in making any venting and heating decisions in any installation application.
SELECTING AND INSTALLING THE APPLIANCE
When selecting a gas appliance for use with the GPV, take into consideration the various requirements and limitations in the venting installation section for the following models:
Models Equipped with an Intermittent Pilot Ignition (I.P.I.)
It is recommended that the GPV be used with a gas appliance equipped with an Intermittent Pilot Ignition (I.P.I.). Downward vertical vent runs are permitted with an I.P.I. system. See venting section in appropriate PVA Installation Instructions.
Models Equipped with Millivolt/ Standing Pilot
Downward vertical vent runs are not permitted with a standing pilot system. See venting section in appropriate PVA Installation Instructions.
INSTALLATION TO BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED INSTALLER to conform with local codes. In absence of local codes install to the current National Building Code in Canada or to regional building codes in the United States. It must be electrically connected and grounded in accordance with local codes. In the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 CANADIAN ELECTRICAL CODE in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 NATIONAL ELECTRIC CODE in the United States.
The GPV operates on 120 VAC 60 HZ electrical service which is supplied at the firebox junction box.
gas appliances where typical vent
configurations cannot be achieved.

REFER TO POWER VENT ADAPTER KIT (PVA) FOR SPECIFIC VENTING INSTRUCTIONS.
NOTE: If equipped, ACS switch must be disabled if there is any downward venting. Downward venting is not allowed with appliances that use standing pilots.
1.4 POWER VENT TERMINAL
1.4.1 TERMINAL INSTALLATION
This application occurs when venting through an exterior wall. Having determined the correct height for the terminal location, cut and frame a hole in the exterior wall as illustrated to accommodate the GPV.
A. Remove the electrical access plate from the frame assembly, then
remove the knock out from this plate.
B. Insert the wiring through the electrical access plate and engage the
conduit bushing. Re-secure this plate. NOTE: The GPV includes a
20 foot (6.1m) wire harness cable. If this cable does not reach the appliance, then it may be cut and a splice added. These
connections must conform with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, use the current CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code in Canada or the ANSI/NFPA 70 National Electrical Code in the United States.

C. Remove terminal access cover, see “INSTALLATION OVERVIEW” for
location and route cable through terminal.
D. Assemble gas power vent terminal to frame assembly.
E. Connect the male and female connectors.
F. Replace terminal access cover.
NOTE: Where possible, it is strongly recommended to have an access panel inside the building for servicing the unit.

A. Stretch the inner fl ex pipe to the required length taking
into account the additional length needed for the fi nished wall surface. Slip the vent pipe a minimum of 3” (76.2mm) over the inner sleeve of the terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws. Apply a heavy bead of the high temperature sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not supplied).
B. Using the outer fl ex pipe, slide over the outer
combustion air sleeve of the terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws. Seal using high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied).

F. If more vent pipe needs to be used to reach the appliance, couple
them together as illustrated. The vent system must be supported
approximately every 3 feet (0.9m) for both vertical and horizontal
runs. Use noncombustible strapping to maintain the minimum
clearance to combustibles.
G. Install the reducer (if required) or vent and
properly secure and seal to the unit using high
temperature sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not
supplied).
1.4.3 INITIAL FIRING PROCEDURES
ALWAYS LIGHT THE PILOT WHETHER FOR THE FIRST TIME OR IF THE GAS SUPPLY HAS RUN OUT WITH THE GLASS DOOR OPENED OR REMOVED. PURGE SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY A
QUALIFIED SERVICE TECHNICIAN. ASSURE THAT A CONTINUOUS GAS FLOW IS AT THE BURNER
BEFORE CLOSING THE DOOR. ENSURE ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
