Residential Power Vent Gas Water Heaters
State Select® Power Vent 40 and 50-gallon gas water heaters now feature a patented FVIR Compliant design,
which meets Phase II of the ANSI Z21.10.1 standards for flammable vapor ignition resistance. A power vent water
heater is an excellent alternative for many replacement applications where a conventional vertical vent model is not
a practical option and offers versatility for installations of gas water heaters in residential new construction.

Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant (FVIR) Gas Water Heaters
Design meets American National Standards Institute standards
(ANSI Z21.10.1 - 10.3 - CSA 4.1 - 4.3) that deal with the accidental or unintended ignition
of flammable vapors, such as those emitted by gasoline.
Covered by four U.S. patents, FVIR gas water heaters feature a sealed combustion chamber with air intake screen and a fireproof Corderite flame arrestor built into the
water heater base. Select® Power Vent water heaters are also equipped with a flammable
vapor sensor, which automatically shuts down the blower, Intelli-Vent™ gas control and hot
surface ignitor if the presence of flammable vapors is detected.
State Industries, Inc. reserves the right to make product changes or improvements without prior notice.
If flammable vapors
accidentally enter the
combustion chamber,
the Corderite flame
arrestor is designed
so flames burn off the
top surface and
cannot escape down
through the arrestor.
