Residential Gas Water Heaters
State Select® Power-Vent 40-gallon and 50-gallon gas water heaters now feature patented C3 Technology® 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
in many replacement applications where a conventional vertical-vent model is not a practical option and offers versatility for
placement of gas water heaters in residential new construction.
Enhanced Power-Vent Capabilities
• For greater versatility than ever before, system allows combined horizontal
and vertical vent runs up to 120 equivalent feet with 3" pipe, up to 160
equivalent feet with 4" pipe on 40,000 BTU and 50,000 BTU models
• 40 and 50-gallon models vent using 2", 3" or 4" Schedule 40 PVC, CPVC
or ABS pipe
• Supplied with termination screens and elbow
• See next page for complete information on vent capabilities
™

Flammable Vapor Ignition Resistant C3 Technology
®
Water Heaters
Corderite Combustion Containment (C3) design meets American National
Standards Institute standards (ANS Z21.10.1) that deal with the accidental or
unintended ignition of flammable vapors, such as those emitted by gasoline.
Covered by four U.S. patents, C3 Technology 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.
For Additional Technical Information,
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.
