INSTALLATION RESTRICTIONS

1.This device must be installed by a qualified professional installer in accordance with these instructions. If improperly installed, a hazardous condition such as explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning could result.

2.Do not install the Power Venter on incinerators, incinerating toilets, condensing type appliances or solid-fuel burning appliances.

3.The Power Venter shall only be installed on Natural Gas, LP or Oil-fired appliances.

4.Do not install the Power Venter on an appliance with an automatic valve having a manual opener unless the manual opener has been rendered inoperative or the automatic valve has been replaced with a valve not equipped with a manual opener.

5.The Power Venter may only be installed on appliances equipped with a draft hood, draft diverter or barometric draft control.

6.The Power Venter shall not be installed where flue gas temperatures exceed 6000 F. at Power Venter inlet.

FLUE GAS TEMPERATURE VERIFICATION:

A) Consult appliance manufacturer for temperature of gases at the appliance outlet after dilution by draft hood, draft diverter or barometric draft control.

AND

B) Measure temperature of flue gases at the Power Venter inlet at time of installation. Temperature should be measured after appliance and Power Venter have operated for at least 15 minutes, allowing flue gas temperature to stabilize.

Flue gas temperature at Power Venter inlet must not exceed 6000 F.

7.The electrical load controlled through the Fan Proving Switch must not exceed the electrical ratings marked on the Fan Prover.

8.The appliance(s) may only be installed on the suction side of Power Venter.

Improper installation, adjustment, alterations, service or maintenance can cause injury or property damage. Refer to this manual. For assistance or additional information consult a qualified installer, service agency, gas or oil supplier.

CAUTIONS

Failure to install, maintain and/or operate the Power Venter in accordance with manufacturer's instructions may result in conditions which can produce bodily injury and property damage.

The Power Venter must be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with these instructions and all local codes or in their absence in accordance with the latest edition of The National Fuel Gas Code (ANSI Z223.1/NFPA #54), NFPA # 31 Oil Burning Equipment, the latest edition of the National Electrical Code (NFPA#70) and the Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) when applicable. Improper installation can create a hazardous condition such as an explosion, fire, electrical shock or carbon monoxide poisoning resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.

“Qualified Installer” shall mean an individual properly trained and licensed.

Disconnect the power supply when making wiring connections or when working around the fan wheel and motor. Failure to do so can result in electrical shock, personal injury, death or property damage.

1.In order to comply with the UL Listing of the Power Venters the Fan Prover must be wired with the appliance so as to prevent the main burner(s) from firing if the Power Venter malfunctions or the flue is blocked. It is not safe to use the Power Venter on millivolt appliances, such as water heaters which employ a combination gas valve/temperature controller, since the Fan Prover can not be wired as described in this booklet. Millivolt appliances require additional, accessory controls.

2.Plan the vent system so that Code required distances are maintained from plumbing and wiring.

3.The Power Venter motor shaft must be mounted horizontally to ensure proper operation of the Fan Proving Switch and prevent motor bearing wear.

4.Make certain the power supply is adequate for the fan motor requirements. Do not add the Power Venter to a circuit where the total load is unknown.

5.The installer must verify that the BTU/hr. input of the appliance does not exceed the recommended input of the Power Venter. See selection table on page 1 of these instructions for sizing information.

6.Flue gas temperatures must not exceed 6000 F. at the Power Venter inlet. Ambient temperatures surrounding Power Venter must not exceed 1040 F. See “Flue Gas Temperature Verification”, item # 6 above.

7.“Safety Inspection Of a Previously Used Appliance” (Page 3) must be performed before installation on previously used equipment.

SAFETY INSPECTION OF A PREVIOUSLY USED GAS APPLIANCE

(Perform prior to Power Venter installation)

The following procedure is intended as a guide to aid in determining that an appliance is properly installed and is in safe condition for continuing use.

The following procedure is based on central furnace and boiler installations and it should be recognized that generalized procedures cannot anticipate all situations. Accordingly, in some cases deviation from this procedure may be necessary to determine safe operation of the equipment.

a.Perform this procedure prior to any attempt at modifications of the appliance or installation of the Power Venter.

b.If it is determined there is a condition which could result in unsafe operation, shut off the appliance and advise the owner of the unsafe condition.

Follow the steps below in making the safety inspection:

1.Conduct a gas leakage test of the appliance piping and control system downstream of the shutoff valve in the supply line to the appliance.

2.Visually inspect the venting system and determine there is no blockage or restriction, leakage, corrosion and other deficiencies which could cause an unsafe condition.

3.Shut off all gas to the appliance(s).

4.Inspect burners and crossovers for blockage and corrosion.

5.Applicable only to furnaces: Inspect heat exchanger for cracks, openings or excessive corrosion. Check both the limit control and fan control for proper operation.

6.Applicable only to boilers: Inspect for evidence of water or combustion product leaks. Determine that the water pumps are in operating condition. Test low water cutoffs, automatic feed controls, pressure and temperature limit controls and relief valves in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations to determine that they are in operating order.

INSTALLATION

 

VENT SYSTEM TERMINATION

 

Before installing Power Venter determine location of vent system termination.

 

 

TOOLS REQUIRED

 

• Saber Saw or Cement Drill

• Drill

• 1/8” and 1/4” Drill Bits

• Wood or Masonry Chisel

• Blade Screwdriver or 1/4” Nut Driver

• Wire Cutter/Stripper

For oil installations do not terminate HS-Series Power Venters on vinyl siding because temperatures can easily exceed 1500F. The SideShot® is the only Tjernlund Power Venter recommended for termination on vinyl siding when using oil.

NOTE: Termination of a Side Wall Vent System with a device other than the Tjernlund VH1 Series Vent Hood could affect system performance and result in a possible safety hazard. Consult Vent Hood instructions for complete installation details.

If possible, locate the Vent Hood on a wall that does not face the direction of prevailing winds. This will diminish the possibility of appliance interruption during periods of extreme winds and prevent oil odors caused by backdrafts.

If possible, locate the Vent Hood no closer than 3 feet from an inside corner of an L-shaped structure.

CODE REQUIREMENTS

Terminate the vent system so that proper minimum clearances are maintained as cited in the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code (NFPA # 54) and the latest edition of NFPA #211, or as follows:

Not be less than 7 feet above grade when located adjacent to public walk ways.

At least 3 feet above any forced air inlet located within 10 feet.

At least 4 feet below, 4 feet horizontally from or 1 foot above any door, window or gravity air inlet into any building.

At least 12 inches above grade.

So that the flue gases are not directed so as to jeopardize people, overheat combustible structures or enter buildings, and

Not less than 2 feet from an adjacent building.
