COMBUSTION AND VENTILATION AIR SUPPLY CAUTION: Combustion air must not be contaminated by corrosive chemical fumes which can damage the heater and void the warranty. IMPORTANT: Adequate air must be provided for proper combustion and ventilation of the surrounding area. An inadequate supply of combustion air will result in incomplete combustion and eventual sooting of the heater. Insufficient ventilation will cause excessive heat and rapid deterioration of electronic and electrical components.

MOUNTING On vertical vents, the vent damper may be mounted with the actuator in any position. On horizontal vents, do not mount the actuator either directly above or directly below the vent pipe; mount the vent damper actuator to the side of the vent. The vent damper is set up for a continuous pilot system. If the vent damper is installed on an intermittent Pilot or Direct Spark Ignition equipped system, the energy savings of the vent damper can be improved by plugging the hole in the vent dam
