Each 90° bend reduces the maximum horizontal vent run by 3.6 m (12 feet) and each 45°
bend in the vent run reduces the maximum vent run by 1.8 m (6 feet). See Table 7 (page 29)
for the maximum vent length using one 90° bend.
After installation, installer must check for correct and safe operation of the heater.
COMBUSTION AIR SUPPLY
For indoor installation, the heater location
must provide sufficient air supply for proper
combustion and ventilation of the surrounding area
(in accordance with AS/NZS 5263.1.12:2019.
The minimum requirements for the air supply
specify that the room in which a heater is installed
should be provided with two permanent air
supply openings; one within 30 cm (12 in) of
the ceiling, the other within 30 cm (12in) of the
floor for combustion air, in accordance with the
AS/NZS 5601.1 as applicable, and any local
codes that may apply. These openings shall
directly, or through duct, connect to outdoor air.
Pentair does not recommend indoor
installations that do not provide combustion
air from outside the building.
Chemicals should not be stored near the heater installation. Combustion air can be contaminated by corrosive
chemical fumes which can void the warranty.
