COMBUSTION AIR SYSTEM
This product is designed for use with any natural gas or LP burning furnace, water heater, or boiler with a 24
VAC control system. The CAS-4 may be used with one 24V-controlled combustion heating appliance and one
30mV standing-pilot gas water heater with the use of an additional CK-20 series control kit. Additional 120V or
24V-controlled appliances may also be served by the CAS-4 with the addition of one CAC-120 or CAC-24 control
kit per each additional appliance (see note)*. The CAS unit mechanically draws air into a structure and disperses it
near the combustion air intake of an appliance. Refer to Diagrams A and B for guidance in setting up the CAS
system based on the size and length of the connecting ductwork and the input rating of the appliance.

1- Motorized Blower
2- Mounting brackets to secure the CAS to a wall
1- 4" x 6" Pipe Increaser Fitting
