Preparations For Vent And Draining Option - Napoleon 9600 SERIES Installation And Operating Instructions Manual

Condensate trap comes pre-assembled with the barbed hose fi ttings installed. For upfl ow installations only,
removal of the larger 5/8" barbed fi tting is required prior to placement of condensate trap. Reinstall fi tting after
fi nal placement of condensate trap.
Affi x the condensate trap assembly to the interior of the side panel in the blower compartment for upfl ow
positions; the interior of the side panel in the burner compartment for downfl ow positions. For horizontal
positions affi x the condensate trap assembly to the exterior side panels.
Three plastic drain hose clamps are provided in the parts bag. The large one is used for securing the drain
hose to the front manifold cover drain outlet. The medium one (white) is used for securing the drain hose to
the 5/8" barbed fi tting on the condensate trap assembly. The two small ones are used to secure the drain hose
to the exhauster coupling, and the ½" barbed fi tting on the condensate trap assembly.
NOTE: It is recommended that pliers be used to fi rmly clamp the plastic hose clamps.

PREPARATIONS FOR VENT AND DRAINING OPTION

1. Determine the most suitable vent and drain options for installation. See Figures 22-25 for reference, and
refer to Exhauster Rotation Instructions section if necessary.
2. Remove the 3½" plastic vent cap (if required), and cover vent hole not in use. Install rubber grommet (in
parts bag) for 2" vent pipe. Connect vent pipe (field supplied). If using 1½" or 3" vent, make transition as
close as possible to the unit and on a vertical section.
3. Remove the plastic air inlet cap and connect the 2" PVC air intake connector with the rubber gasket on the
outside of the unit using the 2" lock nut (in parts bag). If using 1½" or 3" air intake pipe, make transition as
close as possible to the unit and on a vertical section.
4. Connect 2" air intake pipe (field supplied). The exhaust vent must be supported appropriately prior to
it being fitted to the exhauster. Under no circumstances shall the exhauster bear any weight of the
venting system.
5. Install appropriate gaskets on condensate trap, and remove the two plastic caps attached to the blower
division, and the one attached to the side panel.
6. Affix the condensate trap assembly to the interior of the side panel in the blower compartment for upflow
positions; (the interior of the side panel in the burner compartment for downflow positions) using the two
screws provided (in parts bag). For horizontal positions affix the condensate trap assembly to the exterior
side panels.
NOTE
• All drain tubing must slop towards condensate trap, ensuring that drain hoses do not create
traps prior to the condensate trap assembly.
• Any increase of venting must be done on the vertical sections NOT horizontal sections.
UPFLOW:
Requires both the top sealing
HORIZONTAL (LEFT AND RIGHT):
Requires only the top sealing condensate gasket
DOWNFLOW:
Requires only the side sealing condensate gasket
