90% THERMAL EFFICIENCY CONTINUOUS HOT WATER VERSATILE

POWER VENT DESIGN

• Today’s homes demand more hot water than ever before, and the 90% efﬁcient

power vent gas water heater offers unprecedented levels of performance to meet

the need. The 50-gallon water heater delivers hot water output that rivals a 75-gallon

atmospheric gas water heater. In fact, the fully condensing design is so advanced, it can

deliver “endless hot water for showers”…a continuous ﬂow of over 3 gallons per minute.

* Yet it is easy to install, with height, diameter and installation requirements similar to

standard power-vent units.

HELICAL INTERNAL HEAT EXCHANGER

• Positioned in the center of the tank, surrounded by water to virtually eliminate radiant heat loss from

the chamber

• Achieves 90% thermal efficiency which saves money on operating costs compared to a standard 78%

efficient gas water heater

• Spiral heat exchanger reduces the accumulation of lime scale; maintains higher efficiency performance

over time.

POWER VENTS USING PVC PIPE

• Combined vertical and horizontal vent runs terminating through an outside wall, using Schedule 40

PVC pipe

• Can be vented vertically thru-the-roof or horizontally thru-the-wall

– 2” pipe, vents up to 25 equivalent feet

– 3” pipe, vents up to 65 equivalent feet

– 4” pipe, vents up to 128 equivalent feet

MODULAR BLOWER

• Equipped with 120 volt, 60 Hz electrical system (rating 5 amps or less), 6-foot cord with standard

3-prong connector

• 2” PVC pipe, elbows and condensate drain supplied to connect heat exchanger outlet to blower

• PVC Vent Attenuation Assembly (VAA) supplied

SIDE-MOUNTED HOT AND COLD RECIRCULATING TAPS

• Allows water heater to be installed as part of combination space heating/water heating applications or

any system requiring a recirculating hot water loop, including radiant floor heating

INTELLI-VENT™** GAS CONTROL

• Equipped with nearly indestructible silicon nitride hot surface ignitor — no standing pilot

• Advanced electronics for more precise control of water temperature and easy-to-understand

system diagnostics

COMMERCIAL GRADE GLASS LINING

• Provides superior protection against corrosion

• Protects all interior tank surfaces including inside and outside of helical heat exchanger

TWO HEAVY-DUTY ANODE RODS

• Provides added protection against corrosion

GREEN CHOICE® GAS BURNER

• Patented “Eco-Friendly” design reduces NOx emissions by up to 33% and meets less than

40ng/j requirements for low NOx

CSA CERTIFIED AND ASME RATED T&P RELIEF VALVE

MAXIMUM HYDROSTATIC WORKING PRESSURE: 150 PSI

*3.07 GPM continuous flow, based on 65°F inlet water temperature, 110°F outlet temperature.
