SideShot ® is a registered trademark of Tjernlund Products, Inc. for their Model SS1-R Vent System.
DESCRIPTION
The SS1-R is a mechanical vent system designed and listed for use with specified Rheem, Ruud, Weatherking and Heat Controller oil
fired furnaces. The SS1-R automatically vents the flue gases away from the oil furnace to the outdoors. By combining outside air
with high-tech insulation and maintaining required clearances, surrounding combustible materials remain at safe temperatures. A
factory post-purge time is set at 2 minutes and is adjustable up to 16 minutes, see “Pre / Post-purge Settings” on page 4. The
SS1-R features a safety system consisting of the integral UC1 Universal Control, a Fan Proving Switch and a High Limit tempera-
ture control. These devices monitor the SS1-R’s performance and will interrupt the main burner if a venting malfunction is detected.
