To attach the adapter, hold it in place and select the location for drilling a 1/8" diameter
hole (No. 30 drill) through the connecting overlap of the heater flue and the adapter
collar.
For an oblong horizontal flue, drill the first hole on either side of the top.
For a round horizontal flue, drill the first hole in the top portion of the circle.
For an oblong vertical flue, drill the first hole on either "end" of the side toward
the front of the heater.
For a round vertical flue, drill the first hole on the portion of the circle toward the
front of the heater.
Insert a #10 sheetmetal screw. Drill two more holes -- for an
oblong flue, drill a hole in
the opposite edge of the same side as the first hole, and one in the middle of the oppo-
site side; and for a
round flue, space the three holes approximately equal distances
apart. Attach with sheetmetal screws.
3. Install the Venter Sub-Assembly -- The venter sub-assembly is assembled and
wired at the factory. It includes the blower, motor, capacitor, pressure switch, thermal
switch, and junction box. Select and follow the appropriate instructions.
Heater with a Horizontal Flue (FIGURE 4) -- Position the venter sub-assembly on the
flue adapter. The venter discharge outlet (vent connection) must be pointing in a direc-
tion from horizontal to vertical.
Do not position the venter with the discharge outlet
(vent connection) in a direction below horizontal.
