Power Vent
A power vent water heater is used when conventional chimney venting is not an option. Air is drawn from inside the home, while a motorized blower forces the exhaust outside. This water heater features: factory-installed heat trap nipples, sensor to detect flammable vapours, state-of-the-art electronic gas control, and flexible venting options. This unit is ideal as a replacement water heater in a variety of applications due to its 3-position rotatable blower.
