TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: The new Raypak series RP2100 pool heaters have been designed to eliminate the need for conventional heat sinks (high temperature piping). The initial connection to the heater is made with a 2" PVC union adapter to which PVC may then be connected with appropriate cement. This newly authorized piping arrangement is described in the installation manual provided by Raypak, and has been successfully tested by Raypak to assure its acceptability. Larry J. Ashton, P.E. Vice Pres

INDOOR HEATER The design is also certified for indoor installation when equipped with the approved draft hood. For Canada, indoor installation is restricted to an enclosure that is not occupied and does not directly communicate with occupied area. Refer to the latest edition of CAN/CGA-B149.1 and B149.2 for specific requirements. Locate heater as close as practical to a chimney or gas vent. Heater must always be vented to the outside. See Vent Piping Section for venting details. Minimum allow

VENT PIPING WARNING: Indoor boilers require a drafthood that must be connected to a vent pipe and properly vented to the outside. Failure to follow this procedure can cause fire or fatal carbon monoxide poisoning. Vent piping the same size as the draft hood outlet is recommended, however, when the total vent height is at least ten (10) feet (draft hood relief opening to vent terminal), the vent pipe size may be reduced as speci- fied in Chapter 10 of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z 223.1.
