PART 2: HOW THE PHOENIX EVOLUTION OPERATES
(CONTINUED)
Condensate is nothing more than water vapor, derived from the combustion products, similar to an
automobile when it is initially started. It is very important that the condensate line is sloped away
from the water heater and down to a suitable inside drain. If the condensate outlet on the Phoenix
Evolution is lower than the drain, you must use a condensate removal pump (kit p/n 554200 available
from Heat Transfer Products, Inc.) A condensate neutralizer, if required by local authorities, can be
made up of lime crystals, marble or phosphate chips and will neutralize the condensate. This can be
done in the field by the installer or you may purchase one from Heat Transfer Products, Inc. (P/N
S7450-028). It is also very important that the condensate line is not exposed to freezing temperatures
or any other type of blockage. Plastic pipe must be the only material used for the condensate line.
Steel, brass, copper or others will be subject to corrosion or deterioration. A second vent may be
necessary to prevent a vacuum lock in the condensate line if a long horizontal run is used. Also, an
increase in the pipe size may be necessary to drain properly. Support of the condensate line may
be necessary to avoid blockage of the condensate flow.
9. Spark ignition
The burner flame is ignited by applying a high voltage to the system spark electrode. This causes a
spark from electrode to ground.
10. Outdoor Sensor
The outdoor sensor will monitor the outdoor temperature and adjust the setpoint to provide greater
efficiency.
PART 3: PREPARE WATER HEATER LOCATION
A. INSTALLATIONS MUST COMPLY WITH:
•
Local, state, provincial, and national codes, laws, regulations and ordinances.
•
National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 – latest edition.
•
National Electrical Code.
•
For Canada only: B149.1 or B149.2 Installation Code, CSA C22.1 Canadian Electrical Code Part 1
and any local codes.
B. BEFORE LOCATING THE PHOENIX EVOLUTION
The Phoenix Evolution is listed as an indoor appliance and must not be exposed to freezing tempera-
tures.
1. Check for nearby connection to:
•
System water piping
•
Venting connections
•
Gas supply piping
•
Electrical power
2. Check area around unit. Remove any combustible materials, gasoline and other flammable liquids.
NOTICE
The Phoenix Evolution gas manifold and controls met safe lighting and other
performance criteria when undergoing tests specified in ANSI Z21.10.3 — latest edition.
