1.1 Introduction
The #KPV is certified for use as a horizontal termination cap only for
use with the Callaway-72 direct vent fireplace.
Control system configurations:
•
The battery-backup feature cannot be used with #KPV
•
The wired wall switch feature cannot be used with #KPV
•
An appliance with #KPV installed cannot be operated with
battery back-up or a wired wall switch
The #KPV operates on 120VAC, 60Hz electrical service which is
supplied at the fireplace junction box. The current draw of this device
is 0.85 amperes.
The following vent pipe manufacturers are approved for use with
the Kozy Power Vent:
American Metal Products (Ameri-Vent), BDM,
ICC, Metal Fab, Olympia Chimney Supply, Inc., Selkirk, and Simpson
DuraVent.
IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL NOTE: When the control being used to run
the fireplace is activated, there will be up to a 120 second delay before
pilot ignition will begin. This is to allow a pre-ignition purge by the
#KPV. If after 135 seconds the pilot and burner do not light, refer to
Section 6.0 on page 21 of this manual. There will be also 120 second
post-operation purge in which #KPV will continue to run after the
appliance is turned off.
NOTE: The fan motors present in this power vent will generate sound
during operation. The effects of the increased sound level can be
minimized with careful planning during installation of the system.
