Mounting the Assembly  
THIS MANUAL SHOULD BE MAINTAINED IN LEGI-  
BLE CONDITION AND KEPT ADJACENT TO THE  
UNIT.  
Follow these instructions if the Power Vent  
venting system was purchased as an  
optional assembly kit.  
1. Remove existing pagoda top (outdoor units) or  
drafthood (indoor units). To remove the pagoda top,  
push the four brackets inward and pull up the pagoda  
top. The pagoda may then be discarded.  
General Specifications  
The D-2 Power Vent Assembly is tested and certified  
to the latest edition of the American National Standard  
ANSI Z21.56. standard for pool heaters, Z21.10.3 for  
water heaters and Z21.13 for boilers.  
2. Unscrew the four screws holding the outer top using  
a phillips screw driver. Remove the jacket top.  
The Power Vent Assembly is a fan assisted combus-  
tion system designed for application to Raypak Heater  
Models 181-401. The unit, when installed as directed,  
is capable of operating in applications such as through  
the wall venting and reduced horizontal and vertical  
vent pipe sizes in new and existing installations.  
3. Replace the inner stack adapter. If the heater had a  
drafthood installed previously, remove the inner stack  
adapter and replace it with the Power Vent stack  
adapter. Otherwise, install the Power Vent stack  
adapter.  
4. Unscrew the access panel on the right side of the  
appliance. Set aside the screws with the access panel.  
The D-2 Power Vent assembly includes a blower with  
a 120/240 volt 60 Hz 1.0/1.95A 3200 RPM motor, a  
plenum complete with a draft proving switch and a  
motor relay. When provided for field mounting the  
assembly is equipped with a wire harness.  
5. Remove the knurled screw holding the front door  
and set it aside with the door.  
NOTE: The D-2 Power Vent comes factory-wired for

TABS  
8. Route the conduit harness of the Power Vent thru  
the outer top hole, around the adapter towards the  
back of the unit. Continue routing the harness thru the  
corner slot, which leads to open area behind the  
access panel. Finally, route only the wire harness thru  
the 7/8” grommet hole located on the sway brace.  
Follow instructions on page 7 to wire the Power Vent.  
Note: Newer units have a 7/8” grommet located on the  
rain shield, which would eliminate routing the harness  
around the back corner.

9. Re-mount the jacket top to its original position and  
screw in the four screws holding it down to the appli-  
ance.  
Fig. 1: Reposition the Tabs as Necessary (see step 10)  
to hold the Power Vent in position. Note: While twisting  
you may notice some roughness, this is due to a tight  
seal between the 6” vent and the Power Vent flue box.  
10. If the appliance is a 181, 182, 330 or 331, remove  
the tabs underneath the power vent using a 5/16” nut  
driver and relocate them closer to the center of the

Table C: Reduced Maximum Equivalent Vent Run  
4"  
Venting  
DIAMETER  
The vent pipe must be the same size or one size larg-  
er than what is indicated. The D-2 Power Vent is  
capable of 360-degree discharge rotation and oper-  
ates with a positive vent static pressure and with a  
vent gas temperature less than 400°F. The total  
length of horizontal run shall not exceed an equiv-  
alent of 40 feet including termination cap. For all  
cases, each 90-degree elbow reduces the maximum  
horizontal vent run by 10 feet and each 45-degree  
elbow in the vent run reduces the maximum vent run  
by 5 feet. See the table below for maximum vent  
lengths using 90-degree and 45-degree elbows.  
The D-2 Power Vent uses positive pressure to push  
flue gases through the vent pipe to the outside. The  
vent must be installed to prevent flue gas leakage.  
Care must be taken during assembly to ensure that all  
joints are sealed properly and are airtight.  
LEFT SIDE  
Fig. 4: Draft Assembly  
The vent must be installed to prevent the potential  
accumulation of condensate in the vent pipes. It is rec-  
ommended that:  
The Raypak Power Vent operates with a positive vent  
static pressure and with a vent gas temperature that  
avoids excessive condensate production in the vent  
and as such it is listed as a CATEGORY III appliance.  
a) The vent be installed with a slight downward slope  
of not more than 1/4” per foot of horizontal run to the  
vent terminal.  
Exception: When a Power Vent is connected to a ver-  
tical vent of sufficient height to generate a negative  
draft in the system. Consult sizing guide or factory.  
b) The vent be insulated through the length of horizon-  
tal run.  
For appliances installed in extreme cold climate, it is  
recommended that:  
The D-2 Power Vent assembly is suitable for through  
the wall venting, and for connection to smaller size  
vent pipes and breeching other than the standard  
atmospheric heater.  
a) The vent be installed with a slight upward slope of  
not more than 1/4” per foot of horizontal run to the vent  
terminal. In this case, an approved condensate trap  
must be installed per applicable codes.  
b) The vent be insulated through the length of the hor-  
izontal run.
