The Premier Power-Vent is a 50-gallon, 76,000 BTU residential gas water heater, equipped with a fully submerged, spiral-shaped condensing heat exchanger.
This design provides much greater heat transfer surface than a standard straight flue tube, resulting in 90% thermal efficiency and higher hot water output than standard 78% efficient water heaters.
With a 22" diameter, Premier Power-Vent can be installed in less space than a 75-gallon unit and delivers greater recovery and lower operating costs. The Premier Power-Vent is so advanced, it can deliver "endless hot water for showers" ...a continuous flow or over 3 gallons per minute.*
* 3.07 GPM continous flow, based on 65°F inlet water temperature, 110°F outlet temperature.
Features
- Power Direct-Vent Design for Installation Versatility
- Modular blower, with 120V, 60Hz electrical system (5 amps or less), 6' cord with standard 3-prong connector
