Service Parts List
Replacement parts can be obtained from your dealer. Re-
pair of the Power Vent should only be done by a qualied
service technician.
NOTICE: The fan motors present in this power vent will
generate sound during operation. The effects of the in-
creased sound level can be minimized with careful plan-
ning during installation of the system.
IMPORTANT OPERATIONAL NOTE: When the wall switch
is being used to run the appliance is activated, a 2 minute
delay will occur before power is provided to the appliance.
This is to allow a pre-purge by the PVLP-SLP-AU. If, after
135 seconds, the pilot and burner do not light, refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this instruction for further direction.
There will also be a 20-minute post-purge in which the PVLP-
SLP-AU will continue to run after appliance is turned off.
NOTE: The battery back-up of any IPI system are re-
moved when the PVLP-SLP-AU power vent is installed.
The appliance may no longer be operated with battery
back-up.
The PVLP-SLP-AU operates on 240VAC, 50Hz electrical
service see Section 4.A for wiring diagram.
NOTE: PVLP-SLP-AU requires special control system
congurations:
• The battery-backup feature cannot be used with
models congured with the PVLP-SLP-AU.
• The wired wall switch feature is required to be used
with models congured with the PVLP-SLP-AU.
B. Installation of PVLP-SLP-AU
1. INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS
a. This device must be installed by a qualied installer
in accordance with these instructions.
b. Safety inspection of the venting system should
be performed before and after installation of this
power vent. Consult local code ofcials and follow
applicable installation codes.
c. DO NOT INSTALL DAMAGED EQUIPMENT OR
VENT COMPONENTS.
d. Disconnect electrical power supply before making
wiring connections.
e. Venting of more than one appliance in a common
vent system is prohibited.
f. Clearances between the vent pipe and combustible
materials must be maintained at 1-1/2 in. (38 mm)
top, 1 in. (25 mm) sides and bottom.
g. All outer pipe joints must be sealed with silicone
(with a minimum of 300 ºF (149 ºC) continuous
exposure rating). See Section 2.A.
CAUTION! Failure to install, operate, and maintain the
power venting system in accordance with manufacturer's
instructions will result in conditions which may produce
bodily injury and/or property damage.
2. INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
a. The exit termination of mechanical draft systems shall
not be less than 7 ft. (2.13 mm) above grade when
located adjacent to public walkways.
b. A mechanical drafting venting system shall terminate at
least three feet above any forced air inlet located within
10 ft. (3.05 m).
c. A PVLP-HS heat shield is available and sold separately
if the PVLP-SLP-AU is installed in an accessible area.
d. If the PVLP-SLP-AU will be installed in a location
where the exhaust housing assembly needs to be
removed for service or maintenance, the pipe must
be installed to allow for a minimum of 18 in. (457
mm) of pipe to be removed at the time of service.
This will allow adequate space to remove the ex-
haust housing assembly.

2 Vent Information and Diagrams
A. Installation of Vent Pipe
For information on standard procedures for venting the
appliance, refer to the "Vent Information and Diagrams"
section of the appliance installation manual.
For the allowable pipe lengths and elbow combinations
for an appliance utilizing the PVLP-SLP-AU, consult the
Power Vent diagrams in the Vent Information and Diagrams
section of the appliance installation manual. The PVLP-
SLP-AU uses SLP pipe (6-5/8 in. (168 mm) connections.
In certain cases, a pipe adapter may be used in the vent
run. The DVP-2SL adapts from 5 in. / 8 in. (127 mm / 203
mm) DVP series starting collars to 4 in. / 6-5/8 in. (102
mm / 168 mm) SLP series vent pipe. A DVP-SLP24 may
also be used to transition from a DVP to SLP pipe when
using this cap.
Either SLP or DVP venting may be used throughout the
vent run except on certain models that require DVP pipe.
See Table 2.1. Refer to Section 2.B for more information
regarding venting regulations.
B. Vent/Pipe Regulations
WARNING! Risk of Fire!
Maintain minimum pipe length requirement between
appliance and PVLP-SLP-AU on all models. Combustible
materials surrounding pipe may overheat.
1. A minimum length of venting is required between the
appliance and the PVLP-SLP-AU. This minimum length
requirement varies for the specic appliance. Refer to
Table 2.1. for requirements for specic models. Once
the minimum length requirement is met, the PVLP-SLP-
AU may be installed at any location within the vent run
conguration.
2. For every 1 ft. (305 mm) of vertical drop the total allow-
able length must be reduced by 2 ft. (610 mm).
Figure 2.1 Silicone Sealant
All outer pipe joints must be sealed with silicone (with a
minimum of 300 ºF (149 ºC) continuous exposure rating),
including the slip section that connects directly to the hori-
zontal termination cap.
• Apply a bead of silicone sealant inside the female outer
pipe joint prior to joining sections. See Figure 2.1.
OR
• Apply the aluminum foil tape (300 ºF (149 ºC) minimum
continuous exposure rating) to the outside of connect-
ing joint after joining sections. On horizontal pipe runs,
it is recommended that the tape seam is positioned on
the bottom side of the vent pipe.
• Only outer pipes need to be sealed. All unit collar, pipe,
slip section, elbow and cap outer ues shall be sealed
in this manner, unless otherwise stated.
NOTE: See Table 2.1 for model specic vent
requirements.

NOTE:
• The PVLP-SLP-AU may be painted to a desired
color, as long as the paint selected has sufcient
temperature and environmental ratings.
• Thoroughly sand the existing coating prior to
painting with sand paper or steel wool.
• The front of the cap cover may be eld-painted
and cured up to 400° F (204 °C). All remaining
parts of the cap may be painted but they may not
be cured beyond 190° F (88 °C) due to gaskets
and components overheating.
• Certain areas of the cap surface may reach up
to 600° F (316 °C). Paints selected should have
sufcient temperature ratings.
• Cap contains silicone sealant which could affect
adherence of paint. Please advise local painter

NOTICE: It is imperative that the PVLP-BEK kit be installed
squarely or the PVLP-SLP-AU may not t into the opening
once nishing has occurred. Also, care should be taken to
ensure that PVLP-BEK is secured at to wall.
17. The wall is now ready to be finished. Finishing
materials such as stone, marble or brick can then
be applied up to the anges of the PVLP-BEK that
protrude perpendicular to the wall. This will ensure
that the cap will t into the opening after nishing has
been completed.
NOTICE Outside anges of the PVLP-BEK must not have
any pressure on them from the nishing materials. This
could cause the opening left after nishing to be too small.
18. After PVLP-BEK has been installed and the nishing of
the wall has taken place, apply a bead of silicone (with
a minimum of 300 ºF (149 ºC) continuous exposure
rating) to the PVLP-BEK around the entire metal ange,
as shown in Figure 3.22 with the dotted line.

the appliance and venting system. It will be used to ensure
that the nishing is done to the appropriate size for the low
prole power vent (PVLP-SLP-AU) to be installed properly.
If installing with nishing material less than 1
in. (25 mm) thick, proceed to step 22.
14. Drive two of the supplied screws through opposite
ends of the two outer anges. This will secure the
PVLP-BEK extension box to the building and allow
for squaring of the PVLP-BEK. See Figure 319.
15. Seal all corners, joints and bend lines with silicone (with
a minimum of 300 ºF (149 ºC) continuous exposure
rating) caulk. Ensure all gaps and holes are lled so
a sealed envelope is formed.
16. If nishing material extends past the cap extension
box (BEK) more than one inch, an additional BEK is
required. Cap extension boxes may be stacked for
thicker wall applications:
• Attach rst box to the wall.
• Assemble second box.
• Bend the two outside anges of the second box
around to the inside of the box.
• Secure the second box to the rst using four #8 x 1/2
(13 mm) sheet metal screws.

20. After the PVLP-SLP-AU has been secured to the
PVLP-BEK, silicone (with a minimum of 300 ºF (149
ºC) continuous exposure rating) should be applied
around outer edge of PVLP-BEK where it meets the
building exterior. Silicone (with a minimum of 300 ºF
(149 ºC) continuous exposure rating) should also be
applied where PVLP-SLP-AU and PVLP-BEK meet,
as shown in Figure 3.21.
19. Apply a bead of silicone (with a minimum of 300 ºF
(149 ºC) continuous exposure rating) around the entire
metal ange of the PVLP-SLP-AU. See Figure 3.22.
Align with PVLP-BEK as shown in Figure 3.20. Ensure
cap is level and square, then secure PVLP-SLP-AU to
PVLP-BEK as shown in Figure 3.21.
