MODELS 500-1950
The Water Heater shall be RBI FUTERA II Model FW________________ having an input rating of __________MBH and
_________ MBH output. The Water Heater shall operate on __________ NATURAL __________ PROPANE. The
efficiency shall be up to 85%.
The Water Heater shall be designed certified and tested by International Approval Services. The Water Heater shall meet the
requirements of ANSI Standard Z21.10.3 and the Canadian Gas Association Standard CAN1-3.1. SCAQMD certified (sub
10 ppm NOx). The Water Heater will operate on negative stack pressure and Category I according to ANSI Standards
(AGA) and CGA standards. For horizontal thru-wall installations, the Water Heater will operate on positive stack pressure
and Category III vent material. A listed stainless steel vent must be used.
COMBUSTION CHAMBER:
The combustion chamber shall be constructed of stainless steel. An access door shall be provided for ease of service and
inspection of the heat exchanger.
BURNER:
The burner shall be constructed of low alloy steel and nickel-plated. The burner flame shall burn vertically to provide equal
distribution of heat throughout the entire heat exchanger. The burner shall be easily removed for maintenance without the
disruption of any other major component of the Water Heater. A window view port shall be provided for visual inspection of
the flame during firing.
