Power Vent Hot Water Heater
Hi all. I have a 7 year old Power Vent Hot water heater. It heats
water just fine, but my problem is that the blower keeps running. It never shuts off. I never noticed this before & I'm just not sure if it's a problem. Can anyone answer ? - Should it run all the time? - If not, what controls it? - Have you ever seen this problem before? Thanks in Advance! Ron |

Its been a while since I've done a power vent and I can't exactly remember
the nuts and bolts of it, but no, it shouldn't run continuously. The water heater aquastat should initiate the blower sequence. Once the blower starts it closes a circuit on a pressure switch allowing the burner to start. Once the aquastat is satisfied, the blower either shuts off or goes through a timing cycle and then shuts off wrote in message ups.com... Hi all. I have a 7 year old Power Vent Hot water heater.

Thanks in Advance! Ron It sounds like a relay has failed in the safe mode. Mr. Meehan is wrong as usual. most power vented heaters don't even use a relay. what brand is this and model number? ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ +++++++++++ spam protection measure, Please remove the 33 to send e-mail |
