INSTALLATION
For a gas-fired unit heater, refer to the Install Downturn Nozzle on Gas-Fired Unit Heater section. For a hydronic unit heater, refer to the Install Downturn Nozzle on Hydronic Unit Heater section. Install Downturn Nozzle on Gas-Fired Unit Heater
DANGER
Before installing a downturn nozzle on a gas-fired unit heater, ensure that the unit is installed using four-point suspension in accordance with the installation manual provided with the unit.

VERTICAL LOUVER FRAME

Figure 2. Typical Gas-Fired Unit Heater Face Plate Assembly (with Vertical Louver Frame Shown)
NOTE: The vertical louver frame is installed only on units ordered with either option CD4 or CD5– vertical louvers (option CD1) with either a CD2 nozzle or a CD3 nozzle.
5. If installing option CD4 or CD5, install vertical louver frame (see Figure 2): a. Position frame in face plate outlet so that holes align. b. Secure frame to face plate using screws from kit.
6. If installing option CD3 or CD5, position second assembled nozzle section in outlet of nozzle already assembled. Secure second nozzle section to first nozzle section using screws from kit to create downturn with two sections (see Figure 1).
7. Install downturn nozzle assembly on face plate assembly: a. Position top and side panels assembled in step 1 on back of face plate assembly so that holes align. b. Secure top panel using screws from kit. Do not install screws in side panels at this point. c. Slide nozzle bottom (see Figure 1) into place so that it rests on small tabs on each side. Align holes and secure nozzle bottom to face plate using screws from kit. d. Align holes and secure side panels to face plate using screws from kit.
8. Install downturn nozzle assembly with face plate assembly: a. Position downturn nozzle assembly with face plate assembly so that holes align and secure nozzle to front of unit using existing screws. b. Position nozzle blockoff (see Figure 1) so that holes align and secure to face plate using screws from kit. c. If installing option CD3 or CD5, secure blockoff panel (see Figure 1) to nozzle blockoff. d. Re-install existing two screws in back of face plate next to slots for access door. e. Place access door tabs in slots, reconnect door strap, close door, and tighten screwlock.
NOTE: Before installing the louvers, note the louver curve and determine how the louvers should be positioned to provide the optimal throw pattern. Depending on where the heater is installed and on the desired airflow direction, the louvers may be installed with their curves all in the same direction (either way) or the right half one way and the left the other.

OPT-CD2,3,4,5 (06-24) 1036421-D

9. Install and adjust louvers: a. If installing option CD4 or CD5, install vertical louvers in louver frame: (1) On notched end of louver, slide louver spring over tab.
NOTE: Depending on the desired throw pattern, the end of the louver with the spring can go either into the frame top or bottom.
(2) With wider louver blade facing in toward heat exchanger, push tab with louver spring into hole in top or bottom louver frame (see Figure 3)–spring compresses. Insert tab on other end of louver into opposite louver frame. For left airflow, compress spring into top louver frame. For right airflow, compress spring into bottom louver frame.
COMPRESSION SPRING

Figure 3. Vertical Louver Installation (3) Install all remaining louvers in accordance with steps 9a(1) and 9a(2). b. Install horizontal louvers removed in step 3.
WARNING
To avoid burns, adjust louvers while the heater is not in operation. If louvers must be adjusted while the heater is operating, wear protective gloves.
c. Adjust all louvers to produce desired throw pattern. 10. Turn ON gas and electric power and check for proper operation. Install Downturn Nozzle on Hydronic Unit Heater 1. If heater is installed, turn OFF hot water and electric power. Allow time for louvers to cool before proceeding. 2. Remove each horizontal louver by pushing louver toward spring to release louver. 3. Assemble downturn nozzle assembly (see Figure 4):
a. Assemble top and side nozzle panels, align holes, and secure panels together using screws from kit. b. Position face plate into nozzle assembly so that holes on side of face plate align with holes on side nozzle panels. c. Secure face plate to nozzle assembly using screws from kit. d. Slide nozzle bottom into place so that it rests on small tabs on each side. Align holes and secure nozzle bottom
to face plate using screws from kit.

NOTE: The vertical louver frame is installed only on units ordered with either option CD4 or CD5– vertical louvers (option CD1) with either a CD2 nozzle or a CD3 nozzle.
4. If installing option CD4 or CD5, install vertical louver frame: a. Position frame against recessed black face plate on nozzle (see Figure 4). b. Align holes on inside of frame top, bottom, and sides and secure frame to unit using screws from kit.
5. If installing option CD3 or CD5: a. Ensure that first assembled nozzle section that will be attached to unit is assembled with unpainted face plate–second assembled nozzle section will have painted face plate. b. Position second assembled nozzle section in outlet of nozzle already assembled. Secure second nozzle section to first nozzle section using screws from kit to create downturn with two sections.
6. Install downturn nozzle assembly: a. Position assembly against recessed black face plate on unit. b. Align holes on inside of assembly and secure assembly to unit using screws from kit.
NOTE: Before installing the louvers, note the louver curve and determine how the louvers should be positioned to provide the optimal throw pattern.

NOTE: Depending on the desired throw pattern, the end of the louver with the spring can go either into the frame top or bottom.
(2) With wider louver blade facing in toward heat exchanger, push tab with louver spring into hole in top or bottom louver frame (see Figure 3)–spring compresses. Insert tab on other end of louver into opposite louver frame. For left airflow, compress spring into top louver frame. For right airflow, compress spring into bottom louver frame.
(3) Install all remaining louvers in accordance with steps 7a(1) and 7a(2). b. Install horizontal louvers removed in step 2.
WARNING
To avoid burns, adjust louvers while the heater is not in operation. If louvers must be adjusted while the heater is operating, wear protective gloves.
c. Adjust all louvers to produce desired throw pattern. 8. Position H2O logo in three holes in right side of face plate and snap into place.
DANGER
Horizontal discharge units with a downturn nozzle require three-point suspension–from the heater’s two 3/8-16 suspension points and from the nozzle bracket provided in the kit that is to be installed on top of the downturn nozzle assembly.
NOTE: If the downturn nozzle is being installed on a unit with downward discharge, the nozzle bracket is not required.
9. For units with downward discharge, proceed to step 10. For units with horizontal discharge, install nozzle bracket as follows: a. Position nozzle bracket on first nozzle as shown in Figure 4 and secure bracket using screws from kit. b. Secure suspension hardware to nozzle bracket.
10. Turn ON hot water and electric power and check for proper operation.
