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.
1. Assemble top and side panels of downturn nozzle assembly (see Figure 1):
a. Secure right and left panels to top panel using screws from kit. Ensure
that panel with slotted holes in bottom of panel is installed on door side of
unit. Nozzle bottom will be added in step 7. b. If installing option CD3 or
CD5, assemble second nozzle section–sections will be joined in step 6.

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.

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.

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.
