No, directly vents through to outside wall of building.
Power vented water heaters are usually factory installed kits.
not even in the same state
No, each must be vented seperately.
The difference between a mobile gas water heater and a standard gas water heater is that a MH unit will use an outside air intake for combustion. That is the most important difference.
There is no vent pipe on top of a hot water heater. Mobile home or not. You must be thinking of something else. The HW tank is only vented by a Pressure Relief Valve vented to the drain.
yes there are direct vent gas water heater available Absolutely NOT
a direct vent water heater is more fuel efficient (cost's less to operate). aside from that there isn't much difference, aside from not needing a double wall flue through the roof on a standard gas water heater.
ensure the exhaust fumes are properly vented
No. Gas water heaters are not all designed to use direct venting.
willis carrier inc=vented search up his biography and u can find it yourself thats more useful just helping well he invented the water heater well i still answered the blank q's
Called the 'exhaust chimney'. It should usually be a double thickness aluminium or steel tube.
Water heaters in a mobile home are direct vent. This means combustion air is drawn from outside the home and exhaust gases are vented out the B-vent pipe. In a standard home water heater, it's know as a natural vent. This means room air is used for combustion and exhaust is vented out the B-vent pipe.Ans 2 - That's quite correct in the case of GAS water heaters.However, most of the Mobile homes that I've seen (into hundreds) appear to have electric heaters that are exactly the same as those in a regular house.
