Raypak 014357 Indoor Drafthood with Adapter, 6" Vent, for 106A Pool Heaters

The 106A comes with an outdoor stackless top as standard; installed indoors, it needs a drafthood connected to a vent pipe that carries the flue gases outside. Raypak's manual says the heater is design-certified for indoor installation when equipped with the approved drafthood.

The 106A is a 105,000 BTU heater with analog control, sold as P-R106A-AN-C for natural gas and P-R106A-AP-C for propane. The 156A takes drafthood 014358 instead.

• The parts library calls it KIT-D10 DRAFTHOOD 106A
• Vent outlet (flue) diameter: 6 in. (152 mm)
• Overall height with the indoor drafthood in Raypak's dimension figure: 55-1/2 in. (1410 mm)
• Minimum clearance from the drafthood to combustible construction: 6 in. (152 mm)
• Raypak does not publish a contents list for this kit; vent pipe and vent cap are not named as part of it

Good to know: Raypak requires the drafthood to be installed without alteration and vented to the outdoors, recommends Type B double-wall vent pipe the same size as the drafthood outlet, and requires at least 5 ft of vertical vent above the outlet. An indoor heater also needs combustion and ventilation air openings; the heater manual gives the minimum sizes. In Canada, Raypak restricts indoor installation to an enclosure that is not occupied and does not open into an occupied area. Venting a gas heater is work for a qualified installer, following the heater manual and local code.
