Hatco offers an auxiliary hood that can be placed directly over the PMG-60 that will direct flue gas products to the rear of the Booster Water Heater. The flue gas may be directed to exhaust behind the counter or dishwasher or up into a nearby ventilation/exhaust hood. (See manual for details.)

The Booster Water Heater will operate at less than its sea level capacity due to either natural derating or code compliance derating. This means that the unit’s sizing selection should be checked for the intended altitude. Also, an orifice change may be required to achieve the maximum allowable burn rate. Charts are provided in the manuals to help achieve compliance with AGA's limits for our models. NFPA 54 and local codes should be checked to be sure they don't take precedence. A kit of blank orifices is available to allow you the flexibility to comply with the specific altitude regulation at your installation.

The choice is yours. Sometimes the cost of energy will make gas Booster Water Heaters a better choice than electric Booster Water Heaters. Ask your Hatco Representative for an energy cost comparison.

As long as your facility is heated for inhabitancy, the PMG-60 would be unaffected whether ON or OFF. The PMG-100 and PMG-200 have exhaust fans that keep warm air moving out the vent when they are ON. Because of this, it is recommended that the heater be left ON at all times when the outside temperature is below 32°F (0°C) to counteract the unlikely occurrence of cold air migrating into the vent pipe.

Exhaust temperature is approximately 200°F (93°C) at the outlet of the Booster Water Heater. It quickly cools to ambient temperature as it travels through the vent pipe and exits outside or into the room or under a condensate hood.
