6.4.4 Polytube
Adapter - Options
CD6, CD8, and CD11
- applies to Model B
only
The polytube adapter option is designed to adapt this blower-type heater for use with
polytube ductwork. The use of polytubes for air distribution is common in greenhouse
applications and some industrial applications. A polytube distribution system delivers
warm air to a specic area, reducing the need for complete area heating. The polytube
adapter is available in three installation designs making it adaptable to many applica-
tions and building structures.
WARNINGS: This adapter is to be used only on blower units. At
no time should the free area in the polytube be less than the listed
minimum. Failure to comply with these warnings could result in
severe personal injury, death and/or property damage.
The polytube adapter option package does not include polytubing. Polytubing can be
obtained from a supply distributor such as MVT-USA Company, 150 Elizabeth Lane,
Unit 1, Genoa City, WI 53128 or from most local greenhouse supply distributors. Some
local code authorities require the polytube material to be a listed material. Consult code
authority having jurisdiction and the polytube supplier to determine the appropriate
polytube material and recommended methods of suspension.
