    • Conservationist® Power Vent has a solid state ignition surface that does not flutter or blow out. Provides increased reliability and efficiency over spark ignition systems. Eliminates the pilot and saves energy. Air is precisely drawn through the combustion control port and exhausted through plastic pipe. Controlling the airflow through the heater enhances and regulates the combustion process. In standby mode, the combustion control port restricts air circulation through the heater. BTF-80 uses up to 76,000 BTU/h of gas to deliver 74 GPH at 100 rise. A. O.
