Used with a single 120VAC controlled oil fired furnace, boiler, or water heater. The PVO may be used to common vent multiple appliances with the addition of a control kit.
The indoor mounted PVG and PVO Power Venters provide an economical power venting system for gas and oil appliances. All controls are built into these units. A Vent Hood is required to terminate the vent system. We also manufacture the PVU (Universal) Power Venter for use with Oil or Gas appliances up to 300,000 BTUs. It comes standard with a CK-63 Control Kit.
How the PVG Works
1. Thermostat or aquastat calls for heat and starts the Power Venter.
2. The Pressure Switch senses sufficient air flow and allows burner(s) to start.
3. The Power Venter draws combustion air through the system and forces gases outside through an external Vent Hood.
4. Draft Hood or Barometric Draft Control between the appliance(s) and the Power Venter maintains consistent air flow.
5. After the thermostat is satisfied, the burner shuts down and the Post Purge Control clears the venting system of combustion gases.
Hey, it sounds like an old transformer humming away in the basement but it vents the boiler. These last about 3-5 years, cost way more than they're worth, and make a ton of noise. If your system can be vented another way, I recommend exploring that way.

evidence that the best of online suppliers handles the best
i needed a side vent for an oil burning application and this unit was the complete heart of this project. While others needed extra controls to handle oil, all I needed to add was the through the wall hood. I like to buy local but Supply House is so quick with shipping (usually next day) and their responsiveness to questions and any issues, it feels like they are closer than any comparable suppliers. They are the reason I can survive in this business climate.
