Abstract

An air intake coupling has at least one noise suppression hole formed therein. A gas-air mixer elbow is fluidly coupled to the air intake coupling. A burner box assembly is fluidly coupled to the gas-air mixer elbow via a gas-air plenum box. A heat-exchange tube has a first end that is fluidly coupled to the burner box assembly. A fan is fluidly coupled to a second end of the heat-exchange tube via a cold-end header box.
