Honeywell gvd-9pl 9 Inch Vent Damper Black Motor

Product Description

The HONEYWELL gvd-9pl is a 9-inch vent damper equipped with a black motor, designed to control combustion air and flue gas flow in residential and light commercial heating systems. The damper installs in the flue vent pipe downstream of the appliance draft hood and opens automatically on a call for heat, then closes when the burner shuts off to retain heat in the heat exchanger and reduce standby losses. The black motor assembly is an integrated component of the damper unit. This part is suited for installation by licensed HVAC technicians or gas heating service professionals.

The gvd-9pl is applied in gas-fired furnace and boiler vent systems that require a 9-inch vent damper. It is used in residential and light commercial settings where the vent pipe diameter is 9 inches. The damper helps reduce off-cycle heat loss by blocking the flue when the appliance is not firing, contributing to improved overall system efficiency. Compatible replacement part reference noted in supplier data: RVGP-KS-9BKF.

Key Features

• 9-inch nominal vent pipe diameter for direct in-line installation
• Integrated black motor assembly drives damper blade open and closed automatically
• Closes on burner shutoff to reduce standby flue heat loss
• Designed as an in-line vent damper for gas appliance flue systems
• Cross-reference: replaces or corresponds to RVGP-KS-9BKF

Compatibility

Designed for use with gas-fired furnaces and boilers vented through 9-inch diameter flue pipe. Supplier data references cross-part RVGP-KS-9BKF as a corresponding part number. Verify vent pipe diameter, appliance draft hood outlet size, and low-voltage control wiring compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed HVAC technician or qualified gas heating professional in accordance with the appliance manufacturer instructions and applicable mechanical codes such as the IFGC. Shut off gas supply and disconnect power to the appliance before removing or installing the vent damper. The damper must be wired into the appliance low-voltage control circuit so it proves open before the burner is allowed to fire. Do not operate the appliance with the damper blade stuck in the closed position.
