Abstract

See full text

A combustion chamber for a gas-fired hot water heater comprises a top wall which is defined by a bottom wall of an inner tank. A flue extends through the inner tank bottom wall. A circumferential skirt is disposed about the combustion chamber. The combustion chamber is supported elevated from a support surface by a bottom pan assembly of a hot water heater housing. A combustion air inlet means leads to the combustion chamber. A floor shield is supported above the bottom wall and spaced below a gas burner assembly. The circumferential skirt and/or the floor shield are coated on at least one surface thereof with refractory paint to reflect radiant heat inwardly in the combustion chamber whereby to maximize heat transferred to the inner tank and to minimize heat loss through the skirt and floor shield.
