CGTH INSTALLATION, OPERATION AND SERVICE MANUAL

5.3Galvanized Horizontal Venting

WARNING

Carbon Monoxide Hazard

Heater must be exhausted outside. Use materials supplied.

This heater needs fresh air for safe operation and must be installed so there are provisions for adequate combustion and ventilation air.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in death or injury.

After the heater has been properly suspended in accordance with the preceding headings of this sec- tion, proceed to install the venting as described below (See Page 23, Figure 16):

1.Using a tape measure, measure the distance from the floor to the center of the vent collar on the rear surface of the burner. Note this dimension here

__________.

2.Using the tape measure, transfer this measure- ment to the inside surface of the exterior wall that the vent will penetrate; make a reference mark. Check the location of the hole to ensure that there are no internal wall structures (i.e. studs) to pre- vent penetration. Also check that the outlet of the vent does not compromise the general venting requirements, See Section 5.1.

3.Using the tape measure, measure the distance between the rear surface of the heater and the exterior wall. Note this dimension here _________.

NOTE: If the distance between the rear surface of heater and the exterior wall is greater than 5' (1.5 m), a 5’ (1.5 m) balanced flue vent exten- sion kit (P/N 08039000) will be required.

4.From the reference mark made in step 2, measure down vertically 1/4" (6 mm) per foot measured in step 3. Cut 5” (125 mm) vent terminal clearance hole at the lower reference.

5.Install 3" (80 mm) flue pipe from the vent collar, on the rear surface of the burner, and through the exterior wall. Be sure to seal any joints in the 3" (80 mm) flue pipe with high temperature silicone seal- ant and secure them with three sheetmetal screws.

IMPORTANT: The 3" (80 mm) flue pipe must extend a minimum of 6" (150 mm) beyond the exterior surface of wall/fresh air intake.

6.Assemble or cut the 5" (125 mm) air supply pipe to run between the vent collar on the rear surface of the burner and the outside surface of the exterior wall. Be sure to seal any joints in the 5" (125 mm) air supply pipe with high temperature silicone seal- ant and secure them with three sheetmetal screws.

7.From the exterior of the building, slip the assem- bled or cut 5" (125 mm) air supply pipe over the installed 3" (80 mm) flue pipe. Connect the 5" (125

mm)pipe to the vent collar on the rear surface of the burner with high temperature silicone sealant and secure the connection with three sheetmetal screws.

8.From the exterior of the building, slip the vent ter- minal onto the 3" (80 mm) flue pipe and guide the sleeve portion of the vent terminal over the 5" (125

mm)air supply pipe that is flush with exterior sur- face of wall. Secure air vent pipe to the vent termi- nal collar with silicone sealant.

9.Secure the vent terminal to the exterior surface of the wall.

NOTE: If the protruding 3" (80 mm) flue pipe is directly below and within 24" (609 mm) of the building soffit, the optional vent extension should be used.
