1.Type B-1 oval pipe

2.Single story type B-1 gas vents require a baseplate and one pair of ceiling plate spacers.

3.Multi-story type B-1 gas vents require a baseplate, one pair of ceiling

plate spacers at the Þrst ßoor ceiling and one pair of Þre stop spacers at each successive ceiling level.

Type B-W gas vent pipe is available for single story or multi- story installations. Type B-W gas vent pipe is to be used with the Listed base plate, ceiling plate spacers and Þre stop spacers.

Insulated Vent Enclosure

Gravity vented wall furnaces installed in buildings with ßat roofs can have poor venting. The cold vent pipe will have a delay in proper venting and cause the wall furnace to shut "off" by the vent safety switch. To prevent delayed venting as well as condensation of ßue products an insulated vent enclosure is recommended.

Use Type B vent pipe and maintain at least a one inch (25mm) clearance to combustibles.

Use metal thimble to protect vent pipe as it passes through combustibles.

Baseplate Gasket is factory installed on header. Baseplate attaches to header with screws. B-vent snaps into and is attached to baseplate. Minimum height of vent pipe must be six feet (1.8m) above header.

Stud space around gas vents must be free of obstructions and building paper.

Uninsulated Single-Wall Metal Pipe shall not be used outdoors in cold climates for venting gas utilization equipment.

Attention: The main burner uses room air for combustion. As the gas/air mixture is injected into the main burner, there is also the ßow of dust and lint particles into the main burner.

Dust and lint accumulation inside the main burner will result in a yellow main burner ßame and possible sooting inside the combustion chamber and vent pipe. To clean main burner refer to Page 13, "Proper Main Burner Flame."
