Figure 3A - Locating Clearance Hole For Vent.

Cut a clearance hole, approximately 178mm (7 in.) in diam- eter, through the exterior wall for the vent assembly. The minimum height should not be less than 1.72m (68 in.) for 40 gal. models and not less than 1.93m (76 in.) for 50 gal. models, as measured from the hole center to bottom of water heater. The maximum height recommended is 2.28m (90 in.) or in compliance with Figure 3M.

*If the exterior wall is less than 356mm (14 in.) thick, the clearance from the vent to combustible materials within the hole can be 0mm (0 in.). If the wall thickness exceeds 356mm (14 in.), maintain a clearance of 25mm (1 in.) to combustible materials within the hole.

Introduce the 152mm (6 in.) pipe through the clearance hole from exterior wall then secure the vent terminal to the exte- rior wall with 4 screw anchors appropriate for the type of wall construction. Caulk the junction of the vent terminal base plate and the exterior wall with exterior type silicone sealant.

1.Pull the 80mm (3-1/8 in.) corrugated pipe towards the water heater and leave some length over the water heater’s center for bending.

2.Pull the 152mm (6 in.) corrugated pipe toward the water heater and leave it 25mm (1 in.) shorter than 80mm (3- 1/8 in.) pipe.

3.Make sure there are two springs evenly spaced at the bend in the pipe.

4.Use metal hangers to keep vent pipe level or with a slope upward from the heater to terminal.
