FIGURE 16.

This unit can vent through 2", 3" or 4" nonmetallic pipe and fittings.

The vent pipe installation can be started from either the blower discharge or the termination wall. Keep in mind the total vent system (pipe and elbows) when installing the vent system, see VENTING AND INSTALLATION, pages 15 - 17.

The vent terminal should be kept as close as possible to the outside wall, but you need to allow at least 1.5" (3.8 cm) of pipe past the wall, for the wall flange and vent terminal to mount on the pipe.

Before the vent terminal is installed, caulk (not supplied) around the pipe on the exterior wall and install the optional wall flange. The flange can be held to the outside wall by placing some of the caulking on the back of the flange. The wall flange is supplied for decorative purposes only and is not a requirement for the vent termination (if not needed by the installer).
