Vent lengths for the inlet and the outlet pipes should not have a difference of more than five (5) equivalent feet.

GP100-250 can only be vented with four (4) inch PVC pipe and fit- tings. Use only the vent terminals supplied withthe water heater

HORIZONTAL VENT TERMINAL LOCATION - The location of the vent terminal depends on the minimum clearances and consider- ations shown in the charts on pages 11 and 12..

Vent lengths for the inlet and the outlet pipes should not have a differ- ence of more than five (5) equivalent feet.

NOTICE: 3” and 4” vent pipe should not be mixed, other than to reduce the 4” vent for the 3” PVC Vent Terminal. This unit is supplied with two (2) 3-inch Schedule 40 PVC 45º vent terminals.

The 4” vent pipe can use up to 16 inches of 3” PVC, preceding the vent terminal. This unit uses the same vent terminals (sup- plied with the unit) for both 3” and 4” pipe. A 4” to 3” reducer will be required to go from 4” to 3” pipe.
