CUTTING THE OPENING THROUGH
THE OUTSIDE WALL
After thoroughly reading the “Locating the New Water Heater” section of this manual and you have chosen a suitable water heater installation site, use the chart below to determine dimensions for the opening in the wall.
Cut a 61/4” diameter hole completely through the outside wall.
WATER HEATER ATTITUDE
There is a certain amount of variance with regard to the direction the water heater faces.
Standing in front of the water heater (gas control facing you), set the 3” diameter elbow (slotted end) on the flue. This will give you a better understanding of the relation of the vent assembly to the opening in the wall and more importantly any possibly of interference of venting and water piping.
The direction of the water heater can now be made. Also consider the gas control valve to insure installation, lighting, and maintenance accessibility are retained.
STANDARD VENT KIT
INSTALLATION #1
*Each part is stamped with a part number.
FIGURE 14
The opening through the wall should be cut at this time. If it hasn’t been, refer back to that section.
1.Lock the elbow to the straight 3” flue pipe. Set this assembly in place on the end of the water heater’s flue collar.
FIGURE 15
2.Mark the flue collar at the slots in the elbow. Using a #22 drill bit, drill holes into the flue collar at the two slots and secure the elbow to the flue collar using the screws provided.
NOTE: Make sure elbow is properly aligned to opening in the outside wall.
