Installation instructions

3.6Venting

Danger: Do not combination vent this appliance with any other appliance.

Warning: Do not reduce the vent (exhaust and combustion) pipe sizes and do not common vent with any other vented appliance or stove.

Warning: Failure to vent the exhaust gases to the outside with sealed stainless steel vent pipe (AL29-4C) may result in dangerous flue gases filling the space in which it is installed.

Warning: Single wall exhaust pipe MUST be chased through double wall Type-B vent when passing through an unconditioned space.

Warning: The vent system must be installed by a qualified individual in accordance with these instructions. If improperly installed a hazardous condition such as explosion or carbon monoxide poisoning could result. Bosch Water Heating will not be responsible for improperly installed appliances.

3.6.1Vent material and specifications

Establish vent clearances that comply with the vent manufacturer's specifications. In all cases follow local codes.

Note: Listed thimbles or collars are necessary to pass through wall and ceiling partitions. If the vent system passes through combustible areas where the vent clearance requirements cannot be maintained, it is permissible to chase straight sections of sealed 3 inch single wall vent through 4 inch (or greater) Type-B vent. The distance to combustibles using this chase technique is 1 inch (check local codes).

Warning: Type-B vent must never be used as the actual exhaust vent system for the appliance, because it is not gas tight. This will create a serious health hazard and void the warranty.

Vent lengths

The appliance should be located as close to the point of termination as possible. The maximum vent length is 26 feet (8 m) with one 90 degree elbow. Subtract 2½ feet from the total vent length for each additional 90° elbow used (a maximum of three 90° elbows are

permitted in the total vent length), or subtract 11/4 feet for every 45° elbow used. Horizontal sections of vent must pitch upwards from heater ¼" for every foot of horizontal length, to prevent the pooling of condensate, and be supported at 4 foot intervals with overhead hangers. See Table 2.
