*Pipe length (ft) specified for maximum pipe lengths located in unconditioned spaces. Pipes located in unconditioned space cannot exceed total allowable pipe length as specified in Table 7.

† Insulation thickness based on R value of 3.5 per in.

5.Check required dimensions as shown in Fig. 36, 39, or 40.

C.Concentric Vent/Air Termination Kit

1.Determine location for termination.

Consideration of the following should be made when determining an appropriate location for termination kit.

a.Comply with all clearance requirements as stated in Table 5.

b.Termination kit should be positioned where vent vapors will not damage plants/shrubs or air conditioning equip- ment.

c.Termination kit should be positioned so it will not be affected by wind eddy (such as inside building corners) or that may allow recirculation of flue gases, airborne leaves, or light snow.

d.Termination kit should be positioned where it will not be damaged by or subjected to foreign objects, such as stones, balls, etc.

e.Termination kit should be positioned where vent vapors are not objectionable.

2.Cut one 4-in. diameter hole for 2-in. kit, or one 5-in. diameter hole for 3-in. kit.

—31—

3.Loosely assemble concentric vent/air termination compo- nents together using instructions in kit.

4.Slide assembled kit with rain shield REMOVED through hole.

NOTE: Do not allow insulation or other materials to accumulate inside of pipe assembly when installing it through hole.

Roof terminations—Locate assembly through roof to ap- propriate height as shown in Fig. 37.

Sidewall terminations—Locate assembly through sidewall with rain shield positioned no more than 1-in. from wall as shown in Fig. 38.

5.Disassemble loose pipe fittings. Clean and cement using same procedures as used for system piping.

6.Check required dimensions as shown in Fig. 37 or 38.

IV. MULTIVENTING AND VENT TERMINATIONS

When 2 or more 340MAV Furnaces are vented near each other, each furnace must be individually vented. NEVER common vent or breach vent 340MAV furnaces. When 2 or more 340MAV furnaces are vented near each other, 2 vent terminations may be installed as shown in Fig. 41, 42, 43, 44, and 45, but next vent termination must be at least 36 in. away from first 2 terminations.

340MAV specifications

The Bryant 340MAV is a standout model in the Bryant lineup, designed to provide exceptional comfort, efficiency, and performance for residential heating and cooling needs. This unit offers a perfect blend of innovative technology and user-friendly features, making it an ideal choice for homeowners seeking reliability and quality.

One of the defining characteristics of the Bryant 340MAV is its impressive efficiency rating. With a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) of up to 18, this model ensures that homeowners can enjoy effective cooling during the summer months while minimizing energy consumption. Similarly, the heating efficiency is notable, with a high AFUE (Annual Fuel Utilization Efficiency) rating. This makes the 340MAV an environmentally friendly option that also promotes cost savings on energy bills.

The 340MAV incorporates advanced technologies that enhance its performance. One such technology is the variable-speed compressor, which allows the system to adjust its output based on the demands of the home. This means that the unit operates more quietly and reduces energy usage by matching the cooling or heating output required. Additionally, the two-stage heating capability provides more consistent temperatures and improved comfort throughout the space.

Operating noise is a crucial factor in residential HVAC systems, and the Bryant 340MAV is designed with this in mind. Engineered for quiet operation, the unit features a sound-dampening design, including an insulated cabinet and a specially designed compressor that minimizes noise levels. Homeowners can enjoy a comfortable indoor climate without the disruptive racket often associated with traditional systems.

Furthermore, the Bryant 340MAV is equipped with a durable all-aluminum coil, which improves heat transfer efficiency while also being resistant to corrosion. This characteristic contributes to the longevity of the unit, ensuring that it can withstand various environmental factors without compromising performance.

Another key feature is the advanced control options that the Bryant 340MAV offers. Integration with smart thermostats allows homeowners to monitor and adjust their HVAC system remotely, ensuring optimal comfort at all times. Additionally, the system is compatible with Bryant's Perfect Airâ„¢ filtration system, enhancing indoor air quality by reducing pollutants and allergens.

In summary, the Bryant 340MAV is a high-efficiency heating and cooling solution that brings together cutting-edge technology, quiet operation, and user-friendly features. With its focus on comfort and energy savings, it stands out as a prime choice for homeowners looking to invest in a reliable HVAC system.
