3. Install Exhaust Pipe

3. Install Exhaust Pipe

Slide the exhaust pipe through the CVA. Provide enough exhaust piping to pass through the wall (or floor) and provide the minimum clearance of 12 inches between the exhaust pipe termination and the combustion air intake. With all required clearances satisfied, attach the exhaust pipe to the CVA.

4. Install Combustion Air Pipe

Attach a field-supplied combustion air pipe to the concentric side of the CVA.

Be sure to provide enough combustion air piping to pass through the wall and provide the minimum clearance of 2 inches between the combustion air intake and the exterior surface of the outside wall.

Be sure to maintain the minimum clearance of

12 inches between the exhaust pipe termination and the combustion air intake.

5. Install CVA Assembly

Place the CVA assembly through the wall and verify that all minimum clearance requirements as specified in these instructions are met. Secure the CVA assembly to the wall with corrosion resistant sheet metal screws through the mounting brackets.

6. Attach CVA Assembly to Unit

Attach the exhaust pipe to the unit’s combustion exhaust. Using an additional combustion air pipe, connect the unit’s combustion air supply intake to the combustion air connection on the CVA.

7.Install Combustion Air Inlet Guard and Exhaust Vent Terminal

Slide the combustion air inlet guard over the exhaust pipe and fasten it to the combustion air pipe. Attach the exhaust vent terminal to the discharge end of the exhaust piping on the outside of the building.

8. Seal Opening

Seal the opening between the wall and the air intake pipe using an appropriate method.

Concentric Venting – Vertical

Refer to the diagram below for venting on vertical concentric systems. Maintain at least 12 inches between the top of the combustion air inlet terminals and the bottom of the exhaust terminal. (Dim. B).

The bottom of the combustion air intake pipe must terminate above the snow line or at least 12 inches above the roof, whichever is greater.

A tee with cleanout must be provided on the combustion air and exhaust pipe to prevent debris from entering the heat exchanger.

1. Determine Venting Location

Determine the location of the concentric venting adapter (CVA) based on any clearances that must be maintained (follow all codes referenced in these instructions).
