diagrams were made using the following standards. | ||
• Use separate vent system for this appliance. | ||

other appliances connected to the flue. | ||
| 2. Measurements are made from the appliance outer wrap, | |
B. Use of Elbows | not from the standoffs. | |
3. Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside | ||

Figure 4.1). | ||
ALL vent configuration specifications MUST be followed. | 4. Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of termi- | |

• This product is tested and listed to these specifications. | ||
5. Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise. | ||
• Appliance performance will suffer if specifications are not | ||
followed. |
