TYPICAL VERTICAL INSTALLATION

We strongly recommend that you DO NOT install B- Vent Gas Appliances in strong negative air locations, such as a basement or a public facility. Living rooms with cathedral ceilings could be susceptible to a negative air situation, but such installations can be overcome through raising the termination, depend- ing on specific installations. This appliance uses room air for normal operation and could have prob- lems establishing a positive draft in a negative air location. In lieu, we recommend a Direct Vent Gas Appliance.
