Location of a Sidewall Air Inlet Cap

Installation, location and clearance requirements for the sidewall air inlet cap in an Intelli-Vent application are the same as the installation, location and clearance requirements for the sidewall air inlet cap in the Horizontal Direct Vent section of the venting instructions.

The sidewall combustion air inlet cap and the rooftop flue gas outlet are located in different pressure zones in an Intelli-Vent system.

Combustion air supplied from outdoors must be free of contaminants (see Combustion and Ventilation Air). To prevent recirculation of flue products in to the combustion air inlet, follow all instructions in this section.

Incorrect installation and/or location of the air inlet cap can allow the discharge of flue products to be drawn into the combustion process on the heater. This can result in incomplete combustion and potentially hazardous levels of carbon monoxide in the flue products. This will cause operational problems with the heater and possible spillage of flue products that can cause personal injury, death or property damage.

HORIZONTAL INTELLI-VENT WITH

VERTICAL COMBUSTION AIR

The Intelli-Vent system requires the installation of an additional pipe to supply combustion air from outdoors directly to the appliance.

In cold climates, the use of type “B” double wall vent pipe or an insulated single wall pipe is recommended to prevent moisture in the cool incoming air from condensing and leaking from the inlet pipe.

Termination point for the flue products must follow the clearance requirements in the Horizontal Sidewall Vent Termination section of the Category IV Venting.

CAUTION￿

Appliances that are shut down or will not operate may experience freezing due to convective airflow in the air inlet pipe connected to the appliance.

The flue and air inlet duct sizes for a Horizontal Intelli-Vent Installation with Rooftop Combustion Air Inlet are listed by unit size. The sidewall vent cap must be purchased from the appliance manufacturer as a vent kit.

Intelli-Vent systems are installed with a Category IV flue and a separate combustion air pipe to the outdoors. The Horizontal Intelli-Vent system terminates the flue at the sidewall and air inlet at the rooftop. The flue outlet and combustion air intake terminate in different pressure zones.
