Hydronic Heating Boilers and Domestic Water Heaters

INSTALLATION Continued Vent Kits

The Vertical DirectAire™ vent system requires you to install two vent pipes directly to the unit; one vertical pipe with a rooftop termination for the flue products and one pipe for combustion air. For this venting option, you must purchase the DV box adapter from the appliance manufacturer. The DV box attaches to the air inlet of the unit. The pipe for combustion air attaches to the DV box.

You can terminate the combustion air pipe either horizontally with a sidewall air inlet or vertically with a rooftop air inlet. The installed length of air inlet pipe from the unit to the outside air inlet cap must not exceed 50 equivalent feet (15.2m).

WARNING: Only use a sidewall air inlet cap supplied by the appliance manufacturer or a rooftop air inlet cap supplied by the vent manufacturer. Using any other air inlet cap for single unit installations or using a common air inlet cap for multiple units with insufficient free area and/or protections from wind and weather may result in operational problems and the spillage of flue products. Spillage of flue products can cause personal injury or death due to carbon monoxide poisoning.

For single unit installations with sidewall air inlet, (see FIG. 18) you must order the sidewall air inlet kit from the appliance manufacturer. The part number for each SVK kit is listed by unit size in TABLE–D.

For single unit installations with rooftop air inlet (see FIG. 20), you must order the rooftop air inlet kit from the appliance manufacturer. The part number for each VDK kit is listed by unit size in TABLE-D. Purchase the flue pipe, rooftop flue termination, and air inlet pipe locally.

There is no vent kit for combined air supply systems for multiple units. Make sure the air inlet cap is properly sized. You must purchase this cap locally.

Venting of Flue Products

For venting flue products vertically to the outdoors, follow all requirements in the installation instructions for conventional venting in this manual.

Follow all clearance requirements in Vertical Vent Termination Clearances and Location, page 11.

A barometric damper is not required in the flue on Vertical DirectAire™ installations if the draft is within the negative

0.02to 0.08 inches w.c. required for proper operation. If the draft exceeds this range, install a barometric damper.
