Example 8:

 

 

V1

= 1.5 FT

 

 

V2

= 5 FT

 

 

V

T

= V

1

+ V = 1.5 + 1 + 5 = 6.5 FT

 

 

 

2

 

 

H1

= 1 FT

 

 

H2

= 1 FT

 

 

H3

= 10.75 FT

 

HR

= H1

+ H2

+ H3 = 1 + 1 + 10.75 = 12.75 FT

90°

HO

= .03 (four 90° elbows + one 45° elbow - 90°)

 

 

= .03 (360° + 45° - 90°) = 6.75 FT

H2

HT

= HR

+ HO

= 12.75 + 6.75 = 19.5 FT

45°

HT

+ VT

= 19.5 + 6.5 = 26 FT

 

Formula 1:

 

V1

 

 

H

 

< 3 V

 

 

 

T

3 VTT = 3 x 6.5 = 19.5 FT

H1

19.5 = 19.5

 

90°

Formula 2:

FIGURE 3.11e

HT + VT < 40 FT

 

26 < 40

 

Since both formulas are met, this vent configuration is acceptable.

4.0 INSTALLATION PREPARATION - MODEL GDS60

4.1 ORIFICE REPLACEMENT

REAR VENT TERMINATION:

In rear exit installations with no vertical vent run, the BTU input must be reduced to 21,000 BTU by changing the orifice.

In order to access the orifice, the log support secured by two screws, must be removed.

Care should be taken not to damage the gas pipe. When removing

FIGURE 4.1a

the orifice, using a 9/16" socket wrench, a 7/8" back-up wrench must

 

be used on the manifold, located below the housing, to ensure that

 

the aluminum tubing does not twist or kink.
