horizontal runs—at least every 5 ft (1.5m)

vertical runs—use braces

under or near elbows

WARNING: Examine the venting system at least once a year. Check all joints and vent pipe connections for tightness, corrosion or deterioration.

For heaters connected to gas vents or chimneys, vent installations shall be in accordance with the NFGC (U.S.), or B149 (Canada), or applicable provisions of local building codes.

Vertical Venting (Category IV)

CAUTION: This venting system requires the installation of a condensate drain in the vent piping per the vent manufacturer’s instructions. Failure to install a condensate drain in the venting system will void all warranties on this heater.

Installation

The maximum and minimum venting length for this Category IV appliance shall be determined per the NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).

The diameter of vent flue pipe should be sized accord- ing to the NFGC (U.S.) and Appendix B of B149 (Canada). The minimum flue pipe diameter for con- ventional venting using Category IV, stainless steel AL29-4C vent is: 6 in. (152mm) for Model 1005 and 8 in. (203mm) for Models 1505 and 2005.

The connection from the appliance vent to the stack must be as direct as possible and shall be the same di- ameter as the vent outlet. The horizontal breaching of a vent must have an upward slope of not less than 1/4 inch per linear foot from the heater to the vent termi-
