PLANNING YOUR VENTING INSTALLATION
See the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations" section for the requirements. .
When planning your installation, it will be nec- essary to select the proper length of vent pipe for your particular requirements. Determine the minimum clearance to combustibles from the rear of the unit to the wall. It is also important to note the wall thickness. Before cutting the vent hole through the wall ensure that ALL vent and termination clearances (see the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations" section) will be met.
*If this is an outside corner, the minimum distance between the vent and the outside corner is 12" (30cm). See "F" on the diagram in the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations" section.
For corner installation, Restrictor must | For straight rear installation, Restrictor |
