II. Extended Venting - Horizontal and Vertical Terminations
•Only vent components that are certified and listed with this appliance may be used.
•The maximum length is 33 feet (10 m) with a maximum of 3 elbows.
•The venting length (horizontal and vertical) that is draining back toward the appliance is limited to
8.2 feet (2.5 m). A condensate collector must be installed at this point if more venting length is needed. Dispose of condensate per local codes. The condensate trap must contain a minimum of 3 inches (75 mm) of water.
•Slope any horizontal venting 1/4 inch per foot (19 mm / m), towards the outside so that it can drain out of the termination
•Do not combine vent components from different manufacturers.
•The vent system must vent directly to the outside of the building and use outside air for combustion.
•Venting should be as direct as possible with a minimum number of pipe fittings.
•Avoid dips or sags in horizontal vent runs by installing supports per the vent manufacturer’s instructions.
•Support horizontal vent runs every four feet and all vertical vent runs every six feet or in accordance with local codes.
•Vent diameter must not be reduced.
•Do not connect the venting system with an existing vent or chimney.
•Do not common vent with the vent pipe of any other appliance.
•The horizontal termination must not be used as a vertical termination; the vertical termination must not be used as a horizontal termination.
•For vertical venting, an additional 2 inch elbow, part number 308000010, is required and available from Rinnai for connecting the exhaust to the adapter.
•Refer to the instructions of the vent system manufacturer for component assembly instructions.
•If the vent system is to be enclosed, it is suggested that the design of the enclosure shall permit inspection of the vent system. The design of such enclosure shall be deemed acceptable by the installer or the local inspector.
