VENT PIPE TERMINATION

NOTE: Before installing venting, determine place of vent pipe termination. See Figure 5 and 6 before proceeding.

CAUTION

DO NOT TERMINATE THE VENTING WHERE NOISE FROM THE EXHAUST OR INTAKE WILL BE OBJECTIONABLE. THIS INCLUDES LOCATIONSCLOSETOORACROSSFROMWINDOWSAND DOORS. AVOID ANCHORING THE VENT AND INTAKE PIPES DIRECTLY TO FRAMEDWALLS,FLOORSORCEILINGSUNLESSRUBBERISOLATION PIPEHANGERSAREUSED.THISPREVENTSANYVIBRATIONSFROM BEING TRANSMITTED INTO THE LIVING SPACES.

IMPORTANT

The vent system must terminate so that proper clearances are maintained as cited in local codes or the current editions of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the Natural Gas and Propane Installation Code, CAN/CSA-B149.1.

Do not terminate the exhaust vent terminal over public area where condensate or vapor can cause nuisance or hazard.

Plan the vent system layout so that proper clearances are maintained from plumbing and wiring.

Vent pipes serving power vented appliances are classified by building codes as "vent connectors". Required clearances from combustible materials must be provided in accordance with information in this manual under LOCATION OF HEATER and CLEARANCES, and with National Fuel Gas Code and local Codes.

WARNING

WHEN THE UNIT IS TO BE SETUP AS A DIRECT VENT, THE INTAKE GUARD AND THE BALANCE PLATE MUST BE REMOVED. THE INLET VENT PIPE MAY THEN BE GLUED TO THE AIR INTAKE (see Figure 8) PROVIDED ON THE UNIT.

FIGURE 8.

IMPORTANT

Plan the layout of the vent system backwards from the vent termination to the appliance.

WARNING

USE ONLY THE VENT TERMINALS SUPPLIED WITH THIS UNIT. TERMINATION OF A VENT SYSTEM WITH A DEVICE OTHER THAN THE SUPPLIED VENT TERMINATIONS WILL AFFECT SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND RESULT IN A SAFETY HAZARD.

DIRECT VENTING

The air intake provided on the unit contains an intake guard, see

DIRECT VENT TERMINAL INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT

4" VENT AND INTAKE TERMINALS ARE PROVIDED FOR NEW INSTALLATIONS . TO PREVENT EXHAUSTING PRODUCTS FROM CIRCULATING TO THE AIR INTAKE IN WINDY/COLD AREAS, THE MAXIMUM PRACTICAL DISTANCE BETWEEN THESE TWO TERMINALS IS RECOMMENDED.

IMPORTANT

WHEN LOCATING THE TERMINALS ON A SIDEWALL, THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICATIONS PERTAINING TO TERMINAL LOCATION MUST BE FOLLOWED.

1.The intake vent terminal and the exhaust vent terminal must terminate on the same exterior wall and must be located at a minimum of 24" (61cm) from the vertical centerline of the exhaust vent terminal (see Figure 9). In colder climates increasing the 24" (61cm) minimum to 48" (122cm) will reduce possibility of frost over from side winds blowing exhaust vapors to the air intake of the direct the vent and is recommended for Canada.
