SELECTING LOCATION
To determine the safest and most efcient location
for your appliance, you must take into consider-
ation the following guidelines:
1. The location must allow for proper clearances
(see Clearances, page 7).
2. Consider a location where heat output would
not be affected by drafts, air conditioning
ducts, windows or doors.
3. A location that avoids the cutting of joists
or roof rafters will make installation easier.
Figure 1 shows a plan view of a few common
locations.
Flush installations are recommended where
living space is limited or at a premium and since
the space required to enclose the appliance would
be located beyond an outside wall, this would also
reduce the cutting of joists, roof rafters and such.
Check local codes for any restrictions.
Projectedinstallations can extend any distance
into the room. A projection may be ideal for a new
addition on an existing, nished wall.
Corner installations make use of space that
may not normally be used and provides a wider
and more efcient range for radiant heat transfer-
ence.
Internal wall installations provide a discreet
option for room separation and can also be ideal
as an addition to an existing wall.

VENTING INSTALLATION
A B-type venting system must be connected to the
appliance for venting to the outside of the building.
The following section is provided as a guide to a
standard B-type vent installation.
Standing codes requirements concerning B-type
vent installations may vary within your state,
province or local codes jurisdiction. Therefore,
it is recommended that you check with your
local building codes for specic requirements
or in absence of local codes, follow Section 7.0
of the current National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 and in Canada with CAN/CGA
B149 for Category I systems using double wall
B-1 vent pipe.
This gas appliance must be vented to the outdoors
only and may not be terminated into an attic space
or into a chimney ue servicing a solid-fuel burn-
ing appliance.
This appliance may be vented through a manufac-
tured chimney system or a masonry chimney using
a B-vent adapter or a chimney liner system if all
are listed, inspected and approved by local codes
and/or building authorities.
The examples shown in Figure 10, page 10 are
typical of most B-vent installations and codes
practices.
Example 1: Shows the minimum allowable sys-
tem height and lateral offset for a 60° degree or
greater inclination. Code species that offsets at
60° degrees or greater are considered horizontal
and must follow the 75% percent rule for lateral
to total vertical system height. Codes also allows
only one offset in the total system when at 60°
degrees or greater. The total vertical height in this
example represents the minimum height of 8 feet
and therefore the allowable lateral is 6 feet when
the 75% percent rule applies. If the lateral length
must exceed 75% then the system must be sized in
accordance with the Category I venting tables.
Example 2: Shows a multiple offset each at 45°
degrees of inclination. Multiple offsets are permit-
ted if they do not exceed 45° degrees of inclination.
The total lengths of the two offsets are not required
to meet the 75% percent allowable rule.
Example 3: Shows a single offset at 45° degrees
of inclination and therefore the lateral length at
10 feet of offset does not have to meet the 75%
percent rule.
In each case the offsets must be supported and
restops must be positioned wherever the vent
must pass through a sub-oor, ceiling joist or
an attic overhang. The vent pipe must terminate
vertically into a listed type vent cap and extend a
sufcient height through an approved roof ash-
ing, roof jack or a roof thimble. At all points the
listed clearances must be maintained.
Vent terminations must be located in accordance
with height and proximity rules of NFPA No. 54 or
CAN/CGA B149. These rules apply to vents at 12
in. diameter or less and require a minimum height
in accordance with the roof pitch and a minimum
of 8 ft. distance from a vertical wall or obstruction
(see Figure 11, page 10).
If venting horizontally through a side wall be-
comes necessary, a listed thimble approved for use
with B-type vent must be used. Check with your
local codes before venting through a side wall.
Some codes areas allow the use of existing B-type
vent systems if the system is at or above the recom-
mended diameter of the ue; in this case 6".
