B. Clearances to Combustibles
When selecting a location for the appliance it is important
to consider the required clearances to walls (see Figure
3.4).
WARNING! Risk of Fire or Burns! Provide adequate
clearance around air openings and for service access.
Due to high temperatures, the appliance should be
located out of traffic and away from furniture and
draperies.

C. Constructing the Appliance Chase
A chase is a vertical box-like structure built to enclose the
gas appliance and/or its vent system. In cooler climates
the vent should be enclosed inside the chase.
NOTICE: Treatment of ceiling firestops and wall shield
firestops and construction of the chase may vary with the
type of building. These instructions are not substitutes
for the requirements of local building codes. Therefore,
you MUST check local building codes to determine the
requirements to these steps.
Chases should be constructed in the manner of all out-
side walls of the home to prevent cold air drafting prob-
lems. The chase should not break the outside building
envelope in any manner.
Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever floor of the chase
should be insulated. Vapor and air infiltration barriers
should be installed in the chase as per regional codes for
the rest of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold
air infiltration may be an issue, the inside surfaces may be
sheetrocked and taped (or an equivalent method may be
used) to achieve maximum air tightness.
Figure 3.5 Clearances to Combustibles
NOTICE: Install appliance on hard metal or wood surfaces
extending full width and depth. DO NOT install directly
on carpeting, vinyl, tile or any combustible material other
than wood.
WARNING! Risk of Fire! Maintain specified air space
clearances to appliance and vent pipe:
• Insulation and other materials must be secured to prevent
accidental contact.
• The chase must be properly blocked to prevent blown
insulation or other combustibles from entering and
making contact with fireplace or chimney.
• Failure to maintain airspace could cause overheating
and a fire.
To further prevent drafts, the wall shield and ceiling fire-
stops should be caulked with caulk with a minimum of
300ºF continuous exposure rating to seal gaps. Gas
line holes and other openings should be caulked with
caulk with a minimum of 300ºF continuous exposure rating
or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being
installed on a cement surface, a layer of plywood may be
placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the
room.

D. Use of Elbows
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent as-
pects when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the
vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect. See
Figure 4.4.
Two 45º elbows may be used in place of one 90º elbow.
On 45º runs, one foot of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. (216
mm) horizontal run and 8-1/2 in. (216 mm) vertical run. A
length of straight pipe is allowed between two 45º elbows.
See Figure 4.4.

E. Measuring Standards
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent
diagrams were made using the following standards:
• Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length
of pipe. See Section 12.A (Figure 12.1 for DVP, Figure
12.7 for SLP) for information on effective length of pipe
components.
• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (flange of termination cap) (see Figure
4.3).
• Vertical terminations are measured to bottom of
termination cap.
• Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise.
• Horizontal termination cap should have a 1/4 inch
downward slant to allow any moisture in cap to be
released.
F. Use of Flex Vent
The flex vent must be supported with the
spacing between support intervals not ex-
ceeding 4 feet, with no more than ½ inch
sag between supports.
A support is required at each change in
venting direction, and in any location where
it is necessary to maintain the necessary
clearance to combustibles. A simple “up
and out” installation (Figure 4.6) requires
only enough support to maintain the neces-
sary clearance to combustibles. However,
the vent attachment point and the firestop
location are considered to be supports.

Exhaust restrictors will compensate for high draft, and
restore visual flame height. If the vent configuration has
a total vertical of 15-60 feet, an exhaust restrictor may
be needed. The exhaust restrictor can be located in the
appliance manual bag.
Note: Be sure to rein-
stall the exhaust baffle
after exhaust restrictor
