Important! Vent Installation and Termination Requirements
• Maximum horizontal vent distance is 80” to outside of exterior wall.
• Minimum horizontal vent distance is 17” to outside of exterior wall.
• Vent pipes may be trimmed (cut) for short vent installations.
• For vent installation less than 30” the vent restrictor is required. Place
restrictor over the flue outlet on heater before installing the outlet vent
pipe to the heater.
• Recommended installation height for the heater and vent pipe should be
68” for 40-gallon models and 76” for the 50 and 75-gallon models (vent
height).
• Offset Vent Arrangement
1. When replacing an existing direct vent model, the new vent pipe may drop
from the minimum vent height as much as 7 1/4” to exit through the
existing vent opening in the exterior wall.
2. Vent may have one horizontal 90 degree turn before exiting through
exterior wall (Do not combine both offset vent arrangements in one
installation) (See examples in the installation manual)
• High Rise Vent Arrangement
3. When vent termination is more than 80” above the base of the heater.
The horizontal vent run must be a minimum of 22” from the center of the
heater to the outside exterior wall surface. (See example in the
installation manual)
• Vent termination clearance hole through the exterior wall should be
approximately 7” diameter.
• Snow accumulation and drifting should be considered when locating the
termination.
• An optional wire grill vent cap protector is available through the parts
department. Request part number 9006627.
• See the installation manual for complete installation and venting
requirements.
