NOTE: The roof vent location is preferred since it is less
susceptible to damage, has reduced chances to intake con-
taminants, and vent vapors are less visible.
NOTE: Codes and local utility requirements governing the
installation of gas red equipment, wiring, plumbing, and
ue connections must be adhered to. In the absence of local
codes, the installation must conform with the Nation Fuel
Gas Code ANSI Z223.1 "latest edition", or CAN/ CGA B149
Installation Codes. The latest code may be obtained from the
American Gas Association Laboratories 400 N. Capitol St.
NW, Washington D.C. 20001, 1-800-699-9277 or www.aga.

NOTE: Read the Installer's Guide before starting the instal-
lation. Refer to the Furnace or boiler Installer's Guide for
equivalent vent lengths. The BAYAIR30CNVENT is 5 equiva-
lent feet.

NOTE: Ensure termination height is above the roof surface
or anticipated snow level (1 ft. in USA or 1 1/2 ft. in Canada)
as shown in Figure 4.
NOTE: If assembly is too short to meet the height require-
ment, the two pipes supplied in the kit may be replaced by
using same diameter, eld supplied SDR-26 PVC (ASTM
D2241) pipe. Do not extend the 4" pipe (24" as shipped) to
more than 60 in. (See Figure 2).

WARNING
DO NOT OPERATE THE FURNACE OR BOILER WITHOUT
THE RAIN CAP IN PLACE AS RECIRCULATION OF COM-
BUSTION PRODUCTS MAY OCCUR. WATER MAY ALSO
COLLECT INSIDE THE LARGER COMBUSTION AIR PIPE

CAUTION
DO NOT USE FIELD SUPPLIED COUPLINGS TO EXTEND
MAIN BODY PIPES (4" AND 2-1/2" PIPES). AIRFLOW RE-

NOTE: Consider the following when determining the vent kit
location:
A. Vent kit positioned where the vent vapors will not damage
planting/ shrubs or air conditioning equipment or building
structure.
B. Vent kit positioned so it will not be affected by wind eddy
that may allow recirculation of combustion products, or air-
borne leaves, or light snow.
C. Vent kit positioned where it will not get damaged or be
subjected to foreign objects, such as stones, balls, etc.
D. Vent kit positioned where the vent vapors will not be ob-
jectionable.

NOTE: To prevent the possiblility of condenate freeze-up, do
not install vent kits one above the other.
NOTE: FLUE GAS DEGRADATION
The moisture content of the ue gas may have a detrimental
effect on some building materials. This can be avoided by
using the roof or chimney venting option. When wall venting
is used on any surface that can be affected by this mois-
ture, it is recommended that a corrosion resistance shield
(24 inches square) be used behind the Vent Terminal. This
shield can be made of wood, plastic, sheet metal, etc. Also,
silicone caulk all cracks, seams, and joints within 3 feet of
the Vent Terminal.

suppliedmetalstrappingorequivalentsupportmaterial.
NOTE: Ensure termination location clearance dimensions as
shown in Figure 5. Do not locate the vent cap directly to the
wall surface. A distance of 1" ± 1/2" is required to prevent
water accumulating between the vent ns.
NOTE: If assembly needs to be extended to allow side wall
thickness requirement, the two pipes supplied in the kit may
be replaced by using same diameter, eld supplied SDR-26
PVC (D2241) pipe. Do not extend the 4" pipe (24" as shipped)
to more than 60 in. (See Figure 2). The 4" pipe may be short-
ened to 14" minimum.
NOTE: Do not allow insulation or other materials to accumu-
late inside pipe assembly when installing through hole.
