Category I Furnaces With External Power
Venters

In order to maintain a Category I classification of fan-assisted fur­

naces when vented horizontally with sidewall termination, a power
venter is REQUIRED to maintain a negative pressure in the vent­
ing system.

In the U.S.: Per the NFGC, a listed power venter may be used,

when approved by the authority having jurisdiction.

In Canada: Only power venters approved by the appliance

manufacturer and where allowed by the authority having Jurisdic­
tion may be used

Please consult the Fields Controls Co. or TJernlund Products, Inc.

for power venters certified for use with our furnaces.

Vent Termination

Venting Through a Non-Combustible and

Combustible Wall

Consult External Power Venter manufacturer instructions.

Select the power venter to match the Btuh input of the furnace be­
ing vented. Follow all of the Power Venter manufacturer's installa­

tion requirements included with the power venter for:

venting installation,

vent terminal location,

preventing blockage by snow,

protecting building materials from degradation by flue gases,

see Figure 10 for required vent termination.

NOTE: It is the responsibility of the installer to properly terminate

the vent and provide adequate shielding. This is essential in order
to avoid water/ice damage to building, shrubs and walkways.
