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 vent pipe should be 68” for 40
gallon models and 76” for the 50-gallon 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, part number 9006627.
See the installation manual for complete
installation and venting requirements.
