Step 1.
Check the installation instructions for required 1 in. (25mm)
clearances (air space) to combustibles when passing through
ceilings, walls, roofs, enclosures, attic rafters, or other nearby
combustible surfaces. See page 17,

Figure 5.15. Check the

instructions below for maximum vertical rise of the venting
system, and any maximum horizontal offset limitations. All
offsets must fall within the set parameters of the vent graph
(

Figure 5.2) located on page 12.

NOTE: Maximum vertical rise allowable is 35 ft. (11m),
Figure 5.11.

NOTE: Maximum number of 45° elbows permitted for a
vertical installation is eight, provided their installation does
not decrease maximum allowable horizontal run (as specified
by vent graph, on page 12).

et the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb

bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appliance
flue exit, and mark the location where the vent will penetrate
the ceiling. Drill a small hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb
bob from the roof to the hole previously drilled in the ceiling,
and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof.
Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters, or other framing will
obstruct the venting system. You may wish to relocate the
appliance, or to offset, as shown in

Figure 5.12 to avoid

cutting loadbearing members.
