Venting Through The Wall - Trane UC1B040A9241A series Installer's Manual

Installer's Guide
PITCH – Venting through the wall must maintain 1/4"
per foot pitched upward to insure that condensate
drains back to the furnace.
FLUE GAS DEGRADATION – The moisture content
of the flue 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 resistant
shield (24 inches square) be used behind the vent termi-
nal. This shield can be wood, plastic, sheet metal, etc.
Also, silicone caulk all cracks, seams and joints within 3
feet of the vent terminal.
