The ML193UH can be installed as either a Non-Direct
Vent or a Direct Vent gas central furnace.
NOTE - In Non-Direct Vent installations, combustion air
is taken from indoors and flue gases are discharged out-
doors. In Direct Vent installations, combustion air is taken
from outdoors and flue gases are discharged outdoors.
Intake and exhaust pipe sizing -- Size pipe according
to tables 4 and 5. Count all elbows inside and outside the
home. Table 4 lists the minimum vent pipe lengths per-
mitted. Table 5 lists the maximum pipe lengths permitted.
Regardless of the diameter of pipe used, the standard roof
and wall terminations described in section Exhaust Piping
Terminations should be used. Exhaust vent termination
pipe is sized to optimize the velocity of the exhaust gas as
it exits the termination. Refer to table 8.
In some applications which permit the use of several dif-
ferent sizes of vent pipe, a combination vent pipe may be
used. Contact Lennox' Application Department for assis-
tance in sizing vent pipe in these applications.
NOTE - The exhaust collar on all models is sized to ac-
commodate 2" Schedule 40 vent pipe. In horizontal ap-
plications, any transition to exhaust pipe larger than 2"
must be made in vertical runs of the pipe. Therefore a 2"
elbow must be added before the pipe is transitioned to
any size larger than 2". This elbow must be added to the
elbow count used to determine acceptable vent lengths.
Contact the Application Department for more information
concerning sizing of vent systems which include multiple
pipe sizes.

NOTE - Exhaust pipe MUST be glued to furnace exhaust fittings.
NOTE - Exhaust piping should be checked carefully to make
sure there are no sags or low spots.

Do not use screens or perforated metal in exhaust or
intake terminations. Doing so will cause freeze-ups and
may block the terminations.
