Review the following sequence of instructions
which are typical of most installations. The se-
quence may vary depending on wall thickness.
See the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations"
section for vent location and clearance
dimensions, and "Vent Restrictor Position"
section to set the Vent Restrictor to the
correct position.
1. Set the unit in its desired location. Check
to determine if wall studs will be in the way
of the venting system, adjust location until
all clearances are met and there are no
obstructions.
Flue pipe Clearances to Combustibles
Horizontal top = 3"
Horizontal sides = 2"
Horizontal bottom = 2"
Vertical = 2"
Passing through wall/floor/ceiling
when fire-stop is used = 1-1/2"
Note: Center line dimensions shown are specifically
when using these 2 vent kits only.

MPORTANT:
Do not locate termination hood where exces-
sive snow or ice buildup may occur. Be sure
to check vent termination area after snow
falls, and clear to prevent accidental block-
age of venting system. When using snow
blowers, make sure snow is not directed
towards vent termination area.
