INSTALLER'S GUIDE
NOTE: Do not allow insulation or other materials to accumu-
late inside pipe assembly when installing through hole.
CAUTION
L
!
DO NOT USE FIELD SUPPLIED COUPLINGS TO EXTEND
MAIN BODY PIPES (4" AND 2-1/2" PIPES). AIRFLOW RE-
STRICTION WILL OCCUR AND THE FURNACE OR BOILER
PRESSURE SWITCH MAY CAUSE INTERMITTENT OPERA-
TION.
5. Install rain cap and small diameter pipe assembly in Wye
concentric fitting and large pipe assembly. Ensure small
diameter pipe is bottomed and cemented in Wye concentric
fitting.
WARNING
L
!
DRILL A PILOT HOLE IN THE VENT PIPE FOR THE SCREW
SIZE BEING USED. FAILURE TO DRILL ADEQUATE HOLES
MAY CAUSE CRACKING OF THE PVC COMPONENTS, AL-
LOWING FLUE GASES TO BE RECIRCULATED. FAILURE TO
FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN PROPERTY
DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
6. Secure assembly to structure as shown in Figure 6 using field
supplied metal strapping or equivalent support material.
NOTE: Ensure termination location clearance dimensions
as shown in Figure 5. Do not locate the vent cap directly to
the wall surface. A distance of 1" ± 1/2" is required to prevent
water accumulating between the vent fins.
NOTE: If assembly needs to be extended to allow side wall
thickness requirement, the two pipes supplied in the kit may
be replaced by using same diameter, field supplied SDR-26
PVC (D2241) pipe. Do not extend the 4" pipe (24" as shipped)
to more than 60 in. (See Figure 2). The 4" pipe may be short-
ened to 14" minimum.

plumber or gasfitter shall observe that a hard wired carbon
monoxide detector with an alarm and battery back-up is
installed on the floor level where the gas equipment is to
be installed. In addition, the installing plumber or gasfitter
shall observe that a battery operated or hard wired carbon
monoxide detector with an alarm is installed on each
additional level of the dwelling, building or structure served
by the side wall horizontal vented gas fueled equipment. It
shall be the responsibility of the property owner to secure the
services of qualified licensed professionals for the installation
of hard wired carbon monoxide detectors.

In the event that the side wall horizontally vented
gas fueled equipment is installed in a crawl space or an
attic, the hard wired carbon monoxide detector with alarm
and battery back-up may be installed on the next adjacent
floor level.
b.
In the event that the requirements of this subdivision
can not be met at the time of completion of installation, the
owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days to comply with
the above requirements; provided, however, that during said
thirty (30) day period, a battery operated carbon monoxide
detector with an alarm shall be installed.

carbon monoxide detector as required in accordance with the
above provisions shall comply with NFPA 720 and be ANSI/UL
2034 listed and IAS certified.
3. SIGNAGE. A metal or plastic identification plate shall
be permanently mounted to the exterior of the building at a
minimum height of eight (8) feet above grade directly in line
with the exhaust vent terminal for the horizontally vented
gas fueled heating appliance or equipment. The sign shall
read, in print size no less than one-half (1/2) inch in size,
"GAS VENT DIRECTLY BELOW. KEEP CLEAR OF ALL
OBSTRUCTIONS".
4. INSPECTION. The state or local gas inspector of the
side wall horizontally vented gas fueled equipment shall not
approve the installation unless, upon inspection, the inspector
observes carbon monoxide detectors and signage installed
in accordance with the provisions of 248 CMR 5.08(2)(a)1
through 4.
