INSTALLATION - ROOF TERMINATION (SEE FIG. 3)
1.­ Determine­best­location­for­termination­kit.
2.­ Cut­one­hole­(5­in.­diameter)­for­vent­kit.
NOTE: Ensure termination height is above the roof surface
or anticipated snow level (1 ft. in USA or 1 1/2 ft. in Canada)
as shown in Figure 4.
NOTE: If assembly is too short to meet the height require-
ment, the two pipes supplied in the kit may be replaced by
using same diameter, field supplied SDR-26 PVC (ASTM
D2241) pipe. Do not extend the 4" pipe (24" as shipped) to
more than 60 in. (See Figure 2).
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.

WARNING
s s
FAILURE TO REMOVE RIBS FROM RAIN CAP FOR VERTI-
CAL VENT KIT INSTALLATIONS MAY CAUSE ICE OR SNOW
TO FORM ON THE RAIN CAP, LEADING TO AN INOPERABLE
FURNACE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD
RESULT IN PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR
DEATH.
NOTE: Kit supplied stainless steel screw will be used to se-
cure the rain cap to the pipe.
WARNING
s s
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.

tion distance of approximately one inch between vent kits.
WARNING

DO NOT OPERATE THE FURNACE OR BOILER WITHOUT
THE RAIN CAP IN PLACE AS RECIRCULATION OF COM-
BUSTION PRODUCTS MAY OCCUR. WATER MAY ALSO
COLLECT INSIDE THE LARGER COMBUSTION AIR PIPE
