Venting Requirements

Vent system must terminate to the outside, except for non-
vented (recirculating) installations.
Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed
area.
Do not use a 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
Use metal vent only. A rigid metal vent is recommended.
Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.
The length of the vent system and number of elbows should
be kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
For the most efficient and quiet operation:
Use no more than three 90° elbows.
Make sure there is a minimum of 24" (61.0 cm) of straight
vent between the elbows if more than 1 elbow is used.
Do not install 2 elbows together.
The vent system must have a damper.
Use clamps to seal all joints in the vent system.
Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the
cap.
The size of the vent should be uniform.
