Filter Kit; Standard Venting; Venting For Condensing Application - Camus Hydronics MFH060 Installation, Operation And Service Manual

The following applies to outdoor air installations:
1. Use only factory supplied air intake terminal.
2. Periodically check to ensure that air intake is not obstructed.
3. Refer to local codes for proper installation and location of vent terminals. Vertical vent terminal
must be at least 3 feet above the highest point where it is located above the roof of a building and
at least two feet higher than any part of the building within a horizontal distance of ten feet
4. Locate the air intake five feet away from the vent discharge. For sidewall venting locate the air
intake below the vent outlet if possible.

FILTER KIT

A louvered rear panel is the standard air inlet configuration for the MicoFlame. A filter kit is available. The
filter is washable and accounts for an additional pressure loss of less than 0.05" W.C. Highly
recommended for dusty environments.
The filter kit can also be provided when using the outdoor air kit.

STANDARD VENTING

The MicoFlame is a category 1 appliance and is approved for venting into a common standard chimney. If
chimney height is much greater than 30 feet or if drafts are excessive, it may be preferable to provide a
single acting barometric damper directly above the vent collar. This damper will ensure smooth light off
and minimize standby loss through the boiler. Be sure to position the damper at least 6 "away from the wall
of the vent connector.

VENTING FOR CONDENSING APPLICATION

When supplied with the optional condensing cartridge, the MicoFlame is 95% efficient (category II or IV
appliance) which requires the use of a special venting system fabricated from AL29-4C or equivalent
material. Only venting components listed by a nationally recognized testing agency may be used.
This appliance may be installed with conventional, sidewall or vertical venting. Conventional vented
appliances operate with negative pressure in the vent pipe and require a special vent adapter to increase
the flue outlet diameter. Sidewall and vertically vented appliances operate with positive pressure in the
vent pipe and may be directly connected to the flue outlet without the use of an increaser.
Consult the vent pipe manufacturer's instructions for minimum clearances to combustible material for vent
components. In the absence of instructions, the minimum clearance to combustible material is six inches.
Consult vent pipe manufacturer's instructions for proper method of sealing vent pipe sections and fittings.
In the absence of instructions, make sure that pipe and fittings are clean by swabbing with alcohol. Use
Dow Corning 736 or 732 RTV, Polybar # 500 RTV or Sil-bond 4500 or 6500 to seal vent pipe. Do not use
other sealants or adhesives except as expressly permitted by vent manufacturer's instructions.
Consult vent pipe manufacturer's instructions for vent system assembly. Follow vent pipe manufacturer's
instructions if those instructions differ from this section.
