Montigo supplies a variety of power venting options. The location of
the power vent should be selected and laid out to provide the shortest
possible run to an external wall or through the roof.

Power Vent
This section applies to installations where the shortest possible vent
run is through the roof. Refer to AppendixA -PowerVentlocations,
to ensure the planned Power vent location is acceptable. Once the
vent location has been established, please refer to the appropriate

Selection of components and details of venting lay out should adhere
to the following guidelines:
■ Ensure there is a minimum run of 2' of straight pipe before
the power vent
■ Ensure the maximum vent run does not exceed 80'
■ Ensure the number of 90° elbows does not exceed 6
■ Ensure the number of 45° elbows does not exceed 12
