Sidewall direct venting
Sidewall termination – optional concentric vent: Models 151 - 601
Description and usage
Lochinvar offers optional concentric combustion air and
vent pipe termination kits (Factory Kit #CVK3003 for 3"
diameter - Models 151 - 200 and #CVK3007 for 4" diameter
- Models 286 - 601). Both combustion air and vent pipes
must attach to the termination kit. The termination kits
must terminate outside the structure and must be installed as
shown below in FIG. 4-7.
Field supplied pipe and fittings are required to complete the
installation.
The required combustion vent pipe materials are listed in
Table 3A, on page 19 of this manual.

1. Determine the best location for the termination kit (see
FIG. 4-7).
2. The total length of piping for vent or air must not exceed
the limits given in the General Venting Section on page
22 of this manual.
3.
You must consider the surroundings when terminating
the vent and air:
a.
Position the vent termination where vapors will
not damage nearby shrubs, plants or air
conditioning equipment or be objectionable.
b. The flue products will form a noticeable plume as
they condense in cold air. Avoid areas where the
plume could obstruct window views.
