DIRECT VENT — Sidewall with W-M vent/air plate
Use only the vent materials and kits listed in
Figure 21, page 19. Provide pipe adapters if
specified.
1. Locate the termination such that the total air pip-
ing and vent piping from the boiler to the termina-
tion will not exceed the maximum length given in
Figure 20, page 18.
For polypropylene applications, comply with
any additional requirements in the vent system
manufacturer's instructions. Provide 4" PVC-
to-PP transition pieces at the boiler vent and
air connections. PP adapter must have smooth,
straight section of pipe to insert in to the boiler
vent and air connections and must fit and seal
tightly. PP adapters with their own seal which
would interfere with the internal seal of the
boiler vent or air connections must not be
used. Refer to page 115 for a list of compliant
adapters. Install a locking collar at every joint.
For AL29-4C vent pipe applications, comply
with any additional requirements in the vent
system manufacturer's instructions. Provide 4"
PVC transition pieces at the boiler and at the
vent and air terminations. (The air pipe must
be PVC or CPVC.)
2. For 4" to 3" transitions, must use appropriate vent
material. For polypropylene or stainless steel must use
approved suppliers transitions (EVG 220 only).
1. Wall penetration thickness between 0" to 24".
2. The vent/air cap must be installed as shown in
Figure 30, page 26.
3. The termination must comply with clearances and limi-
tations shown in Figure 22, page 21.
4. Locate the termination so it is not likely to be damaged
by foreign objects, such as stones or balls, or subject to
buildup of leaves or sediment.
1. When terminating multiple Evergreen
minate each vent/air connection as described in this
manual.
All vent pipes and air inlets must terminate at
the same height to avoid possibility of severe
personal injury, death or substantial property
damage.
2. Place wall penetrations to obtain minimum clearance
as shown in for U. S. installations. For Canadian instal-
lations, provide clearances required by CSA B149.1 or
B149.2 Installation Code and a ULC S636 compliant
vent kit.
3. The air inlet of a Evergreen
vent connection. It is not classified as a forced air intake
with regard to spacing from adjacent boiler vents.
For terminations of other appliances, provide
at least the clearance shown . The installation
must also comply with the manual for the
other appliances.

Install the boiler in a location that allows proper routing of all
vent and air piping to the selected sidewall location.
Make sure the selected sidewall termination location complies
with Figure 22, page 21. (Multiple boiler sidewall plates must
also comply with Figure 25, page 24.)
Use only the vent materials listed in Figure 21, page 19. Provide
pipe adapters where required.
Vent piping and air piping lengths must not exceed the values
shown in Figure 20, page 18.
Ensure proper clearance above grade or snowline. Keep vents/
air intake area clear of accumulating snow.
Prepare the sidewall penetrations and secure the sidewall plates
as instructed in this section. See "Install Weil-McLain vent/air
cap" on page 26.
The Weil-McLain plate termination must be installed before
piping from the boiler to the termination.
Install vent and air piping between the boiler and the vent/air
termination plate. Slope horizontal piping downward toward
the boiler at least 1/4 inch per foot. See page 34 for general
guidelines.
Install pipe supports every 5 feet on both the horizontal and
vertical runs, or per vent pipe manufacturer's instructions.
Install a hanger support within 6 inches of any upturn in the
piping, or per vent pipe manufacturer's instructions.
