Page 13: Venting Tables - Suf 120 - 250
VENTING TABLES – SUF 120 ‑ 250 Maximum equivalent feet of intake and vent pipe using 3" PVC is 50 feet (15.2 m). Equivalent feet must include any 90° elbows (two 45° elbows equal one 90° elbow). Three inch diameter 90° elbows are equivalent to 5' (1.5 m) of pipe. -
Page 14: Concentric Venting
CONCENTRIC VENTING Concentric venting allows for a single wall penetration. For multiple water heater installation using this vent practice any additional vents of this type may be located 12" on centerline to either side of the first vent or 12" on centerline vertically above the first vent. Concentric kits may be extended to a maximum allowable length of 5 feet (152 cm). -
Page 15: Vent Condensation
VENT CONDENSATION Failure to properly install the drain line on the condensate elbow will result in a water heater shut down and a “blocked exhaust” fault message. The average dew point of natural gas flue products is 127°F. Propane flue products is 119°F. With 70°F ambient air temperature and 180°F stored water temperature, exhaust gas will be approximately 140°F. -
