Direct (Side-Wall) Venting
The furnace may also be horizontally vented through a sidewall. Thermo Products has available
the side wall vent kits for such applications. When installing the sidewall vent kits, outside
combustion air must also be applied to the burner. The following table identifies application
order information.

Power (Side-Wall) Venting – Important Note Regarding
cCAUTION: Thermo Products, LLC will NOT assume responsibility for damage to, and
deterioration of, exterior building materials, e.g. brick, siding, clapboards, and etc., in close
proximity to the vent terminal due to operation of a power vented, oil furnace. This policy
is applicable regardless of the cause of sooting.
Two (2) problems typically arise when power venting any oil-fired appliance.
1) Soot buildup may occur at an accelerated rate on critical components of the furnace oil
burner, e.g. the primary control flame sensor ("cad cell"), the burner head, and oil nozzle.
2) Severe damage may occur to external surfaces of the structure in the event the furnace
continually produces a high level of smoke in the flue gases. Excess smoke and soot can be
produced for many reasons, some of which cannot be successfully controlled by the installer
and the appliance manufacturer.
NOTICE: Thermo Products recommends the use of a chimney to vent residential oil
furnaces. If a power venter must be used, it is the responsibility of the installer and power
venter manufacturer to design, assemble, and demonstrate proper operation of the power
venting system with the furnace.
