- Page 16 INSTALLATION OF VENTILATION SYSTEM Note: As air flow is essential to the operation of the unit, the fewer bends that are used when installing the vent system the better. Plan the vent pipe layout. The hole for the vent pipe is best at the side of the tank towards the front of the unit near the inspection door, as far as practical from the nearest chute entry.
- Page 17 Secure Wallace seal into position. Tip: Putting the wallace seal in hot water for 5 minutes can help when installing the PVC pipe. Secure pipe fittings according to building/roofing instructions. Complexity may vary. Mount the fan housing onto the vent pipe. Position the fan housing so that it can be easily accessed and secure with silicon.
- Page 18 Install the vent cowl or optional turbo vent. Secure with 3 self-tapping screws. 900mm (min.) Attach the upper section of the vent pipe. The pipe should be supported against the wall of the building with the brackets provided (2,3). IMCM-8.280421 www.ecoflo.com.au 1300-138-182...
