Venting

Typical Vent Installation
See the Approved Venting Components list on page 45 of
this manual.
Vent Location
The vent terminal must be located through the roof.
This direct vent appliance is designed to operate when
an undisturbed airflow hits the outside vent terminal
from any direction.
Check local codes for allowable vertical vent
termination.

Venting Notes
Where possible, avoid splicing flex pipes. If splices are
required, use a approved connector and seal joints with
RTV high temp sealant.
Four feet horizontal is permissible to allow for routing
around masonry projections. Do not bend flex pipe
over a 45 degrees radius.
1. Co-linear venting may be converted to solid 4" x
6-5/8" co-axial venting at the top of the existing sol-
id-fuel burning chimney as necessary where the ex-
isting chimney has deteriorated and been removed.
The conversion must be done using approved com-
ponents (see page 45) and proper vent clearances
to combustibles must be maintained.
2. Flex liners may only be installed into solid-fuel burn-
ing fi replaces and chimney systems (no combustible
construction).
3. The appliance must not be connected to a chimney
fl ue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
