Typical Vent Installation

See Approved Venting Components on page 40 of this
manual.
Vent Location
The vent terminal must be located throught 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.
Co-linear installations ONLY. If splices are required,
use an 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.
• Co-linear venting may be converted to solid 4" x
6-5/8" co-axial venting at the top of the existing solid-
fuel burning chimney as necessary where the exist-
ing chimney has deteriorated and been removed.
The conversion must be done using approved com-
ponents (see page 40) and proper vent clearances
to combustibles must be maintained.
• Flex lilners may only be installed into solid-fule burn-
ing fi replaces and chimney systems (no combustible
constructions).
• The appliance must not be connected to a chimney
fl ue serving a separate solid-fuel burning appliance.
Note
This appliance may also be vented using the optional
720SWK—Co-Linear Sidewall Kit as shown on page 10.
See installation instructions packaged with the kit.

NOTE
Co-linear or co-axial flexible aluminum venting
liners should be professionally inspected
periodically for corrosion and damage and
replaced when necessary. If the installation does
not allow for future inspection or replacement of
the flexible aluminum liners, then stainless steel
vent liners are recommended.
