  • Page 23: Flueing Introduction

    installation FLUEING INTRODUCTION The GF1500LST uses the "balanced flue" technology Co-Axial system. The inner liner vents products of combustion to the outside while the outer liner draws outside combustion air into the combustion chamber thereby eliminating the need to use heated room air for combustion and losing warm room air up the flue. Note: These flue pipes must not be connected to any other appliance. The gas appliance and flue system must be vented directly to the outside of the building, and never be attached to a flue system serving a separate solid fuel or gas burning appliance. Each direct vent gas appliance must use it's own separate flue system. Common flue systems are prohibited. FLUEING ARRANGEMENT FOR HORIZONTAL TERMINATIONS The diagram shows all allowable combinations of vertical runs with horizontal terminations, using one 90 (two 45 elbows equal one 90 elbow).
