Alternate installations for close clearances
Venting systems come in many varieties. Select the type best for
your installation. A close-clearance installation is shown below.
Refer to the manufacturer's instructions.
Over-the-top installation (also available with one offset elbow)
Over-the-top Installation Kit Part Number 4396028 for close
clearance alternate installation is available for purchase. For
ordering information see "Assistance or Service."
Special provisions for mobile home installations
The exhaust vent must be securely fastened to a noncombustible
portion of the mobile home structure and must not terminate
beneath the mobile home. Terminate the exhaust vent outside.
Determine vent path
Select the route that will provide the straightest and most
direct path outdoors.
Plan the installation to use the fewest number of elbows and
turns.
When using elbows or making turns, allow as much room as
possible.
Bend vent gradually to avoid kinking.
Use the fewest 90° turns possible.
