The length
of the vent system and number
of elbows should be kept to a minimum
to
provide
efficient
performance,
The size of
the vent system should be uniform,
Do Not
install two elbows together,
Use duct tape
to seal all joints in vent system, Vent system
can terminate
either through
the roof or
wall, Use caulking
to seal exterior wall or
roof opening
around

Maximum
length of vent system is 26 feet,
For best performance,
use no more than
