••
Allowable vent con gurations and clearances for the
530 heater are listed in this manual and apply for all
vent components listed on pages 40––41. For details of
component installation, follow instructions packaged with
each component.
••
The 530 heater is supplied with a smooth 4 by 6-5/8-inch
co-axial collar. All vertical termination applications will
require an 817VAK Vent Adapter to convert the collar to
a twist-lock type. All other manufacturers’' components
listed have designed their components to  t the twist-
lock type collar.
••
Do not mix components from different manufacturers.
••
Do not cut pipe lengths. Use adjustable lengths. Check
the roof pitch to determine which roof  ashing will be
needed.
••
The minimum clearances to combustible materials all
round the vent pipes must be in accordance with the
dimensions shown previously in this manual.
1. If using rear vent connection to the appliance,  t a
90 degrees elbow to the appliance vent adapter.
2. Place the appliance in its proper location.
3. Drop a plumb from the ceiling to the center of the appliance
vent opening. Mark the position on the
ceiling. Drill a small hole at the marked position.
4. Determine the position where the vent will pass through the
roof. If directly above the position where it penetrates
the ceiling, drop a plumb from the roof to the small hole
in the ceiling and mark the roof at this spot. If rafters or
other obstructions will prevent a vertical exit or if clear
attic space is desired, the roof outlet can be offset using
elbows. Drill a small hole at the marked position.
5. A ceiling  restop must be installed at the second  oor and
higher  oors. A ceiling support should be used below the  at ceiling. To install the
 restop and support, cut and frame a 10-inch (254 mm) square hole centered on
the small hole previously drilled.
6. Fit vent accessory elbows and pipe lengths as required up through ceiling support
boxes and  restops. If installation includes offset, support the offsetting pipes every
3 feet (0.9 m) with wall straps.
7. Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small hole. The hole must allow for the minimum
clearances to combustible materials
8. Fit pipe lengths through the roof. Fit roof  ashing securing it with roo ng nails.
9. Fit storm collar and termination cap.
10. FS installations. Secure the appliance to the  oor or wall if necessary.
