INSTALLATION
FIG. 15 Air Inlet Cap for Sidewall Termination
To prevent recirculation of flue products from an adjacent vent
cap into the combustion air inlet, follow all applicable
clearance requirements in the latest edition of the National
Fuel Gas Code and/or CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Code and
instructions in the Installation and Service Manual.
You must install the combustion air inlet cap at least one foot
(0.30m) above ground level and above normal snow levels.
The point of termination for the combustion air inlet cap must
be at least 3 feet (0.91m) below the point of flue gas
termination (powered vent cap) if it is located within 10 feet
(3.05m) of the flue outlet from the powered vent cap. Make
sure to properly install the air inlet cap assembly on the air
inlet pipe.

*Outside air openings shall directly communicate with the outdoors. When combustion air is drawn from the outside through a duct, the net free area of each of the two openings
must have twice (2 times) the free area required for Outside Air/2 Openings. The above requirements are for the boiler only, additional gas fired units in the boiler room will require
an increase in the net free area to supply adequate combustion air for all units. Combustion air requirements are based on the latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI
Z223.1, in Canada refer to CAN/CGA-B149 Installation Code. Check all local code requirements for combustion air.
