Venting System
Venting Methods
NOTES:
• Flexible vent is not recommended. Flexible vent creates both
back pressure and air turbulence that greatly reduce
performance.
• The vent system is optional for this model.
Vent system can terminate either through the roof or wall. Use 7"
(17.8 cm) or larger round vent with a maximum length of 50 ft
(15.2 m) for vent system.

Cold Weather Installations
An additional back draft damper should be installed to minimize
backward cold air flow and a thermal break should be installed to
minimize conduction of outside temperatures as part of the vent
system. The damper should be on the cold air side of the thermal
break.
The break should be as close as possible to where the vent
system enters the heated portion of the house.
Makeup Air
Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems
when using ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air
movement. The specified CFM varies from locale to locale.
Consult your HVAC professional for specific requirements in your
area.
Venting Requirements
Vent system must terminate to the outdoors.
Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed
area.
• Do not use a 4" (10.2 cm) laundry-type wall cap.
• Use 7" (17.8 cm) round metal vent. Rigid metal vent is
recommended. Plastic or metal foil vent is not recommended.
The length of vent system and number of elbows should be
kept to a minimum to provide efficient performance.
