manner.
Walls, ceiling, base plate and cantilever À oor of the chase
should be insulated. Vapor and air in¿ ltration barriers should
be installed in the chase as per regional codes for the rest
of the home. Additionally, in regions where cold air in¿ ltar-
tion may be an issue, the inside surfaces be sheetrocked
and taped (or use of an equivalent method) for maximum air
tightness.
To further prevent drafts, the ceiling ¿ restops should be
caulked with high temperature caulk to seal gaps. Gas line
holes and other openings should be caulked with high temperature caulk or stuffed with unfaced insulation. If the appliance is being installed on a cement slab, a layer of plywood
be placed underneath to prevent conducting cold up into the
room.

Asphyxiation Risk
Do NOT connect this gas appliance to a
chimney À ue serving a separate solid-fuel
or gas burning appliance.
• Vent this appliance directly outside.
• Use separate vent system for this
appliance.
May impair safe operation of this appliance or
other appliances connected to the À ue.
B. Use of Elbows
CAUTION
ALL vent configuration specifications MUST be
followed.
• This product is tested and listed to these
speci¿ cations.
• Appliance performance will suffer if speci¿ cations
are not followed.
Diagonal runs have both vertical and horizontal vent aspects
when calculating the effects. Use the rise for the vertical aspect and the run for the horizontal aspect (see Figure 5.1).
Two 45° elbows may be used in place of one 90° elbow. On
45° runs, 1 ft of diagonal is equal to 8-1/2 in. horizontal run
and 8-1/2 in. vertical run. A length of straight pipe is allowed
between two 45° elbows (see Figure 5.1).
Horizontal
Figure 5.1 Using Two 45° Elbows
C. Measuring Standards
Vertical and horizontal measurements listed in the vent diagrams were made using the following standards.
• Pipe measurements are shown using the effective length
of pipe (see Figure 5.2).
• Measurements are made from the appliance outer wrap,
not from the standoffs.
• Horizontal terminations are measured to the outside
mounting surface (À ange of exterior termination) (see
Figure 4.1).
• Vertical terminations are measured to top of last pipe
before termination cap.
• Horizontal pipe installed level with no rise

WARNING
Fire Risk
Explosion Risk
Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles between ¿ restops.
• ALWAYS maintain speci¿ ed clearances around venting and ¿ restop systems.
• Install ¿ restops as speci¿ ed.
Failure to keep insulation or other material away from vent pipe may cause ¿ re.
The ¿ rst 90° elbow MUST be a starter elbow.
To replace the ¿ rst starter elbow with two 45° elbows, refer to Figure 5.4. All other 90° elbows can be replaced with two 45°
elbows.
General Rules:
• SUBTRACT 3 ft (914 mm) from the total H measurement for each 90° elbow installed horizontally.
SUBTRACT 1-1/2 ft (456 mm) from the total H measurement for each 45° elbow installed horizontally.
• A maximum of three 90° elbows (or six 45° elbows) may be used in any vent con¿ guration. Some elbows may be installed
horizontally. See Figure 5.6.
• Elbows may be placed back to back anywhere in the system as long as the ¿ rst 90° elbow is a starter elbow except as
shown in Figure 5.4.
• When penetrating a combustible wall, a wall shield ¿ restop must be installed.
• When penetrating a combustible ceiling, a ceiling ¿ restop must be installed.
• Horizontal runs of vent do not require vertical rise; horizontal runs may be level.
