! WARNING
THESE INSTRUCTIONS ARE INTENDED AS AN AID TO QUALIFIED SERVICE PERSONNEL FOR PROPER INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT AND OPERATION OF THIS KIT. READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS THOROUGHLY BEFORE ATTEMPTING INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT OR OPERATION. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS CAN RESULT IN IMPROPER INSTALLATION, ADJUSTMENT, SERVICE, OR MAINTENANCE POSSIBLY RESULTING IN FIRE, ELECTRICAL SHOCK, PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
! WARNING
THIS KIT IS TO BE USED ONLY FOR TERMINATING CATEGORY IV CONDENSING GAS FURNACES. DO NOT USE THIS KIT TO TERMINATE ANY OTHER TYPE OF FURNACE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN FIRE, PERSONAL INJURY, OR DEATH.
LOCATION
The Concentric Vent Termination Kit can be installed in either rooftop or sidewall orientation. Before installation procedures begin, determine the best location for the termination kit.
NOTE: Roof termination is recommended as it is less susceptible to damage, reduces chances of air intake contaminants, and less visible vent vapors.
ROOF INSTALLATION
STEP 1: Cut a 4" (-E02, -E02A) or 5" (-E02, -E03A) diameter opening in the roof and install field-supplied weatherseal boot/flashing for the PVC air intake pipe.
STEP 2: Assemble the Vent Pipe Assembly by cleaning and cementing the rain cap to the smaller diameter PVC pipe (see Figure 2). Assemble the Intake Pipe Assembly by cleaning and cementing the “Y” fitting to the large diameter pipe (see Figure 3).
NOTE: If field disassembly is desired for cleaning, a field-sup- plied stainless-steel screw may be used to secure the vent cap to the PVC vent pipe instead of cement.
! WARNING
WHEN USING ALTERNATE SCREW METHOD, PREDRILL CLEARANCE HOLE IN RAIN CAP AND PILOT HOLE IN VENT PIPE TO MATCH THE SCREW SIZE BEING USED. FAILURE TO DO SO MAY CAUSE CRACKING OF THE PVC COMPONENTS, ALLOWING COMBUSTION PRODUCTS TO BE RECIRCULATED. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

! WARNING
DO NOT OPERATE THE FURNACE WITH THE RAIN CAP REMOVED OR RECIRCULATION OF COMBUSTION PRODUCTS MAY OCCUR. THE COMBUSTION AIR PIPE MAY ALSO TAKE IN WATER, CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE FURNACE. FAILURE TO FOLLOW THIS WARNING COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE UNIT, IMPROPER OPERATION, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
STEP 3: From below, work the intake pipe up through the seal boot, ensuring that no insulation or debris accumulate in the pipe.
STEP 4: To secure the intake pipe assembly use a field-sup- plied perforated strap or a suitable type material.
NOTE: Ensure termination height is above the roof surface or anticipated snow level (1 ft. in USA or 1-1/2 ft. in Canada).
STEP 5: From the roof top, slide the vent pipe assembly down through the intake pipe. Cement the top of the intake pipe to the rain hood and the bottom of the vent pipe to the inner bushing of the the intake pipe assembly’s “Y” fitting.
STEP 6: Complete vent and intake connections to the furnace.
SIDEWALL INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT: When installing the kit in a sidewall installation, consider the following when choosing a location:
*Kit is positioned where vent vapors will not damage plants/shrubs or air conditioning equipment
*Kit is positioned so that wind will not cause combustion products, leaves, snow or other debris from entering the air intake.
*Kit is positioned where it will not get damaged by foreign objects (i.e. balls, stones, etc.)
*Kit is positioned where vent vapors will not be inhaled or cause a nuisance.
STEP 1: Cut a 4" (-E02, -E02A) or 5" (-E03, -E03A) diameter opening in the sidewall and install field-supplied weather-seal boot/flashing for the PVC vent pipe.
STEP 2: From inside, work the intake pipe through the hole, ensuring that no insulation or debris accumulate in the pipe.
STEP 3: To secure the intake pipe assembly use a field-sup- plied perforated strap or a suitable type material.
NOTE: Ensure termination height is above the anticipated snow level (1 ft. in USA or 1-1/2 ft. in Canada).
STEP 4: From the outside, slide the vent pipe assembly down through the intake pipe. Cement the top of the intake pipe to the rain hood and the bottom of the vent pipe to the inner bushing of the the intake pipe assembly’s “Y” fitting.
STEP 5: Complete vent and intake connections to the furnace.
