WA RN IN G: Combustion by-products contain a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

6.4 Horizontal Venting

Horizontally vented heaters must be individually vented.

Vent pipe must be sloped ¼" (.6 cm) for every 1' (.3 m). For vent lengths greater than 5' (1.5 m), condensation will form. Insulation is recommended and condensation drains may be desired. For vents pitched up toward the vent terminal, place the condensation drain within 5' (1.5 m) of the heater.

In noncombustible walls only, vent terminal (P/N 02537801-1P) may be used.

For 4'' (10 cm) vents in either combustible or noncombustible walls, use vent terminal (P/N

90502100) or equivalent insulated vent terminal. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper installation.

Instead of an insulated vent terminal, a listed thimble (with 2" air gap) may be used with a 4" vent cap (P/N

90502102).

6.5 Vertical Venting

Vertically vented heaters can be common vented (up to 4 heaters). For vent lengths greater than 5' (1.5 m), condensation will form. Insulation is recommended and condensation drains may be desired. Vent from the rear of the heater cabinet then run the vent vertically and use a condensate drain at the bottom of the vertical vent. Vent pipe must be sloped 1/4'' (.6 cm) for every 1' (.3 m).

For 4'' (10 cm), an approved vent cap (P/N 90502102) must be used.

For 6'' (15 cm) common vent, an approved vent cap (P/N 90502103) must be used.

For common vertical venting of more than two heaters,

See Page 10, Figure 5.

A vent shall not extend less than 2' (.6m) above the highest point where it passes through a flat roof of a building.

6.6 Length Requirements

If using vent lengths greater than 5' (1.5 m), condensation will form in the vent pipe. Insulation and additional sealing measures (high temperature silicone at all seams) are required. The entire vent should be insulated with foil faced fiberglass insulation (1/2" thick, 1-1/2# density minimum).

SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY

7.1 Separated Combustion Installation

When installed as a separated combustion heater, the air for combustion is drawn in from outside the building. It is important to ensure that there is adequate space around heater to provide air for the axial air distribution fan.

7.2 Unvented Installation

It is important to ensure that there is adequate fresh air supply at all times for both combustion and heating requirements in accordance with local and national codes.

WARNING: Combustion by-products contain a chemical known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm.

7.3 Building Ventilation

Where ventilation is required, air must be taken from an outside point where it is not likely to be contaminated or obstructed.

SECTION 7: AIR SUPPLY

7.4 Outside Combustion Air Supply

If outside combustion air supply is required, separated combustion model (UHAS) heaters must be used.

IMPORTANT: If the building has a slight negative pressure or corrosive contaminants such as halogenated hydrocarbons are present in the air, an outside combustion air supply to the heater is required. Seal all combustion air pipe joints. The air supply duct may have to be insulated to prevent condensation on the outer surface. The outside air terminal must not be more than 1' (31 cm) above the vent terminal.
