Important! Vent Installation and
Termination Requirements
• Maximum horizontal vent distance is 80” to outside of exterior wall
• Minimum horizontal vent distance is 17” to outside of exterior wall
• Vent pipes may be trimmed (cut) for short vent installations
• For vent installation less than 30” the vent restrictor is required.
Place restrictor over the flue outlet on heater before installing the
outlet vent pipe to the heater
• Recommended installation height for the heater and vent pipe
should be 68” for 40-gallon models and 76” for the 50 and 75gallon models (vent height)
• Offset Vent Arrangement
1. When replacing an existing direct vent model, the new vent pipe
may drop from the minimum vent height as much as 7-1/4” to
exit through the existing vent opening in the exterior wall
2. Vent may have one horizontal 90° degree turn before exiting
through exterior wall (Do not combine both offset vent
arrangements in one installation) (See examples in the
installation manual)
• High Rise Vent Arrangement
3. When vent termination is more than 80” above the base of the
heater. The horizontal vent runs must be a minimum of 22” from
the center of the heater to the outside exterior wall surface.
(See example in the installation manual)
• Vent termination clearance hole through the exterior wall should be
approximately 7” diameter
• Snow accululation and drifting should be considered when locating
the termination
• An optional wire grill vent cap protector is available through the
parts department. Request part number 9006627005.
• See the installation manual for complete installation and
venting requirements.
