7. V enting and Combustion Air
WARNING: The vent must be installed in accordance with national and local regulations. Failure to provide proper venting could result in death, serious injury and/or property damage. This unit must be installed with a vent to the outside of the building. Safe operation of any power-vented gas-fired equipment requires a properly operating vent system, correct provision for combustion air , and regular maintenance and inspection.
WARNING: Units installed in multiples require individual vent pipe runs and vent caps. Manifolding of vent runs is not permitted due to possible recirculation of combustion products into the building and back pressure effects on the combustion air proving switch.
Venting must be in accordance with the National Fuel Gas Code Z223.1 or CAN/CGA B149.1 and B149.2, Installation Code for Gas Burning Appliances and Equipment, and all local codes. Local requirements supersede national requirements. Combustion air for this heater may be either taken from the space or may be ducted from the outside using the
concentric adapter combustion air/vent system. Flue products must always be vented to the outdoors. Installation should be done by a qualified agency in accordance with these instructions. The qualified service agency installing the vent or vent/combustion air system is responsible for the installation.
The venting or venting/combustion air systems illustrated in this manual are the only ones approved for a Model CAUA heater. However , since more than one system is approved and requirements vary depending on the type of installation, the first step must be deciding which vent or vent/combustion air system is going to be installed. Review the follow­ing matrix of vent types and installation requirements. If there is any doubt as to what type of vent is required, contact the equipment dis­tributor before beginning installation.
Hazards of Chlorines - The presence of chlorine vapors in the com­bustion air of gas-fired heating equipment presents a potential corro­sion hazard. Chlorine will, when exposed to flame, precipitate from the compound, usually freon or degreaser vapors, and go into solution with any condensation that is present in the heat exchanger or associated parts. The result is hydrochloric acid which readily attacks all metals including 300 grade stainless steel.
Care should be taken to separate these vapors from the combustion process. This may be done by installing a separated combustion sys­tem and/or wise location of the furnace with regard to exhausters or prevailing wind direction. Chlorine is heavier than air. This fact should be kept in mind when determining installation locations of heating equip­ment and building exhaust systems.

6. Support
Support horizontal runs every six feet (1829mm); do not rely on the heater or concentric adapter for support of either horizontal or vertical pipes.
7. Clearance
Clearance from the vent pipe to combustibles is 6" (152mm). Do not enclose the vent pipe.
Horizontal
• Mounting brackets for concentric adapter box (or box may be mounted flush, depending on building construction)
• T aper-type reducers as required (see requirements above)
Installation Instructions for Option CC6
1. Determine the location on the outside wall for the vent terminal
(Applies to all horizontal vent kits). In most applications, the terminal
would be on a level with the heater mounting height. Allow 1/4" per foot downward pitch toward the terminal for draining of condensation. The distance of the termination of the horizontal vent from adjacent public walkways, adjacent buildings, openable windows, and building openings must be in accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, must conform with National Fuel Gas Code. Local codes supersede all provisions in these instructions and in the National Fuel Gas Code. Mini­mum clearances for the horizontal vent terminal are as shown in the table on page 7.
Products of combustion can cause discoloration of some building finishes and deterioration of masonry materials. Applying a clear silicone sealant that is normally used to protect concrete driveways can protect masonry materials. If discoloration is an esthetic problem, relocate the vent or install a vertical vent.
WARNING: All vent terminals must be positioned or located away from fresh air intakes, doors and windows to preclude combustion products from entering occupied space. See Hazard Levels, page 2.

2. Prepare clearance hole through the outside wall for a 6" diameter pipe (Size 150 or 200) or an 8" diameter pipe (Size 250, 300, 350, or 400). Outside wall construction thickness should be between 1" (25mm) minimum and 30" (762mm) maximum. The larger diameter combustion air pipe serves as clearance for the exhaust pipe on non-com­bustible construction. A thimble may or may not be re­quired depending on wall construction and/or local codes.
3. Prepare the concentric adapter box. 3a) Determine whether field-supplied brackets are
required. The box must be positioned so that the
distance from the outside of the wall to the box is a minimum of 12" (305mm). Maximum distance is 60" (1524mm). If brackets are used, box should be angled slightly to allow for downward pitch of pipes. If used, attach brackets securely; do not leave any unsealed holes in the adapter box. If brackets are not used, when the box is installed, position it tight against the wall.
3b) Install the rubber seal and the vent pipe. Locate the
vent pipe opening (no collar) and place the rubber seal around and over the edge of the metal. Determine the length of the section of vent pipe by adding the requirements. On the heater side of all Sizes except CAUA 250, the vent pipe must extend no more than 6" (152mm) (length limit does not apply to Size 250 because the pipe diameter does not change); plus 6" (152mm) through the box; plus bracket length; plus the width of the wall; plus a minimum of 18" (457mm)

on the outside (if the inlet air pipe extends recom­mended 2" (51mm) beyond the wall). Lubricate the seal and pipe with liq­uid soap or a rub­ber lubricant. (In­stallation Tip:
Spray cooking oil works well as a lubricant for this task.) Being sure the pipe is in the proper flow direction, slide the end through the box and push it out through the rubber seal. Push evenly using caution not to dis­place the seal from its position on the edge of the hole. If the rubber seal moves, slide the pipe back slightly, re-position the seal, and slide the pipe through again. Position the vent pipe so that it will extend a minimum of 16" past the end of the combustion air pipe. See

Figure 5A. On all Sizes except 250, no more than 6" (152mm) of vent pipe should extend out the heater side. Any time the pipe is re-positioned, re-check the seal to be sure that it has not rolled. Adjust the pipe and seal until the pipe is the correct length on each side of the box and the seal is over the edge of the hole and tight to the entire circumference of the pipe.
3c) Attach the outside portion of the combustion air pipe to the box. Determine
the length by measuring the bracket length (if brackets are used), plus the wall thickness, plus 2" (51 mm). The inlet pipe should extend beyond the outside wall approximately 2" (51mm). Attach the inlet air pipe to the collar of the concentric adapter with sheetmetal screws being careful not to penetrate the vent pipe.
4. Attach the concentric adapter box to the wall. Insert the vent pipe and combustion air pipe through the wall. Push the concentric adapter box flush against the inside wall or attach to the wall with the field-supplied brackets. Caulk or flash inlet air pipe on the outside wall. Flashing is

6. Position the vent cap on the end of the vent pipe. Align the cap so that its baffle strips are positioned on the horizontal and vertical centerlines (See Figure 5C). Attach the exhaust cap to the vent pipe with sheetmetal screws.

7. Horizontal vent terminal/combustion air inlet Option CC6 is installed and ready for connection to the heater.
8. Connect the Concentric Adapter Box to the Heater - Use the pipe specified and joints required for type of pipe. If collar or opening at the heater or adapter are different diameters from the pipe (use only diameters allowed on page 6), make joint connection with field-supplied taper-type reducer or enlarger. A minimum of 12" (305 mm) of straight pipe is required at the venter outlet. Due to the high temperature, do not enclose the exhaust pipe or place pipe closer than 6" (152 mm) to combustible material. Installation of the horizontal vent and combustion air system on your separated­combustion unit is complete. Refer to Figure 5D and verify that all installation requirements are met. Continue to Paragraph 8.

Installation Instructions for Option CC2
1. Determine the location for the vent terminal on the roof, allowing room for the concentric adapter box inside. A thimble may or may not be required depending on building construction and/or local codes. Prepare a hole through the roof for the combustion air pipe (Sizes 150 and 200, pipe is 6"; Sizes 250-400, pipe is 8"). The air inlet pipe must be flashed or sealed to the roof. Flashing is to be supplied by the installer as required by roof construction and/or codes.
WARNING: All vent terminals must be positioned or located away from fresh air intakes, doors and windows to preclude combustion products from entering occupied space. See Hazard Levels, Page 2.
2. Prepare the concentric adapter box. 2a) Determine whether field-supplied brackets are required. If used, attach
brackets securely; do not leave any unsealed holes in the adapter box. If brackets are not used, when in­stalled, the box should be tight against the roof.
2b) Install the rubber seal and the
vent pipe. Locate the vent pipe open-
ing and place the rubber seal around and over the edge of the metal. Determine the length of the section of vent pipe by adding the requirements. On the heater side of all Sizes except CAUA 250, the vent pipe must ex­tend no more than 6" (152mm) (length limit does not apply to Size 250 be-
