TOP EXIT ENCLOSURE
The appliance requires a minimum enclosure height of 59 1/2" (151.1cm). For temperature requirements, the
enclosure space around and above the appliance must be left unobstructed.
NOTE: The vent shield is telescopic and must be adjusted to shield the full depth of the combustible
wall penetration.
* See "MINIMUM FRAMING DIMENSION" section for details on reducing vent pipe top clearances.
These parameters also apply to the illustrations found in the "MINIMUM ENCLOSURE
CLEARANCES" section.
