If there is a difference between the vent and combustion air
pipes, count the pipe with the most fittings. Elbows and/or
tees used in the terminations must be included when determin-
ing the number of elbows in the piping systems.
If the combustion air intake pipe is to be installed above a fin-
ished ceiling or other area where dripping of condensate will be
objectionable, insulation of the combustion air pipe may be re-
quired. Use 1/2” thick closed cell foam insulation such as
Armaflex™ or Insultube™ where required.

If more than one direct vent furnace is to be installed verti-
cally through a common roof top, maintain the same mini-
mum clearances between the exhaust vent and air intake
terminations of adjacent units as with the exhaust vent and
air intake terminations of a single unit.
If more than one direct vent furnace is to be installed horizon-
tally through a common side wall, maintain the clearances as
in the following figure. Always terminate all exhaust vent outlets
at the same elevation and always terminate all air intakes at the
same elevation.
