VENT PIPE INSTALLATION
• Use only designated vent terminal (sold separately).
• Install correctly in accordance with the installation manual attached.
• Select the correct switch position depending on the length of the vent pipe.
• Make sure that the proper distance, within the limitations, is determined between the unit and the
termination of the vent pipe.
• Make sure the terminal of the vent pipe sticks out outdoors.
• Prevent the exhaust gas from flowing back indoors through the gap between the termination and
the wall where the vent pipe penetrates.
• Make sure snow drift will not suffocate the vent terminal when it has been piled or fallen.
• Do not place hazardous materials near the end of the vent termination.
• Make sure to install the vent terminal at downward slope to prevent rain from entering inside.
• Some vapor or condensation may be generated from the vent terminal.
• Place the vent terminal where it is not affected by water splashing or falling off the roof eaves.
• A vent system that exits the structure through a sidewall shall terminate not less than 12"
(30.5cm) above the ground.
Check local codes and ordinances which may require higher clearances.
• The termination of the vent system shall not be located in public traffic areas, such as walkways,
unless the vent system is at least 7' (2.1m) above the ground.
• Terminate the system 6' (1.8m) from the combustion air intake of any appliance.
• Place the system at least 3' (0.9m) away from any other building opening, gas utility meter,
service regulator or the like, or less distance if specified in the appliance's instructions.
And also ensure that positioning of the vent system complies with the requirements of
AS5601/AG601 Clause 5.13.6.2/Fig. 5.3
