INSTALLATION PLANNING
There are two basic types of direct-vent

• Vertical Termination
It is important to select the proper length
of vent pipe for the type of termination you
choose. It is also important to note the wall
thickness.
For Horizontal Termination:
Select the
amount of vertical rise desired. The horizontal
run of venting must have 1/4" rise for every
12" of run towards the termination.
WARNING: Never run the
vent pipe downward as this may
cause excessive temperatures
which could cause a fire.
You may use up to two 90° elbows on any
single horizontal run of vent pipe in this
configuration. See
