VENTING LENGTHS AND COMPONENTS FOR DIRECT VENT INSTALLATIONS
7.2C
THIS APPLIANCE USES A 5” (127mm) EXHAUST / 8” (203.2mm) AIR INTAKE VENT PIPE SYSTEM.
Refer to the section applicable to your installation.
For safe and proper operation of the appliance follow the venting instruction exactly. Deviation from the
minimum vertical vent length can create diffi culty in burner start-up and/or carboning. Under extreme vent
confi gurations, allow several minutes (5-15) for the fl ame to stabilize after ignition. Provide a means for
visually checking the vent connection to the appliance after the appliance is installed. Use a fi restop, vent
pipe shield or attic insulation shield when penetrating interior walls, fl oor or ceiling.
NOTE: If for any reason the vent air intake system is disassembled; reinstall per the instructions
provided for the initial installation.
NOTE: This appliance must be installed with a continuous connection of exhaust and air intake vent
pipes. Utilizing alternate constructions such as a chimney as part of the vent system is not permitted.

WARNING
RISK OF FIRE, MAINTAIN SPECIFIED AIR SPACE CLEARANCES TO VENT PIPE AND APPLIANCE.
IF VENTING IS INCLUDED WITH SPACERS THE VENT SYSTEM MUST BE SUPPORTED EVERY 3FT
(0.9m) FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. USE WOLF STEEL LTD. SUPPORT RING
ASSEMBLY W010-0067 OR EQUIVALENT NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRAPPING TO MAINTAIN THE MINI-
MUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES FOR BOTH VERTICAL AND HORIZONTAL RUNS. SPACERS
ARE ATTACHED TO THE INNER PIPE AT PREDETERMINED INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN AN EVEN AIR
GAP TO THE OUTER PIPE. THIS GAP IS REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION. A SPACER IS REQUIRED
AT THE START, MIDDLE AND END OF EACH ELBOW TO ENSURE THIS GAP IS MAINTAINED. THESE
SPACERS MUST NOT BE REMOVED.
