downwards for every 12" (300mm) towards 
the termination.

•  The integrated condensate collector must be 

used for vertical runs in excess of 3' (0.9m).

Drain condensate

 according to

local codes.

•  Connect the vent pipe firmly so that it will pre

-

vent exhaust gases from leaking.

•  Steam or condensed water may drip out of the  

vent terminal. Dispose of this condensed water 

according to local codes and in order to prevent 

injury or property damage.

•  If this product will be installed in an area where 

snow  is  known  to  accumulate,protect  the  vent 

termination from blockage by snow drifts or 
damage from snow falling off of roofs.

•  Support  the  vent  pipe  with  hangers  at  a  mini

-

mum of every 7' (2.1m).

•  Make the vertical pipe as short as possible.

•  Do not common vent or connect more than 

one appliance to this venting system.

•  Terminate at least 12" (300mm) above grade or 

snow line.

•  Terminate  at  least  7'  (2.1m)  above  a  public 

walkway.

•  Exceeding the maximum vent length is danger-

ous and may result in bad combustion.

•  Install the vent terminal so that all exhaust is di-

rected to and all intake air is taken from outdoors.

•  Do not store hazardous or flammable substanc

-

es near the vent terminal.

• 

Slope  the  vent  pipe  1/4"  (6mm)  for  every  12" 

(300mm) either towards the horizontal termination 
or towards the integrated condensate collector.

  When using the condensate collector, create a 

trap in the drain line and pre-charge it with wa

-

ter to prevent exhaust gas leakage.

•  Maintain the same vent pipe diameter all the 

way to the end.

•  Noritz Concentric vent pipe is approved for use 

on this appliance with zero clearance to com

-

bustibles.

•  Use only Noritz specified venting products.
