A. At least 12 inches above finished grade, or at least 12 inches above the normally

expected snow accumulation level in geographical areas where snow accumulates.

B. 4 feet away from and not above any doors or windows.
C. At least 3 feet above any forced air inlet located within 6 feet horizontally.
D. At least 6 feet from a combustion air intake of another appliance.
E. At least 4 feet horizontally from electric meters, gas meters, regulators and relief equipment.
F. Do not locate the vent termination in traffic areas like walkways, unless it is at least 7 feet

above finished grade.

G. Do not locate the vent termination too close to shrubbery as flue products may stunt or kill them.
H. Some building materials may be affected by flue products expelled near unprotected

surfaces.  Sealing or shielding of exposed surfaces with a corrosion resistant material
(such as aluminum sheet) may be required to prevent staining or deterioration.

I. When installing vent cap secure it to a noncombustible wall or a combustible wall thimble.

Refer to vent pipe manufacturers instructions.

J. See the latest revision of  the NFGC, ANSI Z223.1. When installed in Canada: The latest

revision of the CAN/CSA - B149 Natural Gas and Propane Installtion Code.

WARNING:

DO NOT PLACE CONDENSATE DRAIN WHERE FREEZING

MAY OCCUR.

CONDENSATE DRAINS ARE REQUIRED IN THE VENT WHEN USING THE

CONDENSATE TEE. THE CONDENSATE DRAIN FITTING MUST BE PLUMBED TO A
SANITARY DRAIN FOR LIQUID CONDENSATE DISPOSAL.

Refer to figure 9 below for the following instructions.
Condensate drain is plumbed with 3/8" (1 cm) inside diameter flexible tubing.  Refer to

"GENERAL INSTRUCTION FOR SEASONAL STARTUP AND MAINTENANCE", in the
Installation Manual for maintenance
recommendations and schedule.

1.  

Flexible Tubing Condensate Drain.

In the vent, and close to the appliance, install
a tee with a run outlet.  Install condensate
drain in the down outlet with high temperature
adhesive. Connect the condensate drain
outlet to commercially available flexible tubing
(minimum length 40").  Below the drain
outlet, make a 6" diameter loop in 3/8" ID
tubing, or a 9" diameter loop in 5/8" ID tubing.
Secure the loop with a plastic cable tie.  Run
the other end of the flexible tubing to a
sanitary drain. (Use a condensate pump if
necessary)
