When using 3 in. Concentric
Termination, 3 in. (75 mm) pipe and 2 in.
× 3 in. Increaser couplings are required.
Increaser couplings need to be used just
prior to 3 in. Concentric Termination.
** The length of the pipe between the
Increaser couplings and the
Exhaust and Intake Flue of the
Water Heater, and the concentric
termination vent pipe connections
should be up to 6 in. (152 mm).
For Vertical PVC Concentric Termination - PVC/CPVC Material Only
• The concentric termination may be shortened, but not lengthened from its original factory supplied length.
• 2 in. (50 mm) or 3 in. (75 mm) PVC or CPVC pipe may be used with the concentric termination.
Maintain the same vent pipe diameter from the Water Heater flue to the termination.
• Use a condensation drain if necessary.
• In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts a carbon monoxide detector is required for all side wall horizontally
vented gas fuel equipment. Refer to the page 4 for more detail information.
