Standard Vertical-roof kit (Exhaust & intake outside) 

 

Figure 9.8 (vertical pipe Φ 3.1 / Φ 4.9 in) 

 
This kit allows vertical termination of the flue pipe through the roof. The kit is 1.2 min 
length. Extension pieces (Co--axial) are also available which allows the flue system to be 
extended to a total overall maximum permissible length. 
Optional 45° and 90° elbows can be used to offset the flue route. 
Each additional elbow reduces the overall acceptable length of the flue system as follows: 
45° reduce length by 1.6 ft. 
90° reduce length by 3.2 ft. 

 

Installation: 

 

Drill hole through the outside roof. 

 

Cut the pipe as necessary. 

 

Slide the intake and exhaust pipes through the hole. 

 

Slide one rubber wall trim piece on the pipe from inside and one from outside. 

 

Connect exhaust (inner) pipe to concentric elbow. 

 

Connect intake (outer) pipe to concentric elbow. 

 

Secure elbow to boiler using gasket and four screws provided. 

 

Secure end cap on the intake pipe outside the house.
