INSTALLATION SEQUENCE

For installations in the City of Los Angeles, California Category IV PVC Pipe
such as that manufactured by Brownline Pipe Company, must be used as
vent pipe material

 

CAUTION

Vent terminals supplied with the heater must be used.

NOTE:  BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION OF ANY VENT PIPE READ THE
VENT PIPE MANUFACTURER'S INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS.

1. After the points of termination have been determined, use the cover

plates as templates to mark the holes for the vent pipes to be inserted
through the wall.  BEWARE OF CONCEALED WIRING AND PIPING INSIDE
OF WALL.

2. If the vent terminals are being installed on the outside of a finished wall,

it may be easier to mark both the inside and outside wall. Align the holes
by drilling a hole through the center of the template from the inside
through to the outside. The template can now be positioned on the
outside wall using the drilled holes as a centering point for the template.

3. A) MASONRY SIDE WALLS

Chisel an opening approximately 1/2" (1.3 cm) larger than the marked
circle.

B) WOODEN SIDE WALLS
Drill a pilot hole approximately one quarter inch outside of the marked
circle. This pilot hole is used as a starting point for a saws-all or sabre
saw blade. Cut around the marked circle staying approximately one
quarter inch outside of the line. (This will allow the vent pipe to easily
slide through the opening. The resulting gap will be covered by the vent

terminal cover plates.) Repeat this step on the inside wall if necessary.

4. Cut a length of 3" PVC pipe about 3.5" (8.9 cm) longer than the wall

thickness at the opening.

5. Glue the intake vent terminal to the section of the pipe.

6. Slide the wall plate over the pipe to stop against intake vent terminal.

7. Place a bead of caulking (not supplied) around the gap between the

pipe and the wall. Place some of the caulking on the back of the plate to
hold it against the wall after installation.

8. If the vent pipe is installed up to the wall, with a coupling on the end

against the wall opening, the pipe with the vent terminal can be prepared
for gluing before inserting through the wall. Slide the pipe through the
wall and insert into coupling on the other side of the wall, making sure
that the vent terminal ends up pointed in the correct position
(Figure 10)

VERTICAL  VENT  TERMINAL INSTALLATION

IMPORTANT

WHEN TERMINATING THROUGH A ROOF, THE FOLLOWING SPECIFICATIONS
PERTAINING TO TERMINAL LOCATION MUST BE FOLLOWED.

1 . Proper support must be provided for all pipe protruding through

the roof.

2. The vertical roof terminations should be sealed with a plumbing roof

boot or equivalent flashing.
