It is recommended that the flashing be installed by a roofer or competent
professional prior to installing the concentric vent. The terminations can
be installed on a flat or pitched roof.
Concentric Vent
Single or multiple concentric vent must be installed as shown in
.
Maintain the required separation distance between vents or pairs of vents
.
NOTE:
Follow the instructions of the vent terminal manufacturer. These
instructions are provided as a reference, only.
Cut one 4-in. (102 mm) diameter hole for 2-in. (50 mm ND) kit, or one
5-in. (127 mm) diameter hole for 3-in. (80 mm ND) kit in the desired
location.
Loosely assemble concentric vent/combustion air termination
components together using instructions in kit.
Slide assembled kit with rain shield
REMOVED
through hole in wall or
roof flashing.
NOTE:
Do not allow insulation or other materials to accumulate inside
of pipe assembly when installing it through hole.
Disassemble loose pipe fittings. Clean and cement using same
procedures as used for system piping.
DO NOT CEMENT
POLYPROPYLENE FITTINGS.
Two-Pipe and Single-Pipe Terminations
Single and two pipe vent must be installed as shown in
and
. Maintain the required separation distance between vents or pairs
of vents as shown in
and all clearance shown in
Cut the required number of holes in the roof or sidewall for vent and
(when used) combustion air pipes. Sidewall holes for two-pipe vent
terminations should be side-by-side, allowing space between the pipes
for the elbows to fit on the pipes.
Holes in the roof for direct-vent two-pipe terminations should be spaced
no more than 18 in. (457 mm) apart to help avoid vent gas recirculation
into combustion air intake.
Termination elbows will be installed after the vent and (if used)
combustion air pipe is installed.
Sidewall Terminations
Concentric Vent
NOTE:
Follow the instructions of the vent terminal manufacturer. These
instructions are provided as a reference only.
Determine an appropriate location for termination kit using the
guidelines provided in section “Locating The Vent Termination” in
this instruction.
1. Cut one 4-in. diameter hole for 2-in. kit, or one 5-in. diameter hole
for 3-in. kit.
2. Loosely assemble concentric vent/combustion air termination
components together using instructions in kit.
3. Slide assembled kit with rain shield REMOVED through hole.
NOTE:
Do not allow insulation or other materials to accumulate inside
of pipe assembly when installing it through hole.
4. Locate assembly through sidewall with rain shield positioned no
more than 1-in. (25 mm) from wall as shown in
.
5. Disassemble loose pipe fittings. Clean and cement using same
procedures as used for system piping.
DO NOT CEMENT
POLYPROPYLENE FITTINGS.
2-Pipe and 1-Pipe Vent Termination
NOTE:
Follow the instructions of the vent terminal manufacturer. These
instructions are provided as a reference, only.
Determine an appropriate location for termination kit using the
guidelines provided in section “Locating The Vent Termination” in
this instruction.
1. Cut two holes, one for each pipe, of appropriate size for pipe size
being used.
2. Loosely install elbow in bracket (if used) and place assembly on
combustion-air pipe.
3. Install bracket as shown in
.
NOTE:
For applications using vent pipe option indicated by dashed
and
, rotate vent elbow 90
_
from position.
4. Disassemble loose pipe fittings. Clean and cement using same
procedures as used for system piping.
DO NOT CEMENT
POLYPROPYLENE FITTINGS.
(Direct Vent / 2-Pipe System ONLY)
When two or more furnaces are vented near each other, two vent
terminations may be installed as shown in
, but next vent
termination, or pair of vent terminations, must be at least 36 in. (914
mm) away from the first two terminations. It is important that vent
terminations be made as shown in
to avoid recirculation of vent
gases.
Inducer Outlet Restrictor
To improve efficiency and operation of 60K or 100K BTUH input
models on very short vent systems, an inducer outlet restrictor is
required to be installed on the outlet of the inducer assembly. The outlet
restrictor is shown in the footnote of
Vent Length. See
for usage, part numbers and sourcing of 60K
and 100K inducer outlet restrictors.
To determine if the outlet restrictor is required, see
WARNING
!
CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal injury or death.
DO NOT
use cement to join polypropylene venting systems. Follow
the polypropylene venting system manufacturer’s instructions for
installing polypropylene venting systems.
NOTICE
!
RECOMMENDED SUPPORT FOR VENT
TERMINATIONS
It is recommended that rooftop vent terminations in excess of 36 inches
(1 M) in vertical length be supported by
EITHER
the Direct Vent
Termination Kit shown in
or by field-supplied brackets or
supports fastened to the structure.
NOTICE
!
RECOMMENDED SUPPORT FOR VENT
TERMINATIONS
It is recommended that sidewall vent terminations in excess of 24
inches (0.6 M) in vertical length be supported by
EITHER
the Direct
Vent Termination Kit shown in
or supports fastened to the structure.
