5.  Secure assembly to roof structure as shown in Figure E using 

field supplied metal strapping or equivalent support material.

note: ensure termination height is above the roof surface or 

anticipated snow level (1 ft. in U.S.A. or 1-1/2 ft. in Canada) as

 

shown in figure c.

6.  Install  rain  cap  and  small  diameter  pipe  assembly  in 

roof  penetration  assembly,  Ensure  small  diameter  pipe

7.  Cement  water  heater  combustion  air  intake  and  vent  pipes  to 

 

concentric  vent  termination  assembly.  See  Figure  E  for 

 

proper pipe attachment.

8.  Operate heater through 1 heat cycle to ensure combustion air 

and vent pipes are properly connected to concentric vent termination 

connections.

note:  all  vent  terminations  must  be  the  same  height  when 

installing multiple unit venting. If assembly is too short to meet 

height requirement, the 2 pipes supplied in the kit may be replaced 

by using same diameter, field supplied SDR-26 PVC (D2241) pipe.  

Do not extend the 21-1/8” dimension outer pipe to be more than 

 

60 inches, see Figure B.

  

cautIon

Do  not  use  field-supplied  couplings  to  extend  pipes.  Airflow 

restriction will occur and the heater pressure switch may cause 

intermittent operation.

PROCEDURE 2 SIDE WALL TERMINATION, see Figure F.

fIGure f.

1.  Determine best location for termination kit.

NOTE:  Consideration  for  the  following  should  be  used  when 

determining an appropriate location for the termination kit:

  •  Termination  kit  positioned  where  the  vent  vapors  will 

 

    n o t   d a m a g e   p l a n t s / s h r u b s   o r   a i r   c o n d i t i o n i n g 

 

    equipment. 

 

  •  Termination  kit  positioned  so  it  will  not  be  affected  by 

 

    wind  eddy  that  may  allow  recirculation  of  combustion 

 

    products, or airborne leaves, or light snow.

  •  Termination  kit  positioned  where  it  will  not  get  damaged 

 

    or  be  subjected  to  foreign  objects,  such  as  stones, 

 

    balls, etc. 

 

  •  Termination  kit  positioned  where  the  vent  vapors  will 

 

    not be objectionable. 

   

NOTE: See the venting information (pages 16-20) in this

 

    manual for additional vent location requirements.

2.  Cut 1 hole (5 in. diameter)

3.  Partially  assemble  concentric  vent  termination  kit.  

 

  a)  Cement  the  Y  concentric  fitting  to  larger  diameter 

 

kit pipe, see Figure A.

  b)  Cement  the  rain  cap  to  the  smaller  diameter  kit 

 

pipe, see Figure A.

note: Instead of cementing the smaller pipe to the rain cap, a 

field-supplied stainless steel screw may be used to secure the 

2 components together when field disassembly is desired for 

cleaning, see figure d.

  

warnInG

when using alternate screw assembly method, drill clearance 

hole in rain cap and pilot hole in vent pipe for screw being 

used.    failure  to  drill  adequate  holes  may  cause  cracking 

of  pvc  components,  allowing  combustion  products  to  be 

recirculated.    failure  to  follow  this  warning  could  result  in 

personal injury or death.

  

warnInG

do  not  operate  the  heater  with  rain  cap  removed  or 

recirculation of combustion products may occur.  water may 

also collect inside larger combustion-air pipe and flow to the 

burner enclosure.  failure to follow this warning could result 

in  product  damage  or  improper  operation,  personal  injury 

or death.

4.  Install  Y  concentric  fitting  and  pipe  assembly  through 

 

  structure’s hole.

note: do not allow insulation or other materials to accumulate 
inside pipe assembly when installing through hole. 

5.  Install  rain  cap  and  small  diameter  pipe  assembly  in

 

Y  concentric  fitting  and  large  pipe  assembly.    Ensure

 

small  diameter  pipe  is  bottomed  and  cemented  in  Y

 

concentric fitting.

6.  Secure assembly to structure as shown in Figure G using field-

supplied metal strapping or equivalent support material.

 

note: ensure termination location clearance dimensions are as 

shown in the diagrams found in Figure 15 A through D.  When 

extending the length of the 4” pipe, the added length beyond 

21-1/8” must be deducted from the maximum equivalent feet of 

vent pipe.

note:  If  assembly  needs  to  be  extended  to  allow  side 

wall  thickness  requirement,  the  2  pipes  supplied  in 

the  kit  may  be  replaced  by  using  same  diameter,  field-

supplied  SDR-26  PVC  (D2241)  pipe.  Do  not  extend 

 

21 1/8” dimension more than 60 in. (See Figure B.)

  

cautIon

Do  not  use  field-supplied  couplings  to  extend  pipes. Airflow 

restriction will occur and the heater pressure switch may cause 

intermittent operation. 

7.  Cement  heater  combustion-air  and  vent  pipes  to  concentric 

vent  termination  assembly.    See  Figure  G  for  proper  pipe 

attachment.
