Vent Pipe Installation
• Make sure vent pipe is gas tight and will not
leak. Use heat resistant silicon sealant wher-
ever necessary.
• Do not place any dangerous objects at the end
of the exhaust vent.
• Steam (smoke) or water drops may come out
from the end of the exhaust pipe. Select the
location for the end of the vent so that steam is
not visible, and the vent is not wet with drip-
ping water.
• If snow is expected to accumulate, take care
that the end of the pipe is not covered with
snow or hit by falling lumps of snow.
• Use a maximum of 1m of straight vertical pipe
before the first elbow.
• Minimum flue length
1 elbow (90 degree) + Flue Terminal.
• Consult the vent pipe manufacturer's install-
ation instructions for chimney connections.
• Do not common vent or connect more than
one appliance to this venting system.
Vent Piping
