The inlet air screens provided in the installation instruction packet
are available for the installer to use in the inlet of the combustion air
pipe to prevent animals from building nests in the combustion air
pipe. Installation of screens, while strongly recommended, is not
required and will not affect performance of the unit.
Direct vent
installations require both a combustion air intake and a
vent/flue pipe. The pipes may be run horizontally and exit through
the side of the building or run vertically and exit through the roof of
the building. The pipes may be run through an existing
unused
chimney; however, they must extend a minimum of 12 inches above
the top of the chimney. The space between the pipes and the chim-
ney must be closed with a weather tight, corrosion resistant flash-
ing. Both the combustion air intake and a vent/flue pipe termina-
tions must be in the same atmospheric pressure zone. Refer to
Section IX, Vent/Flue and Combustion Air Pipe - Termination Loca-
tions or Concentric Vent Termination
for specific details on termina-
tion construction. For details concerning connection of pipes to the
furnace, refer to the
Section IX, Vent/Flue Pipe and Combustion
Pipe - Standard Furnace Connections or Alternate Furnace Con-
nections.

Refer to the following table for applicable length, elbows, and pipe
diameter for construction of the vent/flue and combustion air intake
pipe systems of a direct vent (dual pipe) installation. The number of
elbows tabulated represents the number of elbows and/or tees in
each (Vent/Flue & Combustion Air Intake) pipe. Elbows and/or tees
used in the terminations must be included when determining the
number of elbows in the piping systems.
If the combustion air intake pipe is to be installed above a finished
ceiling or other area where dripping of condensate will be objection-
able, insulation of the combustion air pipe may be required. Use
1/2” thick closed cell foam insulation such as Armaflex™ or Insul-
tube™ where required.

1) Elbows and/or tees used in terminations must be included when deter-
mining quantity of allowable elbows in the system.
2) Number of elbows tabulated are for each (Vent/Flue & Combustion Air
Intake) pipe.
3) Minimum requirements for each Vent/Flue & Combustion Air Intake pipe
is five (5) feet in length and one elbow/tee.
4) 3” diameter pipe can be used in place of 2” diameter pipe.
5) Increased Clearance Configurations using (2) 45 deg. Long Sweep el-
bows should be considered equivalent to one 90 deg. elbow.
