Air intake/vent connections
1.
Combustion Air Intake Connector
(FIG. 3-6) - Used to
provide combustion air directly to the unit from outdoors.
A fitting is provided on the units for final connection.
Combustion air piping must be supported per guidelines
listed in the National Mechanical Code, Section 305, Table
305.4 or as local codes dictate.
2.
Vent Connector
(FIG.'s 3-7 thru 3-10) - Used to provide a
passageway for conveying combustion gases to the
outside. A transition fitting is provided on the unit for
final connection. Vent piping must be supported per the
National Building Code, Section 305, Table 305.4 or as

The Knight Wall Hung Fire Tube boiler vent and air piping can
be installed through the roof or through a sidewall. Follow the
procedures in this manual for the method chosen. Refer to the
information in this manual to determine acceptable vent and
air piping length.
You may use any of the vent/air piping methods covered in this
manual. Do not attempt to install the Knight Wall Hung Fire
Tube boiler using any other means.
You must also install air piping from outside to the boiler
air intake adapter unless following the Optional Room Air
instructions on page 19 of this manual. The resultant installation
is direct vent (sealed combustion).
WARNING
DO NOT mix components from different
systems. The vent system could fail,
causing leakage of flue products into the
living space. Mixing of venting materials
will void the warranty and certification of
the appliance.
WARNING
Do not connect any other appliance to
the vent pipe or multiple boilers to a
common vent pipe. Failure to comply
could result in severe personal injury,
death, or substantial property damage.
Improper installation of venting systems
may result in injury or death.
