Figure 2-16 Air Inlet Cap for Vertical Direct Vent
System
Roof Top Air Inlet Cap for Vertical Direct
Vent
The air inlet cap for the vertical through-roof direct vent
system is assembled from components purchased locally.
The air inlet cap consist of two 90° ells installed at the
point of termination for the air inlet pipe. The first 90° ell
is installed on the roof top at the highest vertical point of
the air inlet pipe and turned horizontal, the second 90° ell is
installed on the horizontal outlet of the first ell and turned
down. A 90° ell and a 90° street ell may be used to make
this assembly. If a straight piece of pipe is used between
the two ells, it should not exceed 6" (51 mm) in length.
The termination ell on the air inlet must be located a
minimum of 12" (30 cm) above the roof or above normal
levels of snow accumulation. The point of termination for
the air inlet must be 24" (61 cm) lower than the point of flue
gas termination if it is located within 10’ (3.05 m) of the
flue outlet. Use care to ensure that the 90° ell assembly is
properly installed on the air inlet pipe. Incorrect installation
and/or location of the air inlet cap can allow the discharge of
flue products to be drawn into the combustion process on
the heater. This can result in incomplete combustion and
potentially hazardous levels of carbon monoxide in the flue
products. This will cause operational problems with the
heater and possible spillage of flue products which can cause
personal injury, death or property damage
A vertical vent cap as specified by the vent material
manufacturer MUST be used to vent the flue products to the
outdoors. The vent cap for the flue products is purchased
locally. The point of discharge for the flue products in a
vertical direct vent system must terminate a minimum of 24"
(61 cm) above the point where the air inlet is located if the
air inlet is within a 10’ (3.05 m) radius of the flue discharge.
Incorrect installation and/or location of the vent cap for
flue products can allow the discharge of flue products to be
drawn into the combustion process on the heater. This can
result in incomplete combustion and potentially hazardous
levels of carbon monoxide in the flue products. This will
cause operational problems with the heater and possible
spillage of flue products which can cause personal injury,
death or property damage
