The concentric termination may be shortened,
but not lengthened from its original factory
supplied length.
Terminate at least 12" (300mm) above grade or
above snow line.
For vertical installation, terminate at least 7' (2.1m)
above a public walkway, 6' (1.8m) from the combustion
air intake of any appliance, and 3' (0.9m) from any
other building opening, gas utility meter, service
regulator etc.
Slope the horizontal vent 1/4" upwards for every
12" (300mm).
Use a condensation drain if necessary.
In the Commonwealth of Massachusetts a carbon
monoxide detector is required for all side wall
horizontally vented gas fuel equipment.
Please refer to Technical Bulletin TB 010606 for full
installation instructions.

3" (75mm) or 4" (100mm) PVC or CPVC pipe
may be used with the concentric termination.

When using 4" (100mm) pipe, it will be necessary to
use 4" (100mm) x 3" (75mm) reducing couplings and
a short section of 3" (75mm) pipe to connect to the
Exhaust and Intake Flue of Water Heater.
Use maximum 6" (150mm) section of pipe to make
the connection between the reducing couplings and
the Exhaust and Intake Flue of the Water Heater.
