Vertical Inline Power Vent Terminations
Rigid Pipe
Note:
A top clearance of 3"(76mm) and side
bottom clearance of 2" (51mm) must
be maintained, except when passing
through a wall or ceiling, or at the
termination where a firestop or wall
thimble reduces the required clearance
to 1-1/2" (38mm). We recommend
framing a 11"(279mm) x 11"(279mm)
(inside dimensions) hole to give
structural rigidity for mounting the
termination.
1)
Maintain the 1-1/2" (38mm)
clearances (air spaces)
to combustibles when
passing through ceilings,
walls, roofs, enclosures,
attic rafters, or other
n e a r by c o m b u s t i b l e
surfaces, ensuring a
firestop or wall thimble is
used as noted above. Do
not pack air spaces with
insulation. Check the
"Venting Arrangement
- Vertical Termination"
section for the maximum
vertical rise of the venting
system and the maximum
horizontal offset.
2)
Set the gas appliance in its the
desired location. Drop a plumb bob from the
ceiling to the appliance flue exit and mark where
the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small
hole at this point. Next, drop a plumb bob from
the roof to the hole drilled in the ceiling and mark
where the vent will penetrate the roof. Determine
whether ceiling joists,
roof rafters, or other
framing will obstruct
the venting system. You
may wish to relocate the
appliance or to offset as
shown in Diagram 2
to avoid cutting load
bearing members.
3)
A Firestop spacer must
be installed in the floor
or ceiling of every level.

Continue to assemble pipe lengths. Support
the inline power vent to avoid excessive stress
on the pipe and elbows. The inline power vent
can be screwed onto existing studs for support.
Note: If an offset is needed in the attic, it is
important to support the vent pipe at
every 3 feet (0.9 meter) to avoid excessive
stress on the elbows and possible
separation. Wall straps are available for
this purpose (Diagram 2).
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofline
due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue
to add pipe sections through the flashing until
the height of the vent cap meets the minimum
height requirements specified in Diagram 5 or
local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the
vertical height must be increased.
Diagram 3
Note:
For best results and optimum performance with
each approved venting system, “Mill-Pac” seal-
ant is strongly recommended at every inner pipe
connection. Failure to use Mill-Pac may result
in drafting or performance issues not covered
under warranty.
4)
Assemble the desired pipes and elbows. Ensure
all pipes and elbow connections are twist-locked
and sealed.
5)
Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small hole
drilled in Step 2. The hole should be sized to
meet the minimum requirement of 1-1/2"(38mm)
clearance to combustibles. Slip the flashing under
the shingles (shingles should overlap half the
flashing) as per Diagram 4.
Offset Chart
A poor draft, or down drafting, can result from high
wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof
lines. In these cases, increasing the vent height
may solve the problem.
7)
Ensure vent is vertical and secure the base of
the flashing to the roof with roofing rails. Slide
the storm collar over the pipe section and seal
with a mastic.
8)
Install and twist-lock the vertical termination cap.
Note: Any closets or storage spaces that
the vent passes through must be
enclosed.

A minimum of 4 feet is required between the
unit and the inline power vent. Determine the
overall height of the chimney from the top
side of the inline power vent to the underside
of the flashing.
