GTH Heater must be installed with the venting system
supplied, or with one of the optional venting kits available from

The CARIBE
®
GTH Heater employs a balanced flue/air venting duct
system and must conform to the following length requirements:
Maximum Length: 10 feet
Minimum Length: 2 feet - 6 inches
System
Requirements
The location, size, installation and termination of vents, as well as
the minimum required safe distances when penetrating
combustible walls, must comply with local codes and
recommendations of the local gas company. United States: Refer
to National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 - latest revision, (same as
NFPA Bulletin 54). Canada: Refer to Can 1-B149.1 and B149.2:
Installation Codes for Gas Burning Appliances.
Venting Codes
The balanced flue consists of a 3” diameter flue which is
concentrically positioned inside a 5” diameter vent pipe (see
below). The 5” diameter vent supplies outside air that is necessary
for combustion while the 3” diameter flue carries the products of
combustion from the heater, and exhausts them outside.
The balanced flue is applicable for both horizontal and vertical
venting arrangements. Vertical venting will require the optional roof
venting kit available from Roberts-Gordon.
