8.1 Venting
This heater is considered a Category III vented
appliance. The Serial plate on the heater will indicate
vent Category and this manual will describe the
installation requirements for vent Category.
This heater must be vented in accordance with the
rules contained in this manual and with the following
national codes and any state, provincial or local
codes which may apply:
United States: Refer to National Fuel Gas Code
NFPA 54/ANSI Z223.1 - latest revision.
Canada:
Refer to Natural Gas and Propane
Installation Code CSA B149.1 - latest revision.
Exhaust end of heater will accept a 4'' (10 cm) vent
pipe using the vent adapter (P/N 90502701). To
prevent leakage of condensation, install the vent
adapter with the seam on top and seal the joint using
a high temperature silicone sealant.
Any portion of vent pipe passing through a
combustible wall must have an approved thimble
to conform with the above listed codes.
Vent pipe must be sloped downward away from the
heater 1/2'' (1 cm) for every 20' (6 m).
The heater may be individually vented or common
vented. When venting horizontally, a maximum of
two heaters can be commonly vented.
See Page 39,
Section 8.10 . When venting vertically, a maximum of
four heaters can be commonly vented. See Page 46,
Section 8.10 .
The heater may also be installed unvented in certain
circumstances according to building ventilation
codes. Refer to the above codes
and Page 42,
Section 8.2 for further information. Unvented
operation also requires compliance with the
clearances to combustibles given
on Page 9, Figure
12 .
The bottom of the vent or air intake terminal shall not
be located less than 1' (0.3 m) above grade level.
The vent shall not terminate less than 7' (2.1 m)
above grade where located adjacent to public
walkways.
Vent terminal must be installed at a height sufficient
to prevent blockage by snow, and building materials
protected from degradation by flue gases.
Secure all joints with #8 x 3/8 sheet metal screws.
Seal all joints with high temperature silicone sealant.
Vent terminal must be beyond any combustible
overhang.
8.1.1 United States Requirements
Vent must terminate at least 3' (0.9 m) above any
forced air inlet located within 10' (3.1 m).
Vent must terminate at least 4' (1.2 m) below, 4'
