INSTALLATION GUIDELINES
All exhaust vent piping must be
installed in compliance with Part 7,
Venting of Equipment, of the latest
edition of the National Fuel Gas
Code NFPA 54/ANSI A223.1, or
CAN/CGA-B149.1 and .2, local
codes or ordinances and these
"
instructions.
1. Vertical piping is preferred.
2.
All horizontal piping must
slope
upward a minimum of 1/4"
per foot
of run.
3.
Support all horizontal runs at
least
every three feet. No sags
or dips are permitted.
4. Use medium or long radius
sweep elbows.
5.
All piping between the furnace
and outside wall or roof is 2"
or 3"
as specified in Table 16.
A. When using 3" pipe it must
be reduced to 2" before
penetrating the outside wall
or roof.
B. Use a maximum of 18" of 2"
pipe with 3" pipe systems
before penetrating the wall
or roof.
~
6. IMPORTANT:DO NOT
COMMON VENT WITH ANY
OTHER APPLIANCE. DO NOT
INSTALL PIPING IN THE SAME
CHASE OR CHIMNEY WITH
A
METAL OR HIGH TEMPERA-
TURE PLASTIC PIPE FROM
ANOTHER GAS OR FUEL
BURNING APPLIANCE.
7. All vent runs through uncon-
ditioned spaces where below
freezing temperatures are
expected should be insulated
with 1" thick medium density foil
faced fiber glass, or equivalent
Rubatexl Armaflex insulation.
8. The minimum pipe length is
5 feet.
Size the exhaust pipe as specified in
Table 17. This table lists the
maximum allowable length in feet of
the exhaust pipe that may be used
(shaded area) for all furnace inputs
as related to the number of elbows
required and the termination.
NOTE:Extend the exhaust a
minimum of 18" vertically above the
cabinet before turning the vent.
""
Vertical through-the-roof installations
do not require a vent termination.
Use 2" PVC pipe extending a
minimum of 12" above the antici-
pated level of snow accumulation.
If using 3" vent pipe from furnace
to roof, reduce to 2" pipe before
penetrating the roof. Use no more
than a maximum of 18" of 2" pipe
under the roof.
See Figure 32.
