If concentric vent termination is being used, refer to
Figure 10
for proper setup.

Combustion Air/Vent Pipe Requirements
Boiler requires dedicated direct vent system. Direct vent
system, all air for combustion is taken directly from outside
atmosphere, and all fl ue products are discharged to outside
atmosphere.
Combustion air and vent pipe connections must terminate
together in same atmospheric pressure zone, either
through roof or sidewall (roof termination preferred). See
Figures 8 and 9
for required clearances.

• Avoid locations where
snow may drift and block
vent and combustion air.
• Ice or snow may cause
boiler to shut down if
vent or combustion air
becomes obstructed.
