4. Install the couplings, nipple and termination elbows as shown
and maintain spacing between vent and combustion air piping
as indicated in Figure 22, Figure 23 and Figure 24.
A metal shield is recommended 18" x 18" (457.2mm x 457.2mm)
min. or 18" (457.2mm) min. diameter around the vent termination
at the exterior wall to protect the house exterior materials from flue
)roduct or condensation (freezing) damage.

Using ExteriorRisers
1. Install elbows and pipe to form riser as shown in Figure 23.
2. Secure vent pipe to wall with galvanized strap or other rust
resistant material to restrain pipe from moving.
3. Insulate pipe with Armaflex or equivalent moisture resistant
closed cell foam insulation or Fiberglass insulation if boxed
in and sealed against moisture.
VerticalTermination
1. Figure 25 shows the proper installation and clearances for
vertical vent termination. The vertical roof termination
should be sealed with a plumbing roof boot or equivalent
flashing. The inlet of the intake pipe and end of the exhaust
vent must be terminated no less than 12" (304.8mm) above
the roof or snow accumulation level, and 12" (304.8mm)
away from a vertical wall or other protrusion.
2. If the vent system is installed in an existing chimney make
sure clearances shown in Figure25 are maintained.
Horizontal section before the termination elbow can be
extended on the inlet air to provide necessary clearance.

VentTerminationShielding
Under certain wind conditions some building materials may be
affected by flue products expelled in close proximity to
unprotected surfaces. Sealing or shielding of the exposed
surfaces with a corrosion resistant material (such as aluminum
sheeting) may be required to prevent staining or deterioration. The
protective material should be attached and sealed (if necessary) to
the building before attaching the vent terminal.
MultiVentTerminationClearances
When two (2) or more furnaces are vented near each other, each
furnace must be individually vented.
Two (2) vent terminations may be installed as shown in Figure 26,
Figure 27, Figure 28, and Figure 29, but the next vent
termination must be at least 36" (914.4mm) away from first two
terminations. It is important that vent terminations be made as
shown to avoid recirculation of flue gases.
