Vent Pipe Installation
Determining the length of the vent pipe extension is
dependent upon which wall sleeve accessory is installed
at the job site for each particular installation.

,
Access vent pipe at the side of the unit that will face
the outdoors.
The vent pipe and vent pipe extension is located to
the right of the outdoor fan (see Figure 3).

3. Remove the 5/16" screw used to mount the vent pipe
assembly to the mounting bracket. Keep this screw.
, Five holes have been drilled into the vent extension
(see Figure 4). Four of those holes are provided so
that the vent can be extended the necessary length
required for the installation. The wall sleeve that is
installed determines which of these clearance holes
should be used. Using Table 2 and Figure 4, deter-
mine which clearance hole should be used to position
the vent extension properly. Slide the vent extension
outward and line up the correct clearance hole on the
vent extension with the hole in the vent pipe and the
hole in the mounting bracket.
,
Re-install the 5/16" screw that was removed in Step 3.
Thread the screw first through the clearance hole in
the mounting bracket, the proper clearance hole in the
vent extension, and into the engagement hole in the
vent pipe. The length of the vent pipe extension that

Installing and Securing Unit to Wall Sleeve
Before installing and securing the unit to the wall sleeve,
make sure that the proper louver kit is installed. Due the
high temperatures of the combustion products released
from the gas vent, MGE gas package units require the use
of either an aluminum louver kit or special MGE polypro-
pylene louver kit (see ACCESSORIES on page 17).
1. Make sure the gaskets attached to the sleeve are not
damaged.
,
Verify divider panel is positioned properly. Figure 5
shows the correct position for 60" and 64" tall units
(flange pointing up). For 58" tall units, the divider panel
should be positioned so the flange points down.
