8. Vent Termination – Horizontal (Continued)
Allow at least 1 M (3 ft) vertical clearance over vent
termination when terminating under an overhang or deck.
Avoid corners or alcoves where snow or wind could have
an effect. Exhaust may affect shrubbery and some
building materials. Keep shrubbery away from
termination. To prevent staining or deterioration, sealing
or shielding exposed surfaces may be required.

HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL VENTING FLEXIBLE DUCT (FLEX-VENT)
(See Figures 24, 25, 26 & 27)
NOTE: THE ALLOWABLE VENT RUNS FOR EACH VENT
PIPE DIAMETER ARE DIFFERENT AND CAN NOT BE
EXCEEDED.
It is recommended that vent runs over 5.4 m (18 ft) may need to be
insulated to reduce condensation related problems and/or the use of
a condensate trap in the vent run close to the heater may be
necessary in certain installations such as cold climates. Horizontal
vents 1 m (3 feet) or less in length do not require a condensate tee.
The MasterTemp heater is suitable for through-the-wall venting. See
Table 8 for maximum permissible Flexible Vent lengths.
CAUTION
Do NOT combine exhaust vent pipes to a common exhaust vent in
multiple unit installations. Run separate vent pipes.
