Installation
POWER VENT INSTALLATION:
Power venting is where the indoor air is used and
the exhaust is vented to the outside. Venting may
be run horizontally through an outside wall or
vertically through a roof using either 4" (10.2 cm)
or 6" (15.2 cm) diameter PVC, ABS or CPVC. This
water heater is supplied with a screened intake
elbow and exhaust coupling referred to as the air
intake terminal and the exhaust vent terminal
In a horizontal application, it is important that con-
densate not be allowed to buildup in the exhaust
vent pipe. To prevent this from happening, the pipe
should be installed with a slight upward slope of
1/8” per foot. The vent system must be supported
every 5 feet of vertical run and every 3 feet of hori-
zontal run of vent pipe length.
Failure to properly support the vent piping with
hangers and clamps may result in damage to the
water heater or venting system.
