Sidewall direct venting
Sidewall termination – optional concentric vent: Models 400 - 601 Only
Figure 4-9 Concentric Vent Dimensional Drawing - Models 400 - 601
Instead of cementing the smaller pipe to 
the rain cap, a fi eld-supplied stainless steel 
screw may be used to secure the two (2) 
components together when fi eld disassembly 
is desired for cleaning (see FIG. 4-10).
When using the alternate screw assembly 
method, drill a clearance hole in the rain 
cap and a pilot hole in the vent pipe for 
the screw size being used. Failure to drill 
adequate holes may cause cracking of PVC 
components, allowing combustion products 
to be recirculated. Failure to follow this 
warning could result in personal injury or 
death.
Do not operate the appliance with the rain 
cap removed or recirculation of combustion 
products may occur. Water may also collect 
inside the larger combustion air pipe and 
fl ow to the burner enclosure. Failure to 
follow this warning could result in product 
damage or improper operation, personal 
injury, or death.

6. Install the Y concentric fi tting and pipe assembly through
the structure’s hole from an inside wall.
Do not allow insulation or other materials 
to accumulate inside the pipe assembly 
when installing through the hole.
7. Install the rain cap and small diameter pipe assembly
into the Y concentric fi tting and large pipe assembly 
from an outside wall. Ensure small diameter pipe is 
fastened tightly into the rubber adapter for #CVK3007 
installations.
8. Secure the assembly to the structure as shown in
FIG. 4-11 using fi eld-supplied metal strapping or 
equivalent support material.
Ensure termination location clearance 
dimensions are as shown in FIG. 4-7. 
If assembly needs to be extended to allow 
sidewall thickness requirement, the two 
(2) pipes supplied in the kit may be 
replaced by using the same diameter, 
fi eld-supplied standard schedule 40 PVC 
for CVK3007. Do not extend dimension 
D* more than 60 inches (1524 mm) (see 
FIG. 4-9).
