Stainless steel air intake/vent connections

1.

Combustion Air Intake Connector (FIG. 3-11) - Used to
provide combustion air directly to the unit from
outdoors. A fitting is provided on the unit for final
connection. Combustion air piping must be supported
per guidelines listed in the National Mechanical Code,
Section 305, Table 305.4 or as local codes dictate.

2.

Vent Connector (FIG. 3-11) - Used to provide a
passageway for conveying combustion gases to the
outside. A transition fitting is provided on the unit for
final connection. Vent piping must be supported per the
National Building Code, Section 305, Table 305.4 or as
local codes dictate.

The Knight boiler uses model specific combustion air intake
and vent piping sizes as detailed in Table 3C below.

Table 3C Air Intake/Vent Piping Sizes

Increasing or decreasing combustion air
or vent piping is not authorized.

NOTICE

Minimum / Maximum allowable
combustion air and vent piping lengths
are as follows:

Combustion Air = 12 equivalent feet minimum / 100
equivalent feet maximum

Vent = 12 equivalent feet minimum / 100 equivalent feet
maximum

When determining equivalent combustion air and vent length,
add 5 feet for each 90° elbow and 3 feet for each 45° elbow.

EXAMPLE: 20 feet of PVC pipe + (4) 90° elbows + (2) 45°
elbows + (1) concentric vent kit (CVK3003) = 49 equivalent
feet of piping.

The appliance output rating will reduce by
up to 1.5% for each 25 feet of vent length.
