Do not attempt to vent this appliance by any means other than those described in this manual. Doing so will void the warranty, and may
result in severe personal injury or death.
Failure to provide an adequate fresh combustion air can cause poisonous flue gases to enter living space, which could result in severe
personal injury or death. To prevent combustion air contamination, see Table 1.
F. PREVENT COMBUSTION AIR CONTAMINATION
Install intake air piping for the appliance as described in the Venting Section. Do not terminate exhaust in locations that can allow
contamination of intake air.
Ensure that the intake air will not contain any of the contaminants listed in Table 1. Contaminated air will damage the appliance,
resulting in possible substantial property damage, severe personal injury, or death. For example, do not pipe intake near a swimming
pool. Also, avoid areas subject to exhaust fumes from laundry facilities. These areas always contain contaminants.

G. REMOVING AN APPLIANCE FROM A COMMON VENT
SYSTEM
Do not install the appliance into a common vent with any other
appliance. This will cause flue gas spillage or appliance malfunction,
resulting in possible substantial property damage, severe personal
injury, or death.
Failure to follow all instructions can result in flue gas spillage and
carbon monoxide emissions, causing severe personal injury or death.
When removing an existing appliance, follow the steps below.
1. Seal any unused openings in the common venting system.
2. Visually inspect the venting system for proper size and horizontal
pitch to determine if there is blockage, leakage, corrosion or other
deficiencies that could cause an unsafe condition.
3. If practical, close all building doors, windows and doors between the
space in which the appliance remains connected to the common venting system and other spaces in the building. Turn on clothes
NOTE: DAMAGE TO THE APPLIANCE CAUSED BY EXPOSURE TO CORROSIVE VAPORS IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY.
