beyond the exterior wall after Horizontal Cap

is attached. If you are burning Corn you must

use a Round Horizontal Cap. Pipe Sections

exposed to exhaust gases between wall and

Cap must have a Stainless Steel outer liner.

The Round Horizontal Cap can be swiveled to

be directed away from nearby objects (fence,

plants, etc.), but must still be pointing in a

generally downward direction. Important:

Horizontal Caps must be pointed in a

downward direction to insure rain and snow do

not enter the cap, and cause potential damage

to the appliance.

C. Follow the below listed NFPA 211 rule for

distance of exit terminal from windows and

openings:

NFPA 211 (2006 ed.) Section 10.4 Termination:

10.4.5

(1) The exit terminal of a mechanical draft

system other than a direct vent appliance

(sealed combustion system appliance) shall be

located in accordance with the following:

(a) Not less than 3 ft (.91m) above any forced

air inlet located within 10 ft. (3m).

(b) Not less than 4 ft. (1.2m) below, 4 ft.

(1.2m) horizontally from or 1 ft. (305mm)

above any door, window or gravity air inlet

into any building

(c) Not less than 2 ft. (0.61m) from an

adjacent building and not less than 7

ft. (2.1m) above grade when located

adjacent to public walkways.

If using the Wall Thimble Air Intake Kit, the

installation may be considered a direct vent

system, as defined by NFPA 211. Check with

local building officials for clarification. If so, the

clearances for the exit terminal are as follows:

For an appliance with an input of 10,000 Btu/h

(2930 W) or less, the vent terminal shall be

located at least 6" from any opening into a

building. For an appliance with an input of

greater than 10,000 Btu/h but less than 50,000

Btu/h (14650 W), the vent terminal shall be

located not less than 9" from any opening into

a building. For an appliance with an input over

50,000 Btu/h (14650 W), the vent terminal

shall be located not less than 12" away from

any building opening. The bottom of the vent

terminal and air intake must be located a

minimum of 12" above grade.
