16. Use appropriate methods to seal openings where vent pipe
passes through roof or sidewall.
D.
Extended Exposed Sidewall Pipes
Sidewall vent pipe termination may be extended beyond area
shown in Fig. 40 and in outside ambient by insulating pipe as
indicated in Table 7.
1. Determine vent pipe diameter, as stated above, using total
pipe length and number of elbows.
2. Find appropriate temperature for your application and
furnace model using winter design temperature (used in
load calculations).
3. Determine required insulation thickness for exposed pipe
lengths.
NOTE:
Pipe length (ft) specified for maximum pipe lengths
located in unconditioned spaces cannot exceed total allowable pipe
length as specified in Table 6.
E.
Vent Termination
Vent pipe must terminate either through roof or sidewall. See
Table 8 for required clearances. See Fig. 39, 40, and 41 for exterior
piping arrangements.
F.
Multiventing
When 2 or more 345MAV Furnaces are vented near each other,
each furnace must be individually vented. NEVER common vent
or breach vent 345MAV furnaces.
VII.
CONDENSATE DRAIN
A.
General
Condensate trap is shipped installed in the blower shelf and factory
connected for UPFLOW applications. Condensate trap must be
RELOCATED for use in DOWNFLOW and HORIZONTAL
applications.
Fig. 34—Combustion-Air and Vent Pipe Connections
CAUTION:
Make sure there is adequate clearance (3-in.
minimum) to any fixed or loose objects in order to ensure
an adequate combustion-air supply. Failure to follow this
caution will result in intermittent unit operation or per-
formance satisfaction.
