PRECAUTIONS
These venting systems are engineered
products that have been designed and
tested for use with the U39-NG1, and

Warning: Always maintain
required clearances (air spaces)
to nearby combustibles to
prevent a fi re hazard. Do not fi ll
air spaces with insulation.
Be sure to check the vent termination
clearance requirements from decks,
windows, soffi ts, gas regulators, air supply
inlets and public walkways as specifi ed
in the "Exterior Vent Terminal Locations"
section in your local building codes.
The gas appliance and vent system
must be vented directly to the outside
of the building, and never be attached
to a chimney serving a separate solid
fuel or gas-burning appliance. Each
direct vent gas appliance must use it's
own separate vent system. Common vent
systems are prohibited.
