requirements:
• Vent pipes - see requirements, page 8.
• Combustion air pipes - see requirements, page 8.
• Taper-type vent pipe diameter reducers and/or increasers as required.

• Flashing.
• Sheetmetal screws, tape, and sealant as required.
Installation Instructions
for Horizontal Vent Kit
Option CC6
1. Determine the location on the outside wall for the vent terminal. Location must comply
with vent length requirements, Requirement No. 3 on page 8. In most applications, the
terminal would be on a level with the heater mounting height. Allow 1/4" per foot (6mm per
305mm) downward pitch for condensate drain.
The distance of the termination of the horizontal vent from adjacent public walkways, adja-
cent buildings, openable windows, and building openings must be in accordance with local
codes or, in the absence of local codes, must conform with National Fuel Gas Code Z223.2.
Local codes supersede all provisions in these instructions and in the National Fuel Gas
Code. Minimum clearances for the horizontal vent terminal are shown below. Also, select a
location that complies with adjoining building clearances as shown in FIGURE 13, page 14.
Products of combustion can cause discoloring of some building finishes and deterioration of
masonry materials. Applying a clear silicone sealant that is normally used to protect concrete
driveways can protect masonry materials. If discoloration is an esthetic problem re-locate the
vent or install a vertical vent.
2. Install the Vent Pipe and Combustion Air Pipe Runs - Use the type of pipe specified in
Requirement No. 1, page 8. Comply with requirements in Requirement No. 2 and No. 4, page
8, when attaching pipes to the heater.
Seal all joints. Due to the high temperature, do not enclose the exhaust pipe or place pipe
closer than 6" (152 mm) to combustible material. Extend the runs close to the wall location
selected in Step 1. Support pipes as required in Requirement No. 5, page 10.
WARNING: All vent
terminals must be
positioned or located
away from fresh air
intakes, doors and
windows to preclude
combustion products
from entering occupied
space. Failure to comply
could result in severe
personal injury or death
and/or property damage.
