Through The Wall Venting (Horizontal Venting):

Cut a 3 1/2 in. (8.9 cm) diameter hole in the wall at the point where the vent

connector is going to pass through the wall. Use the proper cement to secure

the 90° vent terminal provided with the water heater to the vent connector. The

distance between the edge of the 90° vent terminal and the exterior wall (see

Figure 3a & 3b) must be 1 in. (2.5 cm). Use the proper cement and assembly

procedures to secure the vent connector joints between the terminal and the

blower outlet. Provide support brackets for every 5 ft. (1.5 m) of horizontal vent.

IMPORTANT

All of the venting connections must be leak checked with a soap and water solution

upon initial start-up of the water heater. Any leaks must be repaired before continuing

operation of the water heater.
