4.6 Venting
DANGER:
Risk of CO poisoning!
▶ Do not reduce the exhaust or combustion air vent pipe
sizes.
▶ Do not common vent with any other vented appliance or
stove.
▶ Do not use Type-B vent as the actual exhaust vent system
for the appliance.
DANGER:
Flue gas poisoning!
▶ Failure to vent the exhaust gases to the outside (see table 5
for proper material) may result in dangerous flue gases
filling the structure in which it is installed.

require sealed combustion (twin pipe / concentric).
Damage caused from back draft, ie. freezing, are not
covered by warranty.
NOTICE:

▶ Protect the inlet air supply from leaves and debris by
installing a screen on the intake of the termination. A
minimum screen mesh size of ¼" is recommended.
▶ Do not install the water heater in areas where dust and
chemicals like hair sprays, spray detergents, or chlorine
may accumulate.
Do not cover non-metallic vent pipe and fittings with thermal
insulation, unless going through an insulated wall or ceiling.
