Do not

point terminals into window wells, stairwells, al-

coves or other recessed areas. It is preferable for the air

intake to terminate on opposite or adjacent sides of the

structure from the dryer vent. If this is not practical, main-

tain a 3 foot clearance (residential laundry) or a 10 foot

clearance (commercial laundry).

VERTICAL VENT/INTAKE TERMINATIONS

If the vent and air intake pipes are to be run vertically

through the roof, they must extend at least 12 inches above

the roof line and shall be no closer than 12 inches to any

vertical wall. The vent pipe must extend at least 12 inches

above the air intake (See Figure 8). In areas where heavy

snow accumulation is expected, these distances will need

to be increased. The vent and air intake pipes must be

made tight where they pass through the roof with a proper

flashing such as used with a plastic plumbing vent.

Maintain at least a three foot clearance from the air intake

pipe to plumbing vent stacks.

Vertical Vent Termination

The vent and air intake pipe may be run through an existing

unused chimney. However, the pipes must be run all the

way through the chimney, with the air intake pipe terminat-

ing at least 12 inches above the top of the chimney.

See Figure 9 for explanation. The flue pipe must terminate

at least 12 inches above the air intake. The air intake and

exhaust may run side by side or as far apart as necessary

within the chimney.

The open space around the two pipes must be closed with

a weather tight, corrosion resistant flashing. NEVER VENT

WITH AN EXISTING APPLIANCE OR A VENT USED BY

A SOLID FUEL APPLIANCE.

VENT/INTAKE TERMINATIONS FOR INSTALLATION

OF MULTIPLE DIRECT VENT FURNACES

If more than one direct vent furnace is to be installed

vertically through a common roof top, maintain the same

minimum clearances between the exhaust vent and air

intake terminations of adjacent units as with the exhaust

vent and air intake terminations of a single unit (Figure 8).

If more than one direct vent furnace is to be installed

horizontally through a common side wall, maintain the

clearances as shown in Figure 10. Always terminate all

exhaust vent outlets at the same elevation and always

terminate all air intakes at the same elevation.

PIPES SIZING

Consult Tables 1 to 3 to select the proper diameter exhaust

and combustion air piping. The vent and air intake piping

is sized for each unit model number based on inside piping

length and number of inside 90° elbows required. Two 45°

elbows are equivalent to one 90° elbow. For all piping, the

elbow(s) used for vent & air pipe termination outside the
