SECTION VI:  VENTING 
 
 
WARNING
 
The vent system must be properly installed.  Failure to properly install the vent system could result in property 
damage, personal injury, or death. 
DO NOT install damaged venting system components.  If damage is evident then please contact the supplier 
where the water heater was purchased or the manufacturer listed on the rating plate for replacement parts. 
Use only the vent terminals provided or factory authorized terminals for venting this water heater. 
The water heater requires its own separate venting system.  Do not connect the exhaust vent into an existing vent 
pipe or chimney. 
All of the exhaust venting connections must be leak checked with a soap solution upon initial start up of the water 
heater.  Any leaks must be repaired before continuing operation of the water heater. 
Do not terminate the venting where noise from the exhaust or intake will be objectionable.  This includes locations 
close to or across from windows and doors.  Avoid anchoring the vent and intake pipes directly to framed walls, 
floors, or ceilings unless rubber isolation pipe hangers are used.  This prevents any vibrations from being 
transmitted into the living spaces. 
Do not exceed the venting distances or the number of elbows listed in this manual.  Exceeding the maximum 
venting distances may cause the water heater to malfunction or cause an unsafe condition. 
DO NOT operate this water heater until the venting installation is complete and the piping completed.  Failure to 
complete installation before operation can result in property damage, personal injury, or death. 
WARNING
 
Risk of carbon monoxide poisoning or fire due to joint separation or pipe breakage. 
This water heater must be properly vented and connected to an approved vent system in good condition.  DO NOT 
operate water heater with the absence of an approved vent system.   A clean and unobstructed vent system is 
necessary to allow noxious fumes that could cause injury or loss of life to vent safely and will contribute toward 
maintaining the water heater’s efficiency.  The acceptance of the venting system is dependent upon full compliance 
with these installation instructions. 
Venting system must not pass through rated fire separations. 
The venting system must be free to expand and contract.  This venting system must be supported in accordance 
with these instructions.
