(6.5 sq. cm) per 1,000 BTU/hr (293W) boiler
input, but not be less than 100 square inches
(645.2 sq. cm). These openings shall freely
connect with areas having adequate infiltration
from outside.

3.

When all air is provided from outdoors, the
confined space shall be provided with one
opening within 12" of the ceiling. This opening
shall connect directly, or by ducts, with outdoors
or spaces (crawl or attic) that freely connect
with the outdoors, and shall have a minimum free
area of:
a.

1 sq. in. per 3000 BTU/hr (7 cm

/kw) of the

total input rating of all equipment located
in the enclosure, and

b.

Not less than the sum of the areas of all
vent connectors in the confined space.

Part number 2400-372 is used with a vent

terminal (p/n 2400-277) to secure the 3 inch special

gas vent to the flue outlet of the appliance. Heat-Fab
pipe or fittings (p/n 2400-350 or 2400-352) or the male
end of Z-Vent pipe (Z-Vent # 02 SVEPXX030) may
be installed over the flue outlet of the Appliance (see
Figure 10).

Attach p/n 2400-277 with sheet metal screws to

the 5" collar on the appliance with a short piece of 5"
pipe or to the end of the 5" combustion air duct.
Attach p/n 2400-372 bracket and tighten clamp. Form
the tabs on the bracket onto the special gas vent pipe
and secure the tabs with the 3" clamp. After the clamp
has been tightened, fold the end of the tabs down over
the clamp (see Figure 10).

DO NOT use screws in any portion of the 3"

special gas vent.

When providing combustion air from another

location, the connection of the 5" duct to the appliance
must be secured with sheet metal screws.

Each 5" joint in the 5" duct must be secured with

sheet metal screws.

In this type of installation, p/n 2400-372 must be

used to secure the special gas vent at the point where it
exits the duct. The combustion air supply should be
protected from debris entering the duct with an
appliance vent terminal, p/n 2400-277, as shown in
Figure 8 or with a large mesh screen.

Follow the special gas vent manufacturer's

instructions for cleaning and sealing all parts before
assembling.

Apply ¼" bead of silicone sealer (GE108 or

Novagard 400) to the 3" flue outlet of the appliance
approximately 1" from the end.

Slide 3" inner vent pipe or 1-880 adapter, when

using outer 3" telescoping section, over the appliance
flue outlet and push down to stop (do not force pipe
beyond stop).

Apply another bead of silicone around this joint

and smooth out.

Apply ¼" bead of silicone to subsequent 3" joints.
An alternate, nonconcentric combustion air

source may be installed (as shown in Figure 11),
provided that the minimum 4" diameter combustion air
duct does not exceed 15' (4.6m). Termination should
include an air screen and be located in a qualified air
space (see Section 2E) or outside.

The appliance requires an inlet gas pressure of at

least 4" w.c. (1.0kPa) and no greater than 13" WC
(3.2kPa). Check with your local gas utility or supplier
for availability of this pressure range.

Refer to Table 3 to size the supply piping to

minimize pressure drop between meter or regulator
and unit.
