Unit sizes 150–400: Insulate single wall vent pipe 
exposed to cold air or running through unheated 
areas.
Unit Sizes 30–120 Only: Vertically Vented 
Unit Heaters (Category III)
Observe the following precautions when venting the unit:
1.
Use flue pipe of the same size as the flue connection(s) 
on the gas unit heater, 4” (102 mm). All heaters must 
be vented with a single or double wall pipe listed for 
positive pressure vent systems.
2. Each unit must have an individual vent pipe and vent 
terminal. Unit MUST NOT be connected to other vent 
systems or to a chimney.
3. Category III units are limited to a maximum of 40 feet 
(12.19 m) equivalent length of vent pipe. Equivalent 
length is the total length of straight sections PLUS 
5 feet (1.5 m) for each 90° elbow and 2.5 feet (0.75 m) 
for each 45° elbow.
4. The top of the vent pipe should extend at least 2 feet 
(0.61 m) above the highest point on the roof. 
Consideration should be made for anticipated snow 
depth. Install an Amerivent Americap or Metalbestos 
vent cap over the vent opening. Slope horizontal runs 
upward from the gas unit heater at least 1/4-inch per 
foot (21 mm/m) minimum. Horizontal portions of the 
venting system shall be supported at minimum 
intervals of 4 feet (1.2 m); in Canada, support at 3 feet 
(1 m) minimum intervals: see 
, and 
.
5. Seal all vent pipe joints and seams to prevent leakage. 
Use General Electric RTV-108, Dow-Corning RTV-732, 
or equivalent silicone sealant with a temperature

WARNING
Carbon Monoxide!
Never operate unit heaters without combustion air and 
flue gas piping in place. Each unit heater MUST have its 
own combustion air system and MUST NOT be 
connected to other vent systems or to a chimney. Your 
venting system must not be blocked by any snow, 
snow drifts, or any foreign matter. Inspect your venting 
system to ensure adequate ventilation exists at all 
times! Failure to follow these recommendations could 
result in death or serious injury.
