steel chassis of the mobile home with 8 GA copper
wire using a serrated or star washer to penetrate
paint or protective coating to ensure grounding.

extend a minimum or 36” (914 mm) above the roof
line of the mobile home and must be installed
using a certified ceiling fire stop and rain cap.

CONNECTED TO A FLUE SYSTEM OTHER THAN
THE WAY EXPLAINED IN THIS MANUAL, IT
WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY.
MAXIMUM VENTING DISTANCE
Installation MUST include at least 3-feet of vertical
pipe outside the home. This will create some natural
draft to reduce the possibility of smoke or odor
