Details of Exhaust Piping Terminations for NonDirect
Vent Installations.
Exhaust pipes may be routed either horizontally through an
outside wall or vertically through the roof. In attic or closet
installations, vertical termination through the roof is pre
ferred. Figures 20 through 23 show typical terminations.
1.
Exhaust piping must terminate straight out or up as
shown. A 2" (51mm) X 1−1/2" (38mm) reducer for 2"
(51mm) venting, 3" (76mm) x 2" (51mm) reducer for 3"
(76mm) venting is recommended for use on the ex
haust piping at the point where it exits the structure to
improve the velocity of exhaust away from any intake
piping.
2. On field supplied terminations for side wall exits, ex
haust piping should extend a maximum of 12 inches
(305mm) beyond the outside wall for 2" (51mm) pipe,
or a maximum of 20 inches (508mm) for 3" (76mm)
pipe, unless support is provided in the horizontal sec
tion. See figure 21.

3. If exhaust piping must be run up a side wall to position
above snow accumulation or other obstructions, pip
ing must be supported every 3 feet (.9m) as shown in
figure 16. Refer to figure 22 for proper piping method.
When exhaust piping must be run up an outside wall,
any reduction in exhaust pipe size must be done after
the final elbow.

G41UF VENTING IN EXISTING CHIMNEY
NOTE − Do not discharge exhaust gases directly into any chimney or vent stack. If ver
tical discharge through an existing unused chimney or stack is required, insert piping
inside chimney until the pipe open end is above top of chimney and terminate as illus
trated. In any exterior portion of chimney, the exhaust vent must be insulated.

Condensate Piping
This unit is designed for either right or leftside exit of con
densate piping. Condensate drain line should be routed
only within the conditioned space to avoid freezing of con
densate and blockage of drain line. An electric heat cable
should be used where condensate line is exposed to un
conditioned areas.
1 − Determine which side condensate piping will exit the
unit. Remove temporary plugs from the condensate
collar on the appropriate side of the unit.
