19 -  In no case, shall the vent connector be sized more 

than two consecutive table size diameters over the 

size of the draft hood outlet or flue collar outlet.

20 -  Do not install a manual damper, barometric draft 

regulator or flue restrictor between the furnace and 

the chimney.

21 -  When connecting this appliance to an existing 

dedicated or common venting system, you must 

inspect the venting system’s general condition 

and look for signs of corrosion. The existing vent 

pipe size must conform to these instructions and 

the provided venting tables. If the existing venting 

system does not meet these requirements, it must 

be resized.

NOTE - 

Single appliance venting configurations with zero lateral lengths are assumed to have no elbows in the vent system. For 

all other vent configurations, the vent system is assumed to have two 90° elbows. For each additional 90° elbow or equivalent (for 

example two 45° elbows equal one 90° elbow) beyond two, the maximum capacity listed in the venting table should be reduced by 

10 percent (0.90 x maximum listed capacity).
