H. Install Flue Restrictor
In certain situations, it may be necessary to add a flue
restrictor to the appliance.
As a general guideline, the appliance should not need a flue
restrictor with up to approximately 20 ft. of vertical venting.
A vent run with 20 ft. to 30 ft. of vertical venting, may require
the 3-1/2 in. flue restrictor.
A vent run in excess of 30 ft. of vertical venting, may require
the 3-1/4 in. flue restrictor.
To install a flue restrictor in this appliance, loosen (3) opposing
screws on the inside of the firebox on the open flue. Back
the screws out about 1/4 in. See Figure 10.14.
