NOTE:

While a drain connection is required in the

vent of all XFyre installations, the drain can be ac-

complished in several different ways. The figures in

this manual show the drain in a vent tee, however,

this can also be accomplished using an inline collec-

tor  for  condensing  stacks  or  an  inline  vertical  or

horizontal  collector  available  from  several  of  the

listed vent manufacturers.

CAUTION: 

This  venting  system  requires  the

installation of a condensate drain in the vent piping

per  the  vent  manufacturer’s  instructions.  Failure  to

install a condensate drain in the venting system will

void all warranties on this boiler.

Installation

These installations utilize the heater-mounted blower

to  draw  combustion  air  and  to  vent  the  combustion

products  to  the  outdoors.  The  combustion  air  intake

and the vent are installed horizontally through the wall

to the outdoors. Adequate ventilation air must be sup-

plied  to  the  equipment  room  in  accordance  with  the

NFGC (U.S.) or B149 (Canada).

WARNING:

No  substitutions  of  flue  pipe  or  vent

cap material are allowed. Such substitutions would

jeopardize the safety and health of inhabitants.

The  total  length  of  the  horizontal  through-the-wall

direct vent system should not exceed 200 equivalent ft

in  length.  If  combined  vent/intake  run  exceeds  200

equivalent  ft,  an  appropriately  sized  variable-speed

extractor must be used. Each elbow used is equal to

10 ft of straight pipe with a maximum of 4 elbows each

on the air intake and vent.

The vent cap is not considered in the overall length of

the venting system.

The vent must be installed to prevent flue gas leakage.

Care must be taken during assembly to ensure that all

joints  are  sealed  properly  and  are  airtight.  The  vent

must be installed to prevent the potential accumulation

of condensate in the vent pipes. It is required that:

1. The vent must be installed with condensate drains

as directed by the vent manufacturer.

2. The  vent  must  be  installed  with  a  slight  upward

slope of not less than 1/4 inch per foot of horizon-

tal run to the vent terminal.

Termination

The vent cap MUST be mounted on the exterior of the

building. The vent cap cannot be installed in a well or

below grade. The vent cap must be installed at least 1

ft above ground level and above normal snow levels.

Only Raypak-approved vent caps may be used. The

vent terminal must be located NO CLOSER than 12”

off the wall.

NOTE:

Vent and intake piping must be supported so

that the weight of the venting is not transfered to the

unit. Horizontal runs of vent and intake piping must

be supported to prevent sagging.
