Ensure termination height is above the roof
surface or anticipated snow level (12 inches
(305 mm) in U.S.A. or 18 inches (457 mm)
in Canada) as shown in FIG. 5-5, page 30.
If assembly is too short to meet height
requirement, the two (2) pipes supplied in
the kit may be replaced by using the same
diameter, field supplied standard schedule 40
PVC for CVK3007. Do not extend
dimension D* more than 60 inches
(1524 mm) (see FIG. 4-9, page 25).
CAUTION
DO NOT use field-supplied couplings to
extend pipes. Airflow restriction will
occur.
8. Install the rain cap and the small diameter pipe assembly
into the roof penetration assembly. Ensure the small
diameter pipe is fastened tightly into the rubber adapter
for #CVK3007 installations.
9. Cement the appliance combustion air and vent pipes to
the concentric vent termination assembly. See FIG. 5-7
for proper pipe attachment.
10. Operate the appliance through one (1) heat cycle to
ensure combustion air and vent pipes are properly
connected to the concentric vent termination
connections.
Multiventing vertical terminations
When two (2) or more direct vent appliances are vented near
each other, each appliance must be individually vented (see
FIG. 5-8). NEVER common vent or breach vent this
appliance. When two (2) or more direct vent appliances are
vented near each other, two (2) vent terminations may be
installed as shown in FIG. 5-8. The next two (2) terminations
must be at least 36 inches (914 mm) away from the first two
(2) terminations. It is important that vent terminations be
made as shown to avoid recirculation of flue gases.
Dimension A in FIG. 5-8 represents the distance between
pipes or rain shields, as touching or a 2 inch (51 mm)
maximum separation.

Do not operate the appliance with the rain
cap removed or recirculation of combustion
products may occur. Water may also collect
inside the larger combustion air pipe and
flow to the burner enclosure. Failure to
follow this warning could result in product
damage or improper operation, personal
injury, or death.
6. Install the Y concentric fitting pipe assembly up through the
structure’s hole and field supplied roof boot/flashing.
Do not allow insulation or other materials to
accumulate inside the pipe assembly when
installing through the hole.
7. Secure the assembly to the roof structure as shown below in
FIG. 5-7 using field supplied metal strapping or equivalent
support material.
