VENTING REQUIREMENTS

IMPORTANT: This range must be exhausted outdoors unless you are using

ductless venting. Observe all governing codes and ordinances. Do not

obstruct flow of combustion and ventilation air.

Makeup Air

Local building codes may require the use of makeup air systems when using

ventilation systems greater than specified CFM of air movement. The specified

CFM varies from locale to locale. Consult your HVAC professional for specific

requirements in your area.

• Do not terminate the vent system in an attic or other enclosed area.

• Use an approved vent cap for proper performance. If an alternate wall or

roof cap is used, be certain the cap size is not reduced and that it has a

backdraft damper.

• Vent system must terminate to the outside unless you are using a ductless

vent kit.

• Rigid metal vent is recommended. For best performance, do not use

plastic or metal foil vent.

• If a joist or stud must be cut, then a supporting frame must be

constructed.

• The size of the vent should be uniform.

• The vent system must have a damper.

• Seal all joints in the vent system.

• Use caulking to seal exterior wall or roof opening around the cap.

• Determine which venting method is best for your application.
