VENT CONFIGURATIONS AND RESTRICTOR SETTINGS:
Fig 18 shows the range of venting options. Any layout that remains within the shaded area of Figure 18 is
acceptable. Having the fewest number of elbows is ideal, as they tend to disrupt air movement. Using 45˚ elbows
is preferable to using 90˚ elbows. Also, a shorter vent system will perform better than a longer one.
The vent restrictor controls the amount of air moving through the vent pipe. Longer vertical vent lengths necessitiate
greater restraint. Figure 18 shows the vent restrictor settings required, relative to the length of vent pipe. The vent
restrictor is located on the right side of the replace, above the glass. Figure 18 shows the vent restrictor handle
and the holes that indicate the different levels. To avoid injury it is best to make this adjustment when the replace
is cool or use welder’s gloves or oven mitts.
