If recessing into a wall, you can avoid extra
framing by positioning your replace against
an already existing framing member.
Do not recess termination cap into a wall or
siding.
You may paint the termination cap with 450º F
(232º C) heat-resistant paint to coordinate with
the exterior nish.
There must not be any obstruction such as
bushes, garden sheds, fences, decks or util-
ity buildings within 24" from the front of the
termination cap.
Do not locate termination cap where excessive
snow or ice build up may occur. Be sure to
clear vent termination area after snow falls to
prevent accidental blockage of venting system.
When using snow blowers, do not direct snow
towards vent termination area.
For horizontal installations above 2,000 feet, it
is recommended that a 12" extension pipe be
added before starter elbow and a round hori-
zontal termination be used (see High Altitude
Installation, page 17).

place are as follows:
*Back and sides 0"
