SPECIAL NOTES:
a) You may use up to three HEVK-5 Kits for a total of 15’ vent extension with two additional elbows. DO NOT EXTEND VENT BEYOND 15’ OR USE MORE THAN  THREE TOTAL ELBOWS (one elbow comes with the heater).
b) To connect two vent kits together use P/N 72532 2”x3” steel coupling. Secure with 2” hose clamps.
c) If you are using one, two, or three kits, after installation is complete you will discard 2 P/N 72593 hose clamps and one P/N 72532 steel coupling.
d) If you need to make a 90E offset you will need to order P/N HEEL-1 90E Elbow Kit. Two offsets require two kits.
e) If the complete vent extension is horizontal, pipes may be sloped down slightly to allow any condensate to drain through the exhaust pipe to the outside. DO NOT ALLOW IT TO  DRAIN ONTO THE WALKWAY. If any part of the vent extension is vertical or local codes do not allow draining of condensate to outside you must add P/N 18900 Condensate Kit.
f) For cosmetic purposes, the addition of the HEVK-5 Kit can be enclosed by adding a HEVE-5 Vent Enclosure Kit. To completely enclose the HEVK-5 Kit one HEVE-5 will be needed for each HEVK-5 used.
