What is concentric venting?

The Concentric Vent allows both the intake for combustion air and the exhaust vent to pass through a standard roof or sidewall. This is an alternative to the standard two pipe intake/vent shown in the basic furnace installation instructions.

Can you extend a concentric vent kit?

You can extend the concentric vent kit up to 60″ by replacing the piping between the concentric Y fitting and the rain cap. You must use SDR-26 PVC pipe. It’s 33.5″ length is so that it can extend through a single roof opening, then you can connect 2″ or 3″ pvc from your furnace to it.

How close can concentric vents be to each other?

a) Multiple Concentric Vents should not be installed directly above one another unless separated by a minimum distance of 3 feet.
