Benefits
Combustion air is drawn directly from the outside providing a constant supply of fresh air to the burner. Exhaust gases are vented directly outside eliminating the need to install a costly chimney. Flexible venting allows installers to overcome most obstacles (plumbing, piping, studs, etc.) they will encounter. A complete vent kit is supplied with every water heat
