INTRODUCTION This instruction covers the installation of Vent Terminal Cover Kit Part No. 58SXB900 041 or 051 on Model 58DX, DXA, DXC, SX, SXA, SXB, and SXC Gas-Fired Condensing Furnaces. The kit is designed to improve the appearance of the vent termination.
DESCRIPTION AND USAGE Vent Terminal Cover Kit, Part No. 58SXB900 041 is designed for use with Vent Terminal Kit Part No. 58SX-900 001 and 58SXA900 031. Vent Terminal Cover Kit Part No. 58SXB900–051 is designed for use with Vent Terminal Kit Part No. 58SX-900 011 and 58SXA900 041. In addition to the following instructions, refer to the Vent Terminal Kit Installation Instructions and the furnace Installation Instructions for information and requirements. Terminal cover dimensions for the 2-in. kit are 11 X 18-1/2 X 6-1/2-in. Terminal cover dimensions for the 3-in. kit are 13-3/4 X 20 X 9-1/4-in. These cover dimensions include a 3/4-in. flange on both sides and the top. Pipe cement and primer used for the combustion-air and vent piping are recommended for gluing applications outlined in this instruction if used sparingly. Other adhesives, such as GE RTV 122 or 162 can be used sparingly in place of the cement on the installation of this kit–they are not acceptable for assembling the piping. All adhesive must be set and cured (see instructions on adhesive container) before cover is installed and furnace is operated. NOTE: This kit is to be used only for sidewall termination as shown in Fig. 2 or Fig. 3. The Vent Terminal Cover Kit contains the following items: Terminal cover Terminal cover plate Plastic screen Installation Instructions Step 1–Terminal Cover Installation (1) (1) (1) (1) adhesive has set before continuing installation. 3.

Brick structures may require installation of plastic anchors in mortar joints to permit attachment of terminal cover. c. Structures with siding: locate holes where terminal cover comes in contact with siding if possible. NOTE: Combustion-air piping must be at least 1/2 inch from screening (on bottom of terminal cover) after cover is attached to structure. 4. If desired, cut and insert screening into vent pipe to obstruct foreign objects from entering piping.
