Venting

Direct vent appliances are sealed combustion systems. That means the air for combustion is delivered to the appliance through the venting system from the outside. As a result, direct vent appliances do not consume warm indoor air for combustion, and they are not subject to oxygen starvation, poor draft and other problems associated with "tight" energy efficient homes.

With sealed direct vent systems, all combustion by-products are safely vented out through the venting system, eliminating fumes, water moisture and indoor air contamination. Direct venting is ideal for both side-wall venting, as well as conventional through-the-roof vent installations.
