Explain like I’m 5 - Big Maxx venting

[rustyshakelford]

There’s some really nice installs. I was tired of listening to my torpedo heater and wanted something quieter this year. It is rated to heat nearly the whole shop but I wanted to make it portable so I’m heating the area I’m working instead of everywhere. Used flex vent to run the exhaust out one of my 5 doors. Not saying it’s right, pretty sure it’s actually wrong but so far seems to be working great

There’s an “unwritten rule”.........no vent stacks on the front view of the home.


On power vent never heard of prevailing winds. If winds were a concern it would be huge problem as the wind could come from any direction at 10-75 mph.

Just going by the manufacturers instructions.

Not rule it’s.............. Aesthetics


Look at other homes.......no penetrations on the street view.

Go for the right side of the garage. By far less cost.

The other choice Rinnai heater with concentric 2.5” wall vent to the right side of the garage.
