<strong>GB125</strong> <strong>Concentric</strong> <strong>Vent</strong><br />
Design Manual<br />
3. Description of the systems<br />
3.1. Scope<br />
The concentric venting system described in this manual<br />
is used exclusively for the <strong>Buderus</strong> <strong>GB125</strong> boiler. No<br />
other venting system can be used with this boiler, and the<br />
venting system can not be used in conjunction with any<br />
other boiler.<br />
Do not replace or substitute any vent or combustion air<br />
pipe with another brand, make, model, or material.<br />
The <strong>Buderus</strong> <strong>GB125</strong> is designed for balanced flue<br />
operation only. All combustion air is drawn from the<br />
outdoors. Use of balancers or barometric dampers defies<br />
the system principle and is not permitted.<br />
HTK - Direct vent through<br />
side wall<br />
(See page 12)<br />
Part Number: 7747310386<br />
DO - Vertical vent through<br />
conditioned and unconditioned<br />
space (NOT -suitable<br />
for installation outdoors)<br />
(See page 13)<br />
Part Number: 7747200752<br />
Installation and service of <strong>Buderus</strong> concentric venting<br />
systems must be performed by a trained installer.<br />
CAUTION! Never connect this concentric vent to<br />
a common venting system<br />
3.2. Available systems<br />
GAK - Liner inside an existing<br />
chimney;<br />
Option 1: rigid pipe for a<br />
straight chimney;<br />
Option 2: flexible liner for<br />
chimneys with an offset or<br />
bend;<br />
(See page 15)<br />
Part Number: 7747200755<br />
The three types of systems that are available are shown<br />
in Fig. 1:<br />
Observe the maximum vent lengths for each boiler size<br />
as shown in Table 1.<br />
Fig.1<br />
Available systems<br />
Systems are available as prepackaged kits that include<br />
the essential components needed in every installation.<br />
Refer to the descriptions of the individual system for<br />
included items. For most systems extra straight pipe and<br />
additional elbows must be purchased as needed. See list<br />
of accessories for every system.<br />

The GAK system draws combustion air from the<br />
roof and may not be suitable for installation in<br />
multi-flue chimneys, where a second flue vents a<br />
combustion appliance that is used on a regular<br />
basis. Flue gases could be drawn in with <strong>GB125</strong><br />
combustion air and cause system interruption.<br />
<strong>GB125</strong> - 35 17' (5.2 m) 71' (23 m) 71' (23 m)<br />
The overall lengths include two elbows for the HT-K, and<br />
one elbow for the DO and GAK kits. Every additional<br />
elbow (accessory) reduces the maximum vent length by 3<br />
ft (1 m).<br />
