RBI can supply a package that includes the properly size power vent fan and termination hoods.  This is used when the horizontal run exceeds the units limitations or you attempt to combine a category I appliance in a category III breeching.  Note that RME also represents Exhausto which has a total solution for any venting challange.

Racking Kits
