[Note: There are critical safety concerns involved here. Read the whole answer!] I'm no plumber, but I do know this: You need to determine if your water heater is designed for side venting or verticle venting! If installed improperly, the water heater may allow deadly carbon monoxide into your home and possibly cause a fire! I think this one is best left up to a professional. Hope this helps.
