6. Slide the 8" flex pipe over the outer pipe of the DVP
flex starter that is attached to the unit. Secure the
flex pipe to the outer of the DVP flex starter with one
(1) large band clamp and three (3) self tapping #10
screws.
7. Remove the slip section from the termination cap.
8. Attach the DVP inner flex adapter to the inner pipe of
the slip section for the termination cap using three (3)
self tapping #10 screws.
9. Attach the DVP outer flex adapter to the outer pipe of
the slip section for the termination cap using three (3)
self tapping #10 screws.
10. Extend 5" inside flex pipe to reach the inner flex
adapter on the slip section of the termination cap
and install spacer springs. Spacer springs should be
equally spaced to prevent the inside and outside flex
pipe from touching each other and should be placed
in locations where the vent must bend.
11. Extend 8" outside flex pipe to reach the outer flex
adapter on the slip section of the termination cap.
12. Slide 5" inner flex pipe over the inner flex adapter on
the slip section and secure it with one (1) small band
clamp and three (3) self tapping #10 screws.
13. Slide 8" outer flex pipe over the outer flex adapter on
the slip section and secure it with one (1) large band
clamp and three (3) self tapping #10 screws.
14. Carefully form the flexible duct so the end attached to
the slip section aligns with the 8.25" diameter opening
in the DVP-FS 1" firestop.
CAUTION
DO NOT crush, distort, or otherwise modify the
dimension of the flexible vent. Damage could cause
appliance to overheat or have performance issues.
15. Install the termination cap to the exterior wall with four
(4) #8 x 3" screws provided. In some installations the
flexible vent may need to pass through the DVP-FS
wall shield firestop. The flexible vent outside diame-
ter exceeds the diameter of the hole in the DVP-FS.
The diameter of the inner hole of the DVP-FS will
need to be increased from 8
tion can be made by trimming 3/16" evenly around the
circumference of the inner hole in the DVP-FS. This
modification is not required in installations where the
DVP slip section projects through the DVP-FS.
16. Install the slip section on the end of the flex onto the
collars on the termination cap. Ensure that the two
overlap at least 1 ⁄ ". See page 6.

17. When using aluminum or vinyl siding, finish the edges
of the siding around the termination cap with "J chan-
nel" and caulking to prevent water from leaking into
the building.

Installation Instructions
1. A wall square firestop MUST BE installed if the vent
passes through a ceiling or exterior wall. Cut a 10"
wide x 10" high (254 x 254 mm) opening through the
exterior wall or framing. A wall rectangular firestop
(not provided) MUST BE installed if the vent passes
through interior walls. In that case, cut a 10" wide x 12"
high (254 x 305 mm) opening through the wall or fram-
ing. The framing members may need to be reinforced.
Position the firestop on the hole previously cut and se-
cure with screws or nails (not provided). Run vent pipe
through firestop. The gap between the vent pipe and
firestop may be sealed.
2. Attach slip section of cap to last vent section. Maintain
1 ⁄ in. overlap between slip and vent sections. Make

sure the termination cap is installed with the embossed
arrow pointing up.
3. If the house has vinyl siding, mark and cut the vinyl
siding around the pipe so the termination cap can be
mounted flush to the wall. Finish the edges of the sid-
ing with trim or "J channel" and caulking to prevent
water from leaking into the building. Figure 3
4. Attach the termination cap to the exterior wall using
four (4) screws provided.
