4" X 6-7/8" VENTING - VERTICAL FLEX VENT KIT (946-755)
1. Maintain the 1-½" clearance (air space) to combustibles when passing
through ceilings, walls, fl oors, enclosures, attic rafters or other nearby
combustibles. Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check Venting
sections for the maximum vertical rise of the venting system and the
maximum horizontal off set limitations.
Ensure that you maintain clearances around enclosures, walls, below
or above fl oors, fl oor joists, etc. Each appliance has diff erent clearance
requirements (top,sides,bottom). See specifi c appliance manual for details.
2. Set the appliance in its desired position. Drop a plumb bob down from
the ceiling/fl oor joist to the position of the appliance fl ue exit and mark
the location where the vent will penetrate the ceiling. Drill a small hole
at this point. Next drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole previously
drilled at the ceiling level and mark the spot where the vent will penetrate
the roof.
3. Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small hole placed in the roof in the
previous steps. The hole should be a minimum of 10-¼ inches. The hole
may be round and or square.
4. Slip the fl ashing under the shingles and line up fl ashing so it is centered
to the hole (shingles should overlap half of the fl ashing) as per Diagram
1.
5. A ceiling fi restop/fi restop spacer must be installed when passing through
each fl oor or ceiling level. To install the ceiling fi restop/fi restop spacer in
a fl at ceiling or fl oor joist cut a 10- ¼ inch square hole. Frame the hole
as show in Diagram 1 and install the ceiling fi restop. Slide the top attic
insulation spacer onto the top of the attic insulation shield/fi restop - See
Diagram 1a. Secure with 4 screws/nails. If more than one is required,
these can be purchased separately.
Note: The ceiling fi restop/fi restop spacer may be cut down to size if this
shield is too high for the application.

6. Determine the overall height of the chimney from the top of the appliance
to the underside of the fl ashing. If required cut the fl exible inner and outer
pipe to the desired length up to a maximum of 20 feet.
7. Put a bead of Mill-Pac around the 4 inch collar on the appliance and slide
the inner fl ex pipe over the inner collar of the appliance and secure with
a minimum of 3 screws.
8. Install 4 inch spacers around 4 inch fl ex.
9. Repeat Step 7 to install the outer pipe to the outer collar of the appliance
Note: If an off set is necessary in the attic or fl oor joists it is important to
support the vent pipe every 3 feet to avoid excessive stress and
sagging of the vent pipe. Wall straps are provided (3 in total) for this
purpose. All round/plumbers strapping may also be used if further
supports are required.
10. Attach the rigid pipe section to the adaptor by using Mill-Pac on the inner/
outer pipe. Use 3 screws to secure outer pipe.

Diagram 1: The upper half of the fl ashing is
installed under the roofi ng material and not
nailed down until the chimney is installed.
This allows for small adjustments.

11. Secure inner fl ex pipe to pipe adaptor by using Mill-Pac over the adaptor.
Slide the inner pipe over adaptor and secure with 3 screws.
12. Repeat Step 11 to secure outer fl ex.
13. Slide the fi nished length up towards the fl ashing ensuring the length of
pipe is a minimum of 2 feet measured from the top of the roof. Level the
chimney and secure using the roof support provided with kit to bottom
side of the roof as shown using a minimum of 2 screws per side- see
Diagram 3b. See Diagram 4 for roof pitch and height requirements. See
Diagram 3a for securing method if 2 ft. is insuffi cient and additional lengths
are required, this may be purchased separately. See Simpson Duravent
components list in the instruction manual for part numbers.

14. Put a bead of caulking on the exterior between the outer pipe and fl ashing
to prevent water from penetrating the chimney system.
15. Slide storm collar over pipe length until it reaches the fl ashing.
16. Install termination cap by twist locking it.
17. Secure the fl ashing to the roof using screws
Note: Any closets or storage spaces which the vent passes through must
be enclosed.
