SPACERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE INNER FLEX AT PREDETERMINED INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN AN
EVEN AIR GAP TO THE OUTER FLEX PIPE. THIS GAP IS REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION. A
SPACER IS REQUIRED AT THE START, MIDDLE, AND END OF EACH ELBOW TO ENSURE THIS GAP
All 4" (102mm) flexible vent pipe and 7" (178mm) rigid vent pipe joints must be sealed using either high
temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) or the high temperature sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not
supplied). However, the high temperature sealant W573-0007 Mill-Pac (not supplied) must be used on the
joint connecting the 4" (102mm) flexible vent pipe and the exhaust flue collar.
NOTE : Fastening hardware provided with appropriate kit.
A.
Stretch the inner fl ex pipe to the required length taking
into account the additional length needed for the
fi nished wall surface. Apply a heavy bead of Mill Pac
sealant (W573-0007) (not supplied) to the inner sleeve
of the air terminal. Slip the vent pipe a minimum of 2"
(50.8mm) over the inner sleeve of the air terminal and
secure with 3 screws.
B.
Using the outer rigid pipe, slide over the outer combustion air
sleeve of the air terminal and secure with 3 screws. Seal using
Red RTV Silicone (W573-0002) (not supplied).
C.
Insert the vent pipes through the fi restop maintaining
the required clearance to combustibles. Holding the
air terminal (lettering in an upright, readable position),
secure to the exterior wall and make weather tight by
sealing with caulking (not supplied).
D.
From inside the house, using Red RTV Silicone
(W573-0002) (not supplied), seal between the vent
pipe and the fi restop. Then slide the black trim collar
over the vent pipe up to the fi restop.
E.
If more vent pipe needs to be used to reach the
appliance, couple them together as illustrated. The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet
(0.9m) for both vertical and horizontal runs. Use noncombustible strapping to maintain the minimum clearance
to combustibles.
The air terminal mounting plate may be recessed into the exterior wall or siding no greater than the depth of its
return fl ange.
