Dismantle all pipe sections including vent
terminal.
3. Attach the 4" dia. flex liner to the vent terminal
ensuring that the flex overlaps the collar of the
vent terminal by a minimum of 1-3/8"(35mm).
Use Mill-Pac to seal and secure with 3 of the
#8 x 1/2" screws (stainless steel).
4. Attach the adjustable pipe section to the vent
terminal using Mill-Pac attach with 3 of the #8
x 1/2" screws (stainless steel).
NOTE: For best results and optimum perfor-
mance with each approved venting sys-
tem, it is highly recommended to apply
"Mill-Pac" sealant (supplied) to every
inner pipe connection. Failure to do so
may result in drafting or performance
issues not covered under warranty.
Note:
The pipe seam should be facing down.

Note:
To make the instal-
lation more aes-
thetically pleasing,
we recommend
f r a m i n g o u t a
square that the cap
can be mounted
on.
Note:
If installing termination on a
siding covered wall, a vinyl siding
standoff or furring strips must be
used to ensure that the termination is
not recessed into the siding. For vinyl
siding standoff installation refer to the
Dura-Vent Termination instructions
5. Slide the partially connected pipe and vent
terminal assembly through the wall thim-
bles (from the exterior into the interior) and
secure the cap to the exterior wall with 4 of
the supplied screws (#8 x 1-1/2" drill point,
stainless steel). Note: pilot holes will need
to be drilled through the wall thimble on all
4 corners.
Note: The four screws provided for the
vent cap should be replaced with
appropriate fasteners for stucco,
brick, concrete, or other types of
sidings.
6. A bead of non-hardening mastic should be
run around both the termination and vinyl
siding standoff to prevent water from entering
and to make a tight seal between the cap
and the standoff.
7. Stretch the 4" diameter flex liner out fully and
get a trial fit of the liner onto the 4" diameter
starter collar.
8. Cut the 4" diameter flex liner to the desired
size.
Hint: leave an extra 12" to 16" of length, this will
make the final assembly easier to work with.
9. Secure the 4" dia. flex liner to the 4" adapter
with Mill-Pac and 3 of the #8 x 1/2" screws
(stainless steel).
10. Slide the decorative Thimble Cover over the
pipe sections and secure with 4 screws (#8 x
1-1/2" drill point, black) to the wall.
11. Slide the 90
elbow and the 4 ft. pipe section (crimp end up)
over the 4" dia. flex liner.
12. Install the spring spacers onto the pipe sections.
13. Secure the 4" dia. flex liner with adapter onto
the stove collar. Put a bead of Mill-Pac around
the appliance adapter and secure with 3 screws
(#8 x 1/2, stainless steel).
