!
Risk of Fire! The telescoping flue section of the
termination cap MUST be used when connecting vent.
• 1-1/2" (38 mm) minimum overlap of vent and
telescoping flue section is required.
Failure to maintain overlap may cause overheating and
fire.
Note: For horizontal vent runs through a combustible
wall and framing dimensions, refer to appliance
installation manual.
Install the Horizontal Termination Cap
Attach slip section of cap to last vent section. Maintain 1-1/2"
overlap between slip and vent sections.
Note: For installations using black pipe, slide the
decorative wall thimble over the last vent pipe before
connecting the termination to the pipe. When this
connection has been made, slide the wall thimble up to
the interior wall surface and attach with screws provided.
Secure termination cap to exterior wall using provided holes
and fasteners.
Vent termination must not be recessed in the wall. Siding
may be brought to the edge of the cap base.
!
Risk of Burns! Local codes may require installation of a
termination guard to prevent anything or anyone from
touching the hot cap.
Flash and seal as appropriate for siding material at outside
edges of cap.
When installing a horizontal termination cap, follow the cap
location guidelines as prescribed by current ANSI Z223.1
and CAN/CGA-B149 installation codes.
