The four wood screws provided should be
replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco,
brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.
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.
7. Before connecting the horizontal run of vent pipe
to the vent termination, slide the Wall Thimble
over the vent pipe.
8. Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards
the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into the
vent cap assembly. It is important that the vent
pipe extends into the vent cap sufficient distance
so as to result in a minimum pipe overlap of
1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection between
the vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the
two sheet metal strips extending from the vent
cap assembly into the outer wall of the vent
pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws provided
to connect the strips to the pipe section. See
Diagram 6.

9. Install wall thimble in
the center of the 10"
square and attach
with wood screws
(Diagram 7).

clearances (air spaces) to
combustibles when passing
through ceilings, walls,
roofs, enclosures, attic
rafter, or other nearby
combustible surfaces. Do
not pack air spaces with
insulation. Check the "Rigid
Pipe Venting Systems"
& "Rigid Pipe Venting
Arrangements" sections for
the maximum vertical rise of
the venting system and the
maximum horizontal offset
limitations.
2. Set the gas appliance in its desired location.
Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the
position of the appliance flue exit, and mark
the location where the vent will penetrate the
ceiling. Drill a small hole at his point. Next,
drop a plumb bob from the roof to the hole
previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark
the spot where the vent will penetrate the
roof. Determine
if ceiling joists,
roof rafters or
other framing
will obstruct the
venting system.
You may wish
to relocate the
appliance or to
offset, as shown
in Diagram 2
to avoid cutting
l o a d b e a r i n g
members.
NOTE: For best results and optimum performance
with each approved venting system, it is highly rec-
ommended 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.
3. A Firestop spacer must be installed in the floor
or ceiling of every level. To install the Firestop
spacer in a flat ceiling or wall, cut a 10 inch
square hole. Frame the hole as shown in
Diagram 3 and install the firestop.

drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole
should be of sufficient size to meet the minimum
requirements for clearance to combustibles
of 1-1/2". Slip the flashing under the shingles
(shingles should overlap half the flashing) as
per Diagram 4.
Diagram 4: The upper half of the flashing is
installed under the roofing material and not
nailed down until the chimney is installed. This
allows for small adjustments.
avoid obstructions, it is important to
support the vent pipe every 3 feet, to
avoid excessive stress on the elbows,
and possible separation. Wall straps are
available for this purpose (Diagram 2).
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofline
due to its higher corrosion resistance. Continue
to add pipe sections through the flashing until
the height of the vent cap meets the minimum
height requirements specified in Diagram 5 or
