4. Attach the Vinyl Siding Standoff (if required)
to the Horizontal Vent Termination, but first
run a bead of non-hardening mastic around
its outside edges, so as to make a seal
between vent cap and the standoff. Install
the Vinyl Siding Standoff
vent cap and the exterior wall and attach
with the four wood screws provided. Seal
around the Vinyl Siding Standoff on all four
sides. Diagram 5. The arrow on the vent
cap should be pointing up. Insure that the
1-1/4" clearances to combustible materials
are maintained. See Diagram 5.
Diagram 5
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. The four wood screws
provided should be replaced with ap-
propriate fasteners for stucco, brick,
concrete, or other types of sidings.
5. Before connecting the horizontal run of vent
pipe to the vent termination, slide the black
decorative wall thimble cover over the vent
pipe, then slide the Wall Thimble over the
vent pipe.
6. 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 a 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. Bend any remaining portion of the
sheet metal strip back towards the vent cap,
so it will be concealed by the decorative wall
thimble cover. See Diagram 6.
7. Install Wall Thimble in the center of the 10"
square and attach with wood screws (in
Canada).

wall surface being careful not to scratch the
paint and attach with screws provided. Apply
decorative brass or chrome trim if desired.

VERTICAL
TERMINATION
1. Maintain the 1-1/4" clearances (airspaces)
to combustibles when pass-
ing through ceilings, walls,
roofs, enclosures, attic rafter,
or other nearby combustible
surfaces.
Do not pack airspaces with
insulation. Check "Venting
Arrangements" section 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
this 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.

3. To install the Round Support Box/Wall Thim-
ble in a flat ceiling, cut a 10-inch square hole
in the ceiling centered on the hole drilled in
Step 2. Frame the hole as shown in Diagram
10.

4. Assemble the desired lengths of black pipe
and elbows necessary to reach from the
appliance adaptor up through the Round
Support Box. Ensure that all pipes and el-
bow connections are in the fully twist-locked
position and sealed.
5. Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small
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 1-1/4". Slip the flashing
under the shingles (shingles should overlap
half the flashing) as per Diagram 11.
Diagram 11: 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.
6. Continue to assemble pipe lengths.
Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic to
avoid obstructions, it is important to support
the vent pipe every 3 feet, to avoid exces-
sive stress on the elbows, and possible
separation. Wall straps are available for
this purpose. See Diagram 9.
