CRIMPED END PIPES
Before joining elbows and pipes apply a bead of high tempera-
ture sealant to the crimped end of the elbow or pipe.
Join the pipes using a 2" (50 mm) overlap and secure joints
with three (3) sheet metal screws, (see Fig. 11). Wipe off
excess sealant.

. CANADIAN INSTALLATIONS:
• The venting system must be installed in accordance with the
current CAN/CGA-Bl49 (.I or .2) installation code.
U.S.A. INSTALLATIONS:
The venting system must conform with local codes and/or the
current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223. I.
Only venting components manufactured by The CFM Majes-
tic Products Company may be used.
When using CFM Majestic twist lock pipe it is not necessary
to use sealant at the twist lock joints.
The only areas of the venting that need to be sealed with high
temperature silicone sealant are the collars on the fireplace and
termination, and the sliding joint of any telescopic vent pipes
used in the system.
To join the twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads of
the male end with the grooves of the female end, then while
bringing the pipes together, twist the pipe until the flange on
the female end contacts the external flange on the male end.
It is recommended that you secure the joints with 3 sheet metal
screws however this is not mandatory with twist lock pipe.
To make it easier to assemble the joints we suggest putting
a lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male end of the twist
lock pipe.
