VENT WEATHER SEAL KIT - VWSK5/10
NOTE: This kit has been designed and certified for use with a Cozy gas baseboard heater only. Use only factory
supplied kit and components. See Figure 1 for parts list of Vent Weather Seal Kit.
STEP 1.
Change the location for the vent by following Figure 1 in the installation and operating instructions
provided with the Cozy gas baseboard heater.
STEP 2. Drill a three (3) inch diameter hole through the wall of the chosen location.
STEP 3. Measure the wall thickness.
STEP 4.
Using a two (2) inch tube cutter, cut the PVC wall sleeve seven-eights (7/8") inch longer than the
measured wall thickness. See Figure 2.
STEP 5.
Clean the PVC sleeve and apply PVC cement (provided) on opposite sides of sleeve. Place straps
on cement leaving eight (8) inches past sleeve end. Wait ten (10) minutes for cement to dry before
proceeding to Step 6. See Figure 2.
STEP 6.
Apply petroleum jelly or an equivalent lubricant to the outside of the weather seal. The lubricant will
make it easier to push the weather seal through the wall. See Figure 2.
STEP 7.
From inside, hold the wall sleeve with the PVC straps lined up horizontally. Push the PVC pipe and
weather seal slowly through the wall until the weather seal is completely outside the wall. See Figure
3.
STEP 8.
Pull the PVC straps toward you to pull the weather seal firmly against the outside wall. See Figure
3.
STEP 9.
Being careful to keep the PVC straps lined up horizontally and pulled tight to maintain the outside
seal, bend the straps away from sleeve and secure to wall. Depending on type of wall, anchors (not
provided) may be required. See Figure 4.
STEP 10.
First, put blue pipe plug in PVC pipe to prevent insulation from getting inside! Insert nozzle from a
tube of foam insulation between the wall and the wall sleeve. Starting at the weather seal, slowly
inject the foam, working towards the inside wall. CAUTION: Read the manufacturers instructions
on the can of foam for special instructions and warnings.
STEP 11.
Wait fifteen (15) minutes for foam to dry, cut away any excess from around sleeve on inside wall. If
Cozy gas baseboard heater will be installed at a later date, leave the pipe plug in the wall sleeve to
seal the vent hole.
STEP 12. Install the Cozy gas baseboard heater per the installation instructions provided with heater.
STEP 13.
Slide the O-ring over the air intake tube to a position approximately two (2") inches from the end of
the tube. See Figure 5.
STEP 14. Remove pipe plug from wall sleeve.
STEP 15.
Apply petroleum jelly or equivalent lubricant around the outside of the O-ring. Insert the air intake
tube through the PVC wall sleeve until back of heater is against the wall. Secure heater to wall.
