INSTALLATION
The minimum components required for a basic vertical

1
Vertical Termination Cap
1
45
o
Elbow
1
Rigid Pipe Adaptor (510-994)
1
Ceiling Firestop
1
Flashing
1

1
Length of pipe to suit wall thickness
(see chart)
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofl ine due to its higher corrosion
resistance. Continue to add pipe sections through the fl ashing until the
height of the vent cap meets the minimum height requirements specifi ed in
Dia. 4 or local codes. Note that for steep roof pitches, the vertical height
must be increased. A poor draft, or down drafting can result from high
wind conditions near big trees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases,
increasing the vent height may solve the problem.
