OVALIZING ROUND STAINLESS STEEL

Ensure that the ovalization is minimized to the extent
required to fit through the damper.

Do NOT pack insulation or other combustibles
between spacers.
• ALWAYS maintain specified clearances around venting and
spacers.
• Install spacers as specified.
Failure to keep insulation or other material away from vent
pipe may cause fire.
