2. Install the metal Flue Collar in the Vent
Body of the heater (located under the
outside vent cover). Fasten the metal
Flue Collar to the Vent Body with two #10
sheet metal screws. Use high temperature
silicone RTV to seal the Flue Collar to the
Vent Body. Before connecting the metal
Flue Collar to the Vent Body, wet a clean
cloth or paper towel with isopropyl alcohol
(rubbing alcohol) and vigorously wipe the
socket of the Vent Body. Immediately wipe
the cleaned surfaces dry with a clean cloth
or paper towel. Repeat for the exterior
of the 100 mm (4") end of the metal Flue
Collar. Attach the metal Flue Collar to the
Vent Body using the RTV supplied with
the kit, following the vent manufacturer's
instructions (included with kit).
3. Attach the vent pipe to the metal Flue Collar
with sheet-metal screws.

WARNING
Risk of fire or asphyxiation if vent is not
assembled according to manufacturer's
instructions or if vent parts from different
manufacturers are mixed. Vent parts
from different manufacturers ARE NOT
interchangeable. Mixing parts from more
than one manufacturer may cause leaks or
damage to vent. When assembling a vent,
pick one manufacturer and be sure that all
vent parts come from that manufacturer
and are specified by the manufacturer
for your system. Follow manufacturer's
instructions, local code requirements and
AS/NZS 5601.1 standards carefully during
assembly and installation.
4. Install vent pipe so that it can expand and contract freely as the temperature changes. Support
the vent pipe according to applicable codes and the vent manufacturer's instructions. Pipe
support must allow the vent pipe free movement out and back, from side to side, or up and
down as necessary, without putting a strain on the heater or vent body. Slope horizontal
pipe down to condensate trap at least 2 cm per meter (1/4 in per foot). Install approved
condensate drains at low points where condensate might collect. Plumb condensate drains
to a drain through hard piping or high temperature tubing such as silicone rubber or EPDM
rubber – do not use vinyl or other low temperature tubing. Follow drain manufacturer's
installation instructions.
