JOINT ASSEMBLY

All components have a male and female end: the male end has a Centering
Flue Extension and a black Viton® O-ring on it (bottom side).
CAUTION: Each section must have on its male end. If not, it may
impair the sealing effectiveness. For any VERTICAL installation (except for
Variable Length (LV), no need for caulking when using the O-ring. For any
HORIZONTAL installation, add a bead of Viton® caulking over the Viton
O-ring to properly caulk.
NOTE: Diameter of the CAX1-(BC) shown in pictures for the installation
assembly are smaller then reality.

Only on Horizontal installation, add a bead of black Viton® caulking over the
Viton® O-ring.
NOTE: Sealant Caulking is supplied by Security and Individual tubes are
marked Fluorodyn Caulk VITON®. Codes are VITON-S for a tube of
2.5 oz. or VITON-L for a tube of 11 oz. It must be ordered separately.
