    VI. Venting / Air Intake Piping NOTICE The gasketed vent system components pictured below in Figure A are being phased in and each vent component is interchangeable with the previously supplied gasket-less venting components. The newer vent components are generally quicker and easier to join, as they do not require the sealant application and their clamp bands are attached.
