Below Grade Installation
If the Snorkel Termination must be installed below
grade, i.e. basement application, proper drainage
must be provided to prevent water from entering
the Snorkel Termination. Refer to Dia. 4. Do not
attempt to enclose the Snorkel within the wall,
or any other type of enclosure.
Diagram 4
4. If installing the vent termination to a wall with
vinyl siding, the Vinyl Siding Standoff must
be used. Attach the Vinyl Siding Standoff to
the Horizontal Vent Termination, but first run
a bead of non-hardening mastic around its
outside edges, so as to make a seal between
vent cap and the standoff. Install the Vinyl
Siding Standoff between the vent cap and
the exterior wall and attach with the four
wood screws provided. Seal around the Vinyl
Siding Standoff on all four sides. Diagram 5.
The arrow on the vent cap should be
pointing up. Insure that the 1-1/4" clearances
to combustible materials are maintained. See
diagram 5.
Diagram 5
Note: If installing termination on a siding covered
wall, a vinyl siding standoff or furring strips must
be used to ensure that the termination is not
recessed into the siding. The four wood screws
provided should be replaced with appropriate
fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other
types of sidings.
5. Before connecting the horizontal run of vent
pipe to the vent termination, slide the black
decorative wall thimble cover over the vent
pipe, then slide the Wall Thimble over the vent
pipe.
6. Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards
the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into
the vent cap assembly. It is important that the
vent pipe extends into the vent cap a sufficient
distance so as to result in a minimum pipe
overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection
between the vent pipe and the vent cap by
attaching the two sheet metal strips extending
from the vent cap assembly into the outer
wall of the vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal
screws provided to connect the strips to the
pipe. Bend any remaining portion of the sheet
metal strip back towards the vent cap, so it
will be concealed by the decorative wall thimble
cover. See diagram 6.

7. Install the Wall Thimble in the center of the
10" square and attach with wood screws.
8. Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the wall
surface being careful not to scratch the paint and
attach with screws provided. Apply decorative
brass or chrome trim if desired. See diagram
7.

Terminations
1. Maintain the 1-1/4" clearances
(air spaces) to combustibles
when passing through ceilings,
walls, roofs, enclosures,
attic rafter, or other nearby
combustible surfaces. Do
not pack air spaces with
insulation. Check the "Rigid
Pipe Venting Arrangments"
section for the maximum
vertical rise of the venting
system and the maximum
horizontal offset limitations.
2. Set the gas appliance in
its desired location. Drop a
plumb bob down from the
ceiling to the position of the
appliance flue exit, and mark
the location where the vent
will penetrate the ceiling. Drill
a small hole at his point.
Next, drop a plumb bob from the roof to the
hole previously drilled in the ceiling, and mark
the spot where the vent will penetrate the roof.
Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters or other
framing will obstruct the venting system. You
may wish to relocate the appliance or to offset,
as shown in diagram 9 to avoid cutting load
bearing members.

3. To install the Round Support Box/Wall Thimble
in a flat ceiling, cut a 10 inch square hole in
the ceiling centred on the hole drilled in Step
2. Frame the hole as shown in diagram 10.
