INSTALLATION
Diagram 4
Hint: use the cut end of the 6-5/8" dia. outer
pipe at the vent terminal end.
b) Push the pipe sections completely together,
the minimum pipe overlap is 1-1/4". Secure all
outer pipe joints by using at least two screws.
Locate the screws at the bottom of the pipe so
that the screw heads are hidden on the fi nal
installation.
Note: For best results and optimum perform-
ance with each approved venting system,
it is highly recommended to apply "Mill-
Pac" sealant (supplied) to every inner
pipe connection. Failure to do so may
result in drafting or performance issues
not covered under warranty. Silicone (red
RTV) is optional.

c) Before connecting the vent pipe to the vent
termination, slide the black decorative wall
thimble cover over the vent pipe, then slide the
Wall Penetration Heat Shield (Part # 946-202)
over the vent pipe. Dia. 3.
d) Slide the appliance and vent assembly towards
the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into
the riser vent terminal assembly. It is impor-
tant that the vent pipe extends into the Riser
Vent Backing Plate a suffi cient 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 Riser
Vent Backing Plate into the outer wall of the
vent pipe. Use two aluminum screws provided
to connect the strips to the pipe section. Bend
any remaining portion of the sheet metal strip
back towards the vent cap and cut off any
excess, it will be concealed by the decorative
wall thimble cover. See diagram 5.
8) Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the wall

surface being careful not to scratch the paint.
See diagram 5.
9) Back outside: Apply sealant to the 4" inner fl ue
and slide the Riser Vent Front into the Backing
Plate and fasten with 8 screws.
IMPORTANT:
When connecting the pipe to the Riser Vent,
apply Mill-Pac to the inner pipe on the Riser
Vent Terminal, around the bead. Ensure that
the vent pipe is pushed past the bead for a
secure fi t.
10) Seal around the outer edge of the Riser Vent
Backing Plate.
VERTICAL
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 "Venting Ar-
rangement" 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 fl ue exit, and mark the
location where the vent will penetrate the ceil-
ing. 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
8 to avoid cutting load bearing members.
