4. Thread the air terminal connector / vent pipe assembly down through the roof. The air terminal must be located vertically
and plumb. Attach the air terminal connector to the roof support, ensuring that the top of the air terminal is 16" above the
highest point that it penetrates the roof. Figure 12. DO NOT CLAMP THE FLEX VENT PIPE.
5. Remove nails from the shingles, above and to the sides of the chimney. Place the fl ashing over the air terminal connector
leaving a min. 3/4" of the air terminal connector showing above the top of the fl ashing. Slide the fl ashing underneath the sides
and upper edge of the shingles. Ensure that the air terminal connector is properly
centred within the fl ashing, giving a 3/4" margin all around. Fasten to the roof. Do
not nail through the lower portion of the fl ashing. Make weather-tight by sealing
with caulking. Where possible, cover the sides and top edges of the fl ashing with
roofi ng material. Figure 14.
6. Aligning the seams of the terminal and air terminal connector, place the terminal
over the air terminal connector making sure the vent pipe goes into the hole in the
terminal. Secure with the three screws provided. Figure 14.
7. Apply a heavy bead of weatherproof caulking 2" above the fl ashing. Note:
Maintain a minimum 2" space between the air inlet base and the storm collar. Install
the storm collar around the air terminal and slide down to the caulking. Tighten to
ensure that a weather-tight seal between the air terminal and the collar is achieved.

as illustrated. The vent system must be supported approximately every 3 feet for
both vertical and horizontal runs. Use noncombustible strapping to maintain the
