Refer to Table 4.
3. Recommended horizontal installation consists
of vent being sloped down ¼ inch per foot away
from boiler. See Figure 4A. See Figure 4B for an
alternate horizontal installation.

through combustible walls (thimble use optional for
noncombustible walls). Insert thimble through wall
from outside. Secure outside flange to wall with
nails or screws, and seal ID, OD and vent holes with
sealant material. Install inside flange to inside wall,
secure with nails or screws, and seal with sealant
material.

is not used, size opening such that bell with locking
band attached cannot pass through.

7. Insert vent pipe through thimble/opening from
outside and join to vent system. Apply sealant
between vent pipe and opening/thimble to provide
