Note: Make sure that the seams are not aligned to prevent unintentional disconnection.

Assembling DVP-12A Slip Sections

The outer flue of the slip section should slide over the outer flue of the pipe section and into (inner flue) the last pipe section (see Figure 8.7) .

Slide together to the desired length, making sure that a 1-1/2 inch outer flue overlap is maintained between the pipe section and slip section.

The pipe and slip section need to be secured by driving two screws through the overlapping portions of the outer flues using the pilot holes (see Figure 8.8).

This will secure the slip section to the desired length and prevent it from separating. The slip section can then be attached to the next pipe section.

If the slip section is too long, the inner and outer flues of the slip section can be cut to the desired length.

MI sections are non-unitized so that they can be cut to a certain length. Cut these sections to length from the non- expanded end (see Figure 8.6).

They can then be attached by first connecting the expanded end of the MI inner flue with the inner pipe from the adjacent pipe section and securing with three screws. The expanded portion of the MI inner flue must overlap completely with the unexpanded end of the adjacent pipe section.

The outer flue can then be inserted into the adjacent outer flue expanded end and attached to the next pipe section with three screws. The other end of the MI pipe section can then be attached by fitting another pipe section to it and snapping it together, as normal.
