RIGID PIPE VENTING SYSTEMS

BASIC HORIZONTAL & VERTICAL TERMINATIONS

INSTALLATION

Rigid Pipe Vent Systems offer a complete line of component parts for installation of both horizontal and vertical installations. Many items are offered in decorative black, as well as gal- vanized fi nish.

The minimum components required for a basic horizontal termination are:

1Horizontal Termination Cap

190o Elbow

1Rigid Pipe Adaptor

1Wall Thimble

1Length of pipe to suit wall thickness

The minimum components required for a basic vertical termination are:

1Vertical Termination Cap

1Rigid Pipe Adaptor

1Lengths of pipe to adequately penetrate roof

1Ceiling Firestop

1Flashing

1Storm Collar

Wall thickness is measured from the back standoffs to the inside mounting surface of termination cap. For siding other than vinyl furring strips may be used, instead of the vinyl siding standoff, to create a level surface to mount the vent terminal. The Terminal must not be recessed into siding. Measure the wall thickness including furring strips.

If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must be used with vinyl siding), measure to outside surface of wall without siding and add 2 inches.
