2. If there is to be a vertical run of vent from the blower, the 3" PVC, ABS or galvanized pipe must be attached to the blower using 3 sheet metal screws. If using galvanized piping attach- ment is the same. Additionally, you must seal all joints using a suitable silicone sealer such as GE RTV-103 or equivalent.

The Y' PVC Schedule 40 vent pipe can be run from the water heater through the wall or from the wall to the water heater,

whichever is most convenient. The vent pipe must extend a minimum of 1½" through the exterior wall. Extending the vent

cap as far as possible from the surface of the exterior wall will help minimize discoloration of the wall in this area which may be caused by the flue gases. Note that the inside collar must be slipped over the vent piping before locating the pipe through the

wall. Before securin_ the inside use a silicone sealer between pipe

and outside collars to the wall, and opening to insure a water

and air tight seal.

Sears has long been a household name in American retail history, with its roots dating back to the late 19th century. The brand has transformed over the years, adapting to changing consumer needs and market trends, and its products have evolved with advancements in technologies and consumer preferences.

At the core of Sears' appeal has traditionally been its diverse range of offerings, from appliances and tools to clothing and home goods. In particular, Sears has been known for its line of Kenmore appliances, which are celebrated for their reliability and efficiency. The Kenmore brand has continually introduced innovative technologies that enhance user experience, such as energy-efficient washing machines and smart refrigerators that can be monitored from smartphones.

Sears has also been at the forefront of implementing retail technologies. The use of barcode scanning and point of sale systems streamlined the shopping experience, allowing for quicker checkouts and more accurate inventory management. Additionally, Sears embraced e-commerce early in the internet revolution, providing customers with online shopping options that catered to the growing demand for convenience.

Another distinguishing feature of Sears is its commitment to private label brands, such as Craftsman and DieHard, known for their quality and performance. Craftsman tools have been a staple for DIY enthusiasts and professionals alike, offering a wide range of products from hand tools to power equipment. Similarly, DieHard batteries are synonymous with reliability, making them a top choice for consumers when it comes to automotive needs.

In recent years, Sears has faced significant challenges due to shifts in retail shopping behavior, with many consumers moving to online platforms and discount retailers. Despite this, the company is working to modernize its approach, focusing on the integration of an omnichannel strategy that marries in-store and online shopping experiences.

With the ongoing evolution of retail, Sears continues to adapt, leveraging its history and brand recognition while exploring new technologies and methods to capture the attention of a modern consumer base.
