5.Install concentric Y fitting and pipe assembly through the structure’s hole and field-supplied roof boot/flashing. Do not allow insulation or other materials to accumulate inside pipe assembly when installing through the hole.

6.Secure assembly to roof structure as shown in Figure 22 using field-supplied metal strapping or equivalent support material.

NOTICE

Ensure termination height is above the roof surface or anticipated snow level. Figure 22.

If assembly is too short to meet height requirements, the two pipes supplied in the kit may be replaced by using the same diameter pipe. DO NOT extend the overall dimension by more than 60 inches (152.4 cm). See Fig. 19.
