2. | Cement the 6” x 4” no |
| straight (vent) end of the Y fitting. |
3. | If the intake air piping being installed is 4 inch pipe, cement |
| the 6” x 4” standard reducer bushing into the angle (intake |
| air) end of the Y fitting as shown in Figure 29. |
4. | If the intake air piping being installed is 6 inch pipe discard |
| the 6” x 4” standard reducer bushing. The 6 inch intake air |
| piping will connect directly to the angle end of the Y fitting. |
5. | Slide the intake air Y fitting assembly from inside the building |
| through the hole cut for the termination in the roof or sidewall. |
| Ensure no foreign materials such as insulation accumulate |
| inside the assembly. |
6. | Secure the intake air Y fitting assembly using field supplied |
| metal strapping or equivalent support materials. |
7. | On installations installed through the roof slide a field |

9. | Slide the steel vent cap onto the 4 inch vent pipe and cement |
| the vent terminal to the end of the vent pipe. |
10. | Slide the vent cap back up the vent pipe until it touches the |
| vent terminal. Secure the vent cap to the vent pipe using field |
| supplied stainless steel screws. Pilot holes must be drilled for the |
| screws to prevent damage/cracking of the vent pipe. Apply water |
| proof silicone sealant between the vent cap and the terminal. |
