NOTE: Termination cap should pass through the wall firestop from the exterior of the building. Adjust the termination cap to its final exterior position on the building.
WARNING: Termination cap must be positioned so that arrow is pointing up.
Attach the termination cap with the four wood screws provided. Before attachment of the termination, run a bead of silicone sealant rated above 250°F on its outside edge too, so as to make a seal to the exterior wall.
NOTE: Wood screws can and should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for use on stucco, brick, concrete or other types of siding.
CAUTION: If exterior walls are finished with vinyl siding, (or materials that could become discolored or warp) it is necessary to install the vinyl siding standoff
