7.Remove outside mounting plate with tube attached from wall.

Mark and cut the extra length of the 6 5/8” (168 mm) diameter tube from the opposite end. Do not crimp or enlarge tube.

8.Attach the 4” (102 mm) diameter flue outlet tube onto the rigid venting system or directly to fireplace. Ensure the 4” (102 mm) diameter flue outlet tube is placed as far as possible onto the rigid venting system. Mark the 4” (102 mm) diameter flue outlet tube 2 1/2” (64 mm) beyond the vinyl siding kit or wall. See Figure 39. Remove the 4” (102 mm) diameter flue outlet tube from rigid venting system. When installing directly to fireplace, tape gasket needs to be used.

9.Mark or wrap tape completely around the tubes at the marked points to help in making a true cut. Do not crimp or enlarge tubes.

10.From outside: Push the 6 5/8” (168 mm) diameter inlet tube/ mounting plate onto end of rigid venting system to correct posi- tion. Fasten the outside mounting plate to the vinyl siding kit or wall with (4) 10 x 1 1/2” screws. (Ensure upward slope).

11.From inside: Attach the inlet tube to the collar on the back of the fireplace (or the rigid venting system) using (3) self tapping screws.

12.Seal the 4” (102 mm) diameter flue outlet tube. Follow instruc- tions and diagram. See Figure 41.

13.Fasten 4” (102 mm) diameter flue outlet tube in place. Do not “twist” the flue outlet tube into the fireplace collar (or rigid venting system). Hold the tube by the seam and push in using a perpendicular “rocking” motion. This ensures the seam on the tube stay intact.
