Step 1.

Balanced flue pipe is designed with a locking connection. To connect the flue system to the gas stove flue outlet:

•Lock the flue components into place by sliding the pipe section onto the collar.

•Align the seam of the pipe and seam of collar to allow engagement. Rotate the flue component to lock into place. Use this procedure for all flue components. See Figure 7.12.

•Continue adding flue components, locking each succeeding component into place.

•Ensure that each succeeding flue component is securely fitted and locked into the preceding component.

Step 2.

For installations using a round support box/wall thimble (check pipe manufacturer's instructions), mark the wall for

a9 in. x 9 in. (229 mm x 229 mm) square hole. The center of the square hole should line up with the center line of the horizontal pipe. Cut and frame the hole in the exterior wall where the flue will be terminated. If the wall being penetrated is constructed of noncombustible material, i.e. masonry block or concrete, a 7 in. (178 mm) diameter hole is acceptable.

Step 3.

Position the horizontal termination cap in the center of the 9 in. x 9 in. (229 mm x 229 mm) square hole and run a bead of non-hardening mastic around its outside edges, to make a seal between it and the wall. Attach termination cap to the exterior wall with the four wood screws pro- vided. The arrow on the flue cap should be pointing up.
