Slide together to the desired length.

C. Secure the Vent Sections

Vertical runs of DVP pipe must be supported every 8 ft. (2.44 m) after the 25 ft. (7.62 m) maximum unsupported rise.

Horizontal sections of vent must be supported every 5 ft. (1.52 m) with a vent support or plumber’s strap.

Wall shield firestops may be used to provide horizontal support.

Vent support or plumber’s strap (spaced 120° apart) may be used for support. See Figures 10.7 and 10.8.

WARNING! Risk of Fire, Explosion or Asphyxi- ation! Improper support may allow vent to sag and separate. Use vent run supports and connect vent sections per installation instructions. DO NOT allow vent to sag below connection point to appliance.
