INSTALLATION

4)Attach the Vinyl Siding Standoff (if re- quired) to the Horizontal Vent Termination, but first run a bead of non-hardening mastic around its outside edges, so as to make a seal between vent cap and the standoff. Install the Vinyl Siding Standoff (Part # 950) between the vent cap and the exterior wall and attach with the four wood screws provided. Seal around the Vinyl Siding Standoff on all four sides. Diagram 5. The arrow on the vent cap should be point- ing up. Insure that the 1-1/4" clearances to combustible materials are maintained. See diagram 5.

7)Install Wall Thimble in the center of the 10" square and attach with wood screws (in Canada).

8)Slide the decorative wall thimble up to the wall surface being careful not to scratch the paint and attach with screws provided. Apply decorative brass or chrome trim if desired. See diagram 7.

penetrate the roof. Determine if ceiling joists, roof rafters or other framing will obstruct the venting system. You may wish to relocate the appliance or to

offset, as shown in dia- gram 9 to avoid cutting load

bearing members.

3)To install the Round Support Box/Wall Thim- ble in a flat ceiling, cut a 10 inch square hole in the ceiling centered on the hole drilled in Step 2. Frame the hole as shown in diagram 10.

Note: If installing termination on a siding covered wall, a vinyl siding stand- off or furring strips must be used to ensure that the termination is not recessed into the siding. The f o u r w o o d s c r e w s p r o v i d e d should be replaced with appropri- ate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other types of sid- ings.

5)Before connecting the horizontal run of vent pipe to the vent termination, slide the black decorative wall thimble cover over the vent pipe, then slide the Wall Thimble (Part # 942) over the vent pipe.

6)Slide the appliance and vent assembly to- wards the wall carefully inserting the vent pipe into the vent cap assembly. It is impor- tant that the vent pipe extends into the vent cap a sufficient distance so as to result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 inches. Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the vent cap by attaching the two sheet metal strips extending from the vent cap assembly into the outer wall of the vent pipe. Use the two sheet metal screws provided to connect the strips to the pipe section. Bend any remaining portion of the sheet metal strip back towards the vent cap, so it will be concealed by the decora- tive wall thimble cover. See diagram 6.

1)Maintain the 1-1/4" clearanc- es (air spaces) to combusti- bles when passing through ceilings, walls, roofs, enclo- sures, attic rafter, or other nearby combustible surfac- es.

Do not pack air spaces with insulation. Check page 13 for the maximum vertical rise of the venting system and the maximum horizontal offset limitations.

2)Set the gas appliance in its desired location. Drop a plumb bob down from the ceiling to the position of the appliance

4)Assemble the desired lengths of black pipe and elbows necessary to reach from the appliance adaptor up though the Round Support Box. Ensure that all pipes and elbow connections are in the fully twist- locked position and sealed.

5)Cut a hole in the roof centered on the small drilled hole placed in the roof in Step 2. The hole should be of sufficient size to meet the minimum requirements for clearance to com- bustibles of 1-1/4". Slip the flashing under the shingles (shingles should overlap half the flashing) as per diagram 11.

Diagram 11: The upper half of the flashing is installed under the roofing material and not nailed down until the chimney is installed.

This allows for small adjustments.

6)Continue to assemble pipe lengths.

Note: If an offset is necessary in the attic to avoid obstructions, it is impor-
