INSTALLATION
RIGID PIPE VENTING SYSTEMS
BASIC HORIZONTAL & VERTICAL TERMINATIONS
Rigid Pipe Vent Systems offer a complete line of component parts for installation of both horizontal and vertical installations. Many items are offered in decorative black, as well as galvanized finish.
INSTALLATION
The minimum components required for a basic horizontal termination are:
1Horizontal Termination Cap
190o Elbow
1Rigid Pipe Adaptor
1Wall Thimble (Canada only)
1Length of pipe to suit wall thickness
The minimum components required for a basic vertical termination are:
1Vertical Termination Cap
1Rigid Pipe Adaptor
1Lengths of pipe to adequately penetrate roof
1Ceiling Firestop
1Flashing
1Storm Collar
Wall thickness is measured from the back standoffs to the inside mounting surface of termination cap. For siding other than vinyl furring strips may be used, instead of the vinyl siding standoff, to create a level surface to mount the vent terminal. The Terminal must not be recessed into siding. Measure the wall thickness including furring strips.
If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must be used with vinyl siding), measure to outside surface of wall without siding and add 2 inches.
