GENERAL INFORMATION ON ASSEMBLING
THE VENT PIPES
CRIMPED END PIPES
Before joining elbows and pipes apply a bead of high temperature sealant to crimped end of elbow or pipe. (Fig. 10).
Join pipes and secure joints with three (3) sheetmetal screws. (See Fig. 10) Wipe off excess sealant.

CANADIAN INSTALLATION
The venting system must be installed in accordance with the current
U.S.A. INSTALLATIONS:
The venting system must conform with local codes and/or the current National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1.
Only venting components manufactured by The CFM Majestics Products Company may be used.
TWIST LOCK PIPES
When using twist lock pipe it is not necessary to use sealant at the twist lock joints.
The only areas of the venting that need to be sealed with high temperature silicone sealant are the collars on the fireplace and termination, and the sliding joint of any telescopic vent pipes used in the system.
To join the twist lock pipes together, simply align the beads of the male end with the grooves of the female end, then while bringing the pipes together, twist the pipe until the flange on the female end contacts the external flange on the male end.
It is recommended that you secure the joints with 3 sheet metal screws however this is not mandatory with twist lock pipe.
To make it easier to assemble the joints we suggest putting a lubricant (Vaseline or similar) on the male end of the twist lock pipe.
