l) If a termination elbow or tee is used, a locking band or gear clamp must be used at either side of the wall penetration
to prevent shifting of the vent system in and out of the wall.
m) To join SVE Series III to the VH-1 terminal, cut off the female end of the pipe that is to be joined to the terminal.
When making this cut, make sure that it will be possible to insert the cut end of the pipe at least one inch inside the
terminal. Remove any oil, grease, or moisture from the exterior of the SVE Series III pipe and the female end of the
terminal. On the male end of the pipe, apply a ¼” wide bead of high temperature silicone approximately ½ inch from
the male end of the pipe. Apply ¼” beads of silicone along both sides of the longitudinal seam (Fig. 19). Insert this
end of the pipe into the terminal connection with at least a 1” overlap. It may be necessary to crimp the end of the
vent pipe before it can be inserted into the terminal. Apply an additional bead of silicone over the outside of the joint.
Smooth out the excess silicone. Use one of the following Z-Flex locking bands to mechanically secure the vent pipe
to the terminal:
SVE Series III Nominal Size
Z-Flex #
3” 2SVSLBF03
4” 2SVSLBF04
n) Allow the silicone to cure for 24 hours before operating the boiler.
