hole and attach to exterior wall with four
wood screws provided. Before attaching
vent cap to exterior wall, run a bead of
non-hardening mastic (pliable sealant)
around outside edges to make a seal

sidings.
Combustible Exterior Wall: For vinyl
siding, stucco or wood exteriors, a siding
standoff may be installed between vent
cap and exterior wall. Siding standoff
prevents excessive heat from damaging
siding materials. Siding material must be
cut to accommodate standoff. Bolt vent
cap to standoff. Apply non-hardening
mastic around outside edge of standoff.
