Installing Vent Pipe
Assembling Pipe Sections
Insert the inner ue of section A into the ared inner ue of
section B.
Start the outer ue of section A over the outer ue of section B
(see Figure 8.2). Note: The end of the pipe sections with the
lances/tabs on it will face towards the appliance.
Once both inner and outer ues are started, press section A
onto section B rmly until all lances have snapped into place.
Check to make sure they have snapped together (see Figure
8.3) and the seams are not aligned (see Figure 8.4). Tug
slightly on section A to con rm it has completely locked into
place. It is acceptable to use screws no longer than 1 inch to
hold outer pipe sections together. If predrilling holes, do NOT
penetrate inner pipe.
For 90° and 45° elbows that are changing the vent direction
from horizontal to vertical, one screw minimum should be put in
the outer ue at the horizontal elbow joint to prevent the elbow
from rotating. Use screws no longer than 1 inch. If predrilling
screw holes, do NOT penetrate inner pipe.
Attaching Vent to the Firebox Assembly
To attach the rst pipe section to the collars, slide the male
end of the inner vent of the pipe section over the inner collar
on the rebox assembly. At the same time, slide the outer ue
over the outer collar on the appliance. Push the pipe section
into the appliance collar until all the lances (see Figure 8.1)
have snapped in place. Tug slightly on the section to con rm
it has completely locked into place.
