16. Collapse the 6” flue extension assembly as shown below. Install
the O-ring end of the 3” (7.6 cm) extension approximately 1 1/4”
(3.2 cm) into the end of the vent cap. If necessary, apply a soap
solution to the O-ring to ease the assembly. Rotate the 3” extension
clockwise until the other end is locked to the studs on the elbow.

If the vent hole has not been cut, refer to section, “Cutting The Opening
Through The Outside Wall.” See page 11.
1. First determine how far the vertical 3” (7.6 cm) diameter telescoping
flue sections are to be set and locked together with two screws
supplied.
FIGURE 71.
Use the Chart #4, and figure 72 to determine the length of expansion of
the telescoping flue sections. Because of manufacturing tolerances, put
the telescoping extension on the water heater, adjust the height (dimen-
sion “X”) and mark the point. Once the length has been determined, lock
the two sections together by drilling two holes (180° apart) in the pipe
and secure with the supplied screws.
