VENT INSTALLATION:
Termination must exhaust above the air inlet elevation, and parallel or above the exhaust output of the
pellet appliance. It is recommended that at least 3’ of vertical pipe be installed to create some natural

Horizontal sections must have a ¼” rise every 12” of travel after 3’ long.
Pellet Vent connections must be sealed with HI-Temp RTV Silicone and/or screwed together with at
least 3 x 3/8” long stainless steel screws. Seal each vent section by injecting a liberal amount of HI-
TEMP RTV silicone sealant into the gap.
