COLINEAR TRANSITION VENT KIT
The Colinear Transition Kit (Part number PVCT) is available and
can be used to secure the flue and inlet pipes from the Mantis.
When venting vertically, the exhaust pipe termination must be a
minimum of 3 inches above the air inlet.
The flue can be terminated with a PTrap or two 90° elbows. The
Vertical Termination Cap (Part number PVVTC) can also be used
to terminate the flue pipe when using the Colinear Transition Kit.

Installation of the Colinear Transition Plate
1. Attach the plate to chimney chase, flat roof, or outside wall
with four screws. Use outdoor sealant to seal the transition
plate to the surface.
2. Cut inlet air pipe and flue exhaust pipe to correct lengths.
For vertical terminations through the roof or chimney, the air
intake and exhaust pipe termination must be a minimum of
twelve inches above the roof line. It is recommended that
the air intake and exhaust pipe termination be twelve inches
above the maximum expected snow level. See Figures 13
and 14. When venting vertically, the exhaust pipe termination
must be a minimum of three inches above the air intake. Also
refer to local codes. For horizontal termination through out
-
side walls, the minimum pipe length is nine inches for exhaust
pipe termination and six inches for the air intake.
3. Attach the flue and inlet air pipes to the transition plate. Use
the appropriate primer and cement to permanently bond the
joints and the pipes to the transition plate.
