Vertical installation (See Fig. 7).
1. Check the location of appliance and the path for the vent system. And calculate the required
number and combination of items (see the dimensions of items in Fig.1, page 41) of the vent
system. Check the pitch of roof where the vent system passes through.
2. Cut 5.3" (135mm) diameter openings(or suitable 'oval' for pitched roof) in each floor, ceiling,
and the roof where the vent system passes through.
3. Connect drain tee to the appliance flue outlet.
4. Install the vent system from the appliance to roof by using straight lengths, adjustable lengths,
and elbows.
Make sure that a continuously UPWARD slope of no less than 2º (1/4 in/ft) is maintained in the
horizontal portion.
Refer to Fig. 7 page 50.
5. Support the vent system every 5' (1.5m) with support straps.
6. Once the vent system reaches under the roof, set the parts of roof flashing. The parts required
and the connecting order of them depend on the pitch of the roof shown in Fig. 8.
7. Fasten the bottom part of roof flashing (cap) or (adapter) to roof with screws, nails or so on.
If the 4 holes at the 4 corners of the part is larger than screws or nails, insert the 4 washers
provided with the part.
8. If roof flashing (adapter) is used, connect roof flashing (base) to roof flashing (adapter) with the
bolts provided with the part.
9. Connect the pipe of roof flashing (cap) to vent system.
Adjust the angle of roof flashing (cap) so as to make the pipe of roof flashing (cap) vertical.
10. Seal between the parts of roof flashing and roof.
