For installations using a round support box/wall thimble
(check pipe manufacturer's instructions), mark the wall
for a 10 in. x 10 in.
(254
mm x 254
mm) square hole.
The center of the square hole should line up with the
center line
of the horizontal pipe, as shown in
Figure
5.5
.
Cut and frame the hole in the exterior wall where
the vent will be terminated.
If the wall being penetrated
is constructed of noncombustible material, i.e. masonry
block or concrete, a 7 in. (178
mm) diameter hole is
acceptable.

Impaired Performance of Appliance
• Ensure vent components are locked together
correctly.
• Pipe may separate if not properly joined.
Fire Risk.
Explosion Risk.
Combustion Fume Risk.
Use vent run supports per installation instructions.
Connect vent sections per installation instructions.
• Maintain all clearances to combustibles.
• Do NOT allow vent to sag below connection
point to appliance.
• Maintain specified slope (if required).
Improper support may allow vent to sag or separate.
1.
Determine the desired location of the appliance. Check
to ensure that wall studs or roof rafters are not in the
way when the venting system is being planned. If this
is the case, you may want to adjust the location of the
appliance.
2.
Direct vent pipe is designed with a locking connection.
To connect the venting system to the appliance flue
outlet, a twist-lock adapter is built into the appliance
at the factory. Wall thickness may vary. Remember to
include wall thickness in minimum clearances when
figuring
venting lengths for your installation needs.
3.
Female ends of direct vent pipe/elbows are designed
to slide straight onto the male ends of adjacent pipes
by orienting the pipe indentations so they match and
slide into the
entry slots on the male ends, see
Figure
5.4
.
Align the seam of the pipe and seam of collar to
allow engagement. Rotate the vent component to lock
into place. Use this procedure for all vent components.
See Figure 10.5. Continue adding vent components,
locking each succeeding component into place. Ensure
that each succeeding vent component is securely fitted
and locked into the preceding component.
Note: Align seams to engage pipe,
then rotate counterclockwise to lock
