Installation requires a minimum of 6 in. (152
mm)
horizontal run of vent with a 1/4 in. (6
mm) rise run towards
the termination. Each 1 ft. (305
mm) of horizontal venting
must include a 1/4 in. (6
mm) rise.
Never allow the vent
to run downward. This could cause high temperatures
and may present the possibility of a fire.
The location of
the horizontal vent termination on an exterior wall must
meet all local and national building codes, and must not
be easily blocked or obstructed, see
Figure 4.4
on page
10.
6.
For installations requiring a vertical rise on the exterior of
the building, the HHT RHVK snorkel kit (Part #844-8921)
is available with a 14 in. (356 mm) and a 36 in. (914 mm)
tall snorkel termination cap. Follow the same installation
procedures as used for standard horizontal terminations.
If the
snorkel termination must be installed below grade
(i.e. basement application), proper drainage must be
provided to prevent water from entering the snorkel
termination.
Do not backfill around snorkel termination.
7.
Position the horizontal termination cap in the center of
the 10 in. x 10 in. (254 mm x 254 mm) square hole and
run a bead of non-hardening mastic around its outside
edges, so as to make a seal between it and the wall,
attach termination cap to the exterior wall with the four
wood screws provided. The arrow on the vent cap should
be pointing up (
Figure 5.6
).

If you are installing termination cap HHW2, the pipe
will be off center on
flashing
). Ensure that proper
clearances to combustible materials are maintained.
If
you are using an approved termination cap
other than
HHW2 (part #841-0670) on a building with vinyl siding,
a vinyl siding standoff should be installed between
the
termination cap and the exterior wall (
Figure 5.8,
on the next page). Follow manufacturer’s instructions
for attaching the vinyl siding standoff to the horizontal
termination cap. The vinyl siding standoff prevents
excessive heat from possibly melting the vinyl siding
material. The vent terminal cap shall not be recessed
into a wall or siding. Remove siding from the area where
the standoff will be located.

8. The four wood screws provided should be replaced with
appropriate fasteners for stucco, brick, concrete, or other
types of sidings.
9. Termination cap HHW2 (Part #841-0670) is highly
recommended on a building with vinyl siding, as the vinyl
siding standoff is built in. The pilot hole will be 2 in. (51
mm) closer to the bottom of the square than the top.
Using a framing square, draw a 14 in. x 14 in. (356 mm x
356 mm) square around the pilot hole. See Figure 5.7.
