Place the wall thimble cover over the pipe assembly and
slide the appliance and vent assembly towards the wall,
carefully inserting the vent pipe into the vent termination
cap assembly. It is important that the vent pipe extend
into the vent termination cap a sufficient distance so as
to result in a minimum pipe overlap of 1-1/4 in. (32 mm).
Secure the connection between the vent pipe and the
vent termination cap by attaching the two sheet metal
strips extending from the vent termination cap assembly
into the outer wall of the vent pipe. Use the two sheet
metal screws provided to connect the strips to the pipe
section (
Figure 5.9
