3. ASSEMBLING THE VENT SECTIONS
a. Attaching the Venting to the Appliance
To attach the first VP section to the appliance
collars, slide the flared end of the Inner flue of
the VP section over the inner collar on the
appliance. At the same time, insert the outer flue
into the outer collar on the appliance. Push the
vent section into the collar until all the lances
have snapped into place. Tug slightly on the vent
to confirm it has completely locked in place.
b. Assembling Vent Sections
1)
Start the flared inner flue of section A over
the inner flue of section B.
2)
Insert the outer flue of section A into the
outer flue of section B. See Figure 20.
Note:
Squeezing the pipe slightly to fit
may be necessary.
Note:
Make sure that the seams are
NOT aligned in order to prevent
unintentional disconnection.
Once both inner and outer flues are started,
press section A into section B firmly until
all lances have snapped into place. Tug
slightly on section A to confirm it has
completely locked into place. See Figure 21.
c. Assembling Minimum Installation (MI) Sections
MI sections are non-unitized so that they can be
cut to a certain length. To use these sections,
they must be cut to length from the non-ex-
panded end. See Figure 22. They can then be
attached by first connecting the expanded end of
the MI inner flue with the inner flue from the
adjacent vent section and securing with three
screws. The expanded portion of the MI inner
flue must overlap completely with the untreated
end of the adjacent vent section. The outer flue
can then be inserted into the adjacent outer flue
expanded end and attached to the next vent
section with three screws. The other end of the
MI vent section can then be attached by fitting a
snap lock section to it and snapping it together
as normal.
