silicone seals on slip sections. Use care when remov-
ing termination cap from slip pipe. If slip section seals
are broken during removal of the termination cap, vent
could leak.

then rotate counterclockwise to lock
NOTICE:
When installing a vent system with an HRC
termination cap, all pipe system joints shall be sealed
using a high temperature silicone sealant (300
ºF minimum
continuous exposure rating).
•
Apply a bead of silicone sealant (300
ºF minimum
continuous exposure rating) inside the female outer pipe
joint prior to joining sections.
•
Only outer pipes are sealed, sealing the inner flue is not
required.
•
All unit collar, pipe, slip section, elbow and cap outer
flues shall be sealed.
B. Assemble Slip Sections
• Slide the inner flue of the slip section into the inner flue
of the pipe section and the outer flue of the slip section

• Continue adding pipe as necessary following instructions
in “Assembling Pipe Sections.”
NOTICE:
If slip section is too long, the inner and outer
flues of the slip section can be cut to the desired length.
• Maintain a 1-1/2 in. (38 mm) overlap between the slip
section and the pipe section.
• Secure the pipe and slip section with two screws no
longer than 1/2 in. (13 mm), using the pilot holes in the
