The above illustration represents the installation procedure for dripless pipe installation.  This installation
method of installing the connector pipe with the male end down allows for any moisture to remain on the
inside of the connector pipe.

IMPORTANT: THE SINGLE WALL CONNECTOR PIPE MUST NEVER PASS

THROUGH A COMBUSTIBLE CEILING OR WALL.

At first glance you may become concerned that smoke will escape the pipe and enter the room.   This is
not how the system will work.  The vacum in the chimney system will always pull air into the chimney.  If
you experience a downdraft with your installation it indicates that additional chimney height or a specialty
draft  cap  be  added  to  your  chimney  system.    Contact  your  dealer  for  further  information  regarding
downdrafts.
