Step 7
Guide the vent terminations 4” and 7” collard into their
respective vent pipes. Double check that the vent pipes
overlap the collars by 2” (51 mm). Secure the termina-
tion to the wall with screws provided and caulk around
the wall plate to weatherproof. As an alternative to screw-
ing the termination directly to the wall, you may also use
expanding plugs or an approved exterior construction ad-
hesive. You may also attach the termination with screws
through the inner body into the 4” vent pipe, however for
this method, you must extend the 4” pipe approximately
6” (152 mm) beyond the outer face of the wall.
Support horizontal pipes every 36” (914
mm) with metal pipe straps.
