temperature sealant W573-0002 (not supplied) or the high temperature
sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not supplied). However, the high temperature

ELBOW
SPACERS
DO NOT ALLOW THE INNER FLEX PIPE TO BUNCH UP ON HORIZONTAL OR VERTICAL RUNS AND ELBOWS.
KEEP IT PULLED TIGHT.
SPACERS ARE ATTACHED TO THE INNER FLEX PIPE AT PREDETERMINED INTERVALS TO MAINTAIN AN EVEN
AIR GAP TO THE OUTER FLEX PIPE. THIS GAP IS REQUIRED FOR SAFE OPERATION. A SPACER IS REQUIRED
AT THE START, MIDDLE AND END OF EACH ELBOW TO ENSURE THIS GAP IS MAINTAINED. THESE SPACERS
MUST NOT BE REMOVED.
!
WARNING
A.
Stretch the inner
fl
ex pipe to the required length taking into
account the additional length needed for the
fi
nished wall
surface. Apply a heavy bead of the high temperature
sealant W573-0007 Mill Pac (not supplied) to the inner
sleeve of the air terminal. Slip the vent pipe a minimum
of 2” (50.8mm) over the inner sleeve of the air terminal
and secure with 3 #8 screws.
B.
Using the outer
fl
ex pipe, slide over the outer combustion
air sleeve of the air terminal and secure with 3 #8 screws.
Seal using high temperature sealant W573-0002 (not
supplied).
C.
Insert the vent pipes through the
fi
restop maintaining the required
clearance to combustibles. Holding the air terminal (lettering in
an upright, readable position), secure to the exterior wall and
make weather tight by sealing with caulking (not supplied).
D.
If more vent pipe needs to be used to reach the
fi
replace, couple
them together as illustrated. The vent system must be
supported approximately every 3 feet (0.9m) for both vertical
and horizontal runs. Use noncombustible strapping to
maintain the minimum clearance to combustibles.
The air terminal mounting plate may be recessed into the exterior wall or siding no greater than the depth
of its return fl ange.
