HORIZONTAL INSTALLATION (CONT.)
Step 4.
Position the horizontal vent termination in the center of the 10" (254mm) square hole, run a
bead of non-hardening mastic around its outside edges, so as to make a seal between it and
the wall, attach termination cap to the exterior wall with the four wood screws provided. The
arrow on the vent cap should be pointing up (Figure 7) . Insure that proper clearances to
combustible materials are maintained.
NOTE:
(1)
The four wood screws provided should be replaced with appropriate fasteners for stucco,
brick, concrete, or other types of sidings.
(2)
If you are using Simpson DuraVent termination cap # 985 on a building with vinyl siding, a
vinyl siding standoff (Simpson Dura-Vent Part #950), should be installed between the vent
cap and the exterior wall (Figure 8). Attach the vinyl siding standoff to the horizontal vent
termination. The vinyl siding standoff prevents excessive heat from possibly melting the vinyl
siding material. Vent terminal shall not be recessed into a wall or siding.
Remove siding
from beneath area of standoff.
