covered wall, a vinyl siding standoff or
furring strips must be used to ensure
that the termination is not recessed
into the siding. For vinyl siding stand-
off installation refer to the Dura-Vent
Termination instructions
.
3. Attach the 4" dia. flex liner to the vent terminal
ensuring that the flex overlaps the collar of the
vent terminal by a minimum of 1-3/8"(35mm).
Use Mill-Pac to seal and secure with 3 of the
#8 x 1/2" screws (stainless steel).
4. Attach the adjustable pipe section to the vent
terminal using Mill-Pac attach with 3 of the #8
x 1/2" screws (stainless steel).
NOTE: For best results and optimum
performance with each approved
venting system, it is highly
recommended to apply “Mill-Pac”
sealant (supplied) to every inner pipe
connection. Failure to do so may result
in drafting or performance issues not
covered under warranty.
5. Slide the partially connect -
ed pipe and vent terminal
assembly through the
wall thimbles (from the
exterior into the interior)
and secure the cap to the
exterior wall with 4 of the
supplied screws (#8 x
1-1/2" drill point, stainless
steel). Note: pilot holes
will need to be drilled through the wall thimble
on all 4 corners.
Note: The four screws provided for the
vent cap should be replaced with
appropriate fasteners for stucco,
brick, concrete, or other types of
sidings.
6. A bead of non-hardening mastic should be run
around both the termination and vinyl siding
standoff to prevent water from entering and
to make a tight seal between the cap and the
standoff.
7. Stretch the 4" diameter flex liner out fully and
get a trial fit of the liner onto the 4" diameter
starter collar.
8. Cut the 4" diameter flex liner to the desired
size.
Hint: leave an extra 12" to 16" of length, this will
make the final assembly easier to work with.

17. Slide the adjustable pipe section onto the 90

elbow. Slide the trim collar over the adjustable
pipe sections to cover the joint of the telescopic
section. The flex may have to be compressed
back in order for the adjustable pipe to properly
mate to the elbow. Seal with Mill-Pac secure
with 3 of the #8 x 1/2" screws (black). Pipe
seams facing down.
18. Install the trim collar over the starter collar and
secure with a #8 x 1/2" screw (black).
If the pipe needs to be touched up, use only Stove -

Note:
To make the installation more aes-
thetically pleasing, we recommend
framing out a square that the cap can
