and the termination kit with the four (4) #10 x 1''
screws and washers. Make sure that the rain guard
and the word “

” on the end of the vent-air intake

terminal are oriented properly. Caulk the junction of
the outer wall mounting plate and the exterior wall
with exterior type silicone sealant.(

see figure 4

).

4) Inside the building, slide the back plate over the 

5 inch (12.7 cm) pipe of the termination kit until it is
flush with the wall. Mark the hole locations for the
mounting screws. Drill 1/4'' diameter holes in the
wall for the four (4) wall anchors. Install the wall
anchors and secure the back plate with the four (4)
#10 x 1'' screws. (

see figure 5

).

5) Apply the high temperature sealant (silicone or other

material suitable for 315˚F [600˚C] continuous 
service) to the 3 inch (7.6 cm) pipe of the termina-

tion kit and the two ends (5 inch (12.7 cm) & 6 inch
(15.2 cm)) of the free reducer. Insert the 6 inch 
(15.2 cm) end of the reducer into the end of the 

flexible pipe that does not already have a reducer
installed, and secure them together with a six (6)
inch (15.2 cm) hose clamp. Pull the 3 inch (7.6 cm)
flexible pipe over the 3 inch (7.6 cm) pipe of the 
termination kit. Secure them together with a three
(3) inch (7.6 cm) hose clamp. Insert the 5 inch 
(12.7 cm) end of the free reducer into the 5 inch
(12.7 cm) pipe of the termination kit. Drill three (3)
holes, 120˚ apart, through the 5 inch (12.7 cm)
diameter termination kit pipe and reducer, and
secure them together with three (3) 1/2'' thread 
cutting screws (

see figure 6

). 

6) At the other end of the flexible pipe, pull the three (3)

inch (7.6 cm) and the six (6) inch (15.2 cm) pipe
(with reducer already installed) towards the water
heater.  Make sure to pull the six (6) inch (15.2 cm)
