Vertical Terminations
Rigid Pipe
102mm x 175mm
The minimum components required for a basic vertical
termination are:
1 Vertical Termination Cap
1 Rigid Pipe Adaptor (510-994)
1 Ceiling Firestop
1 Flashing
1 Storm Collar
1 Length of pipe to suit wall thickness
(see chart)
When using Rigid Vent other than
Simpson Dura-Vent, 3 screws must be
used to secure rigid pipe to adaptor.
Galvanized pipe is desirable above the roofline due to its higher
corrosion resistance. Continue to add pipe sections through the
flashing until the height of the vent cap meets the minimum height
requirements specified in table below or local codes. Note that for
steep roof pitches, the vertical height must be increased. A poor
draft, or down drafting can result from high wind conditions near
big trees or adjoining roof lines, in these cases, increasing the
vent height may solve the problem.
