Wall thickness is measured from the back
standoffs to the inside mounting surface of
termination cap. For siding other than vinyl, furring
strips may be used, instead of a vinyl siding
standoff, to create a level surface to mount the
vent terminal. The Terminal must not be recessed
into siding. Measure the wall thickness including
furring strips.
If a Vinyl Siding Standoff is required (it must be
used with vinyl siding), measure to outside surface
of wall without siding and add 2 inches.
When using Rigid Vent other than
Simpson Dura-Vent, 3 screws must be
used to secure rigid pipe to adaptor.
