ADAPTERS
— Use adapters if using other than 3-inch
PVC or CPVC. This is required for different materials
(polypropylene or AL24-4C stainless steel) or if using
2-inch pipe.
The inside and outside cover plates are stamped to iden-
tify the exhaust (vent) and intake (air) openings. Make
sure to orient the plates correctly.
1. Locate termination opening and avoid obstructions:
a. Use the template supplied with the termination kit.
b. Locate the template on the outside building surface where the
penetration is to be made.
c. Make sure there will be no obstructions that might prevent
proper placement of the termination.
d. Use the template to mark the locations for the four mounting
holes, flue pipe and air pipe. Level the template with a level.
For the Weil-McLain plate, the template must be level to
ensure the flue and air pipe will be side-to-side, as shown
in Figure 23. Failure to comply could result in severe
personal injury, death or substantial property damage.
e. Cut holes in the wall as shown in Figure 23, using the location
marks made with the template. For best results, use a small-
diameter, long drill bit to drill centering holes for the flue and
air pipe openings. Then drill the large openings from both the
inside and outside.
f. The flue pipe and air pipe may be run through a rectangular
cutout (as marked on the template) in lieu of two separate
holes if desired.
2. Drill holes for the screws or plastic anchors to secure the outside
plate. Install the outside plate and mount the termination on the
plate (temporarily).
a. Cut the flue pipe so the extension through the wall will cause
the vent pipe to fully extend into the termination socket.
b. Cut the air pipe so the extension through the wall will butt the
air pipe against the stops inside the termination.
c. Temporarily slide the flue and air pipes through the opening(s).
Slide the inside wall plate over the two pipes and into position
on the inside wall.
d. Position the inside plate so the flue pipe and air pipe slope
downward slightly toward the boiler (1/4” per foot).
e. Mark the four (4) mounting holes for the plate.
f. Remove the vent and air pipe, drill the four mounting holes,
and mount the inside plate.
3. Test fit the vent/air termination on the vent pipe. Make sure the
vent pipe fully penetrates the termination socket and the air pipe
butts against the interior stops.
4. Apply silicon RTV sealant to the interior of the vent termination
and slide onto vent pipe. Rotate slightly to spread the silicon to
ensure a tight seal around the vent pipe.
5. Secure the termination in place using the four #10 x ½” sheet metal
screws and lock washers (see Figure 24).
