Flex VeNtING INStAllAtIoN

. Install firestop spacers, Figure 38, when penetrat-

ing ceiling, attic spaces, or walls.

3. Do not allow the flexible vent to bend in radius

tighter than 5" (17 mm). Figure 37

4. Horizontal runs of flexible vent shall be supported

at maximum foot intervals; vertical runs, five feet
intervals. Metal strapping, properly secured, is an
acceptable means to support the flexible vent.

5. Flexible vent spacers are to be installed at inter-

vals prescribed by the flexible vent manufacturer;
and in such a way as to maintain concentric inner
and outer vent spacing.

D. Attaching flexible venting to vertical termination

assemblies.

1. When using Simpson pipe, an MHSC flex-to-pipe

adapter and/or rigid pipe section(s) is required to
connect the flexible vent assembly to the verti-
cal termination by using three self-penetrating
screws.

. Review Figure 39 and corresponding instruc-

tions for proper overlap, clamp and screw place-
ment.

3. Three each self-penetrating screws are drilled

opposite one another and below the gear
clamp.

4. Use only listed and approved terminations and

accessories, installed per the installation instruc-
tions and Figure 38.

E. Installing flexible venting to horizontal termination

assemblies.

1. Connect the 5" flexible vent to the horizontal

termination as in Figure 40.

. Connect the 8" flexible vent to the termination

ring as in Figure 40.

3. Review Figure 40 for proper overlap and clamp

placement.

4. Three each self-penetrating screws are drilled

opposite one another and below the gear lamp.

5. Use only listed an approved terminations and

accessories, installed per the termination instruc-
