out the external cylinder.
Intake slide pipe
At this point, make sure the
supply and exhaust slide pipes
have been inserted into vent
terminal.
Make sure the connections are secure and take measures to
prevent exhaust gas from leaking. Use high temperature sealant
if necessary.
(1) Drill a hole (0.2" dia.) through the water heater exhaust flue
collar to meet with the hole in the exhaust slide pipe of
the vent terminal
(2) Seal connections between the water heater and the
vent terminal with high temperature sealant to ensure
exhaust gas won't leak.
(3) Screw the exhaust slide pipe of the vent terminal to the
flue collar of the water heater using the included tapping
screw.
(4) Cover all of the connections between the water heater
and the vent terminal with the included aluminum
tape.
* Note that the aluminum tape by itself is not sufficient to
make the connection gas tight and prevent the terminal
from becoming disconnected from the water heater.
(5) After completing the installation, perform a test run of
the water heater according to the installation manual.
