and 6" outer, are both single-wall

vent pipe.

Approved clearance thimble is required

when flue pipe extends through combus-

tible materials. Follow the requirements

of the thimble and/or vent pipe manu-

facturer.

Following the same procedure, install any additional sections of 4" pipe. The

overall length of the 4"-diameter inner pipe must be at least 12" (305mm) longer

than the outer concentric pipe.
Slide the outer, 6"-diameter vent terminal pipe over the 4" pipe. Attach and se-

cure the 6" outer pipe to the collar on the adapter box using three non-corrosive

screws (the same as the 4" pipe) and seal the joint.
Follow the same procedure for additional joints.

3. Install the Dual Vent Adapter Box Indoors with Attached Concentric

Vent Pipe Exiting through the Roof or Wall

Follow the requirements in either FIGURE 4A or 4B to select a location for the

vent terminal.

Maintain a clearance of 18 inches (457mm) from the wall to the 6" vent terminal

cap for stability under wind conditions.
Products of combustion can cause discoloration of some building finishes and

deterioration of masonry materials. Applying a clear silicone sealant that is nor-

mally used to protect concrete driveways can protect masonry materials. If dis-

coloration is an esthetic problem, relocate the vent or install a vertical vent.
