•
Slide the vent sections together and turn 1/4 turn until the sections lock in
place.

used to secure vent sections together if desired.

High temperature sealant is recommended at the appliance starter section
connection (use high-temperature silicone or Mill-Pac®).
•
If disassembly is required, at time of re-assembly check to see if the vent
creates a tight fit. If it does not, apply high temperature sealant to the joints of
the affected sections.

Horizontal sections require a 1/4" rise every 12" of travel
•
Horizontal sections require non-combustible support every three feet (e.g.: plumbing tape)
