NOTE: Termination cap should pass through the wall firestop

from the exterior of the building. Adjust the termination

cap to its final exterior position on the building.

Warning: Termination cap must be positioned so that arrow

is pointing up.

Attach the termination cap with the four wood screws provided.

Before attachment of the termination, run a bead of silicone sealant

rated above 250°F on its outside edge too, so as to make a seal to

the exterior wall.
NOTE: Wood screws can and should be replaced with appropriate

fasteners for use on stucco, brick, concrete or other types

of siding.

CAUTION: If exterior walls are finished with vinyl siding, (or

materials that could become discolored or warp) it is necessary to

install a vinyl siding standoff.
The vinyl siding standoff will be installed between the vent

termination and the exterior wall. See Figure 54. This horizontal vent

termination bolts onto the flat portion of the vinyl siding standoff, so

an air space will exist between the wall and the termination cap.
