3.  Pull outer vent pipe back 1” to 2” from end of 
inner vent pipe and remove insulation; firstly, 
at vent pipe end to be connected to the vent 
termination; secondly, at vent pipe end to 
be connected to the appliance adapter. See 
Figure 19.
4.  Install supplied Cover Sleeve Assembly onto 
each end of outer vent pipe, and, move the 
assembly a few inches back from the end; 
firstly, at vent pipe side to be connected to the 
vent termination; secondly, at vent pipe side 
to be connected to the appliance (boiler outlet 
collar) adapter. See Figure 19.
5.  Slide supplied Cover Rings; firstly, over stop 
bead on vent termination inner pipe; secondly, 
over stop bead on appliance adapter. See 
Figure 19.
6.  Remove any oil and grease from the end of 
vent termination inner pipe, and, from the end 
of the appliance adapter.
7.  Apply sealant; firstly, between the stop bead 
and retainer bead at the end of the vent 
termination inner pipe; secondly, between the 
stop bead and retainer bead at the end of the 
appliance adapter. See Figure 20.
8.  Assemble supplied inner pipe clamp halves 
with 1/4-20 bolts and square nuts; position the 
inner pipe clamps ¼” from the end of inner 
vent pipe, on vent pipe opposite ends.
9.  Remove any oil and grease from inside of each 
end of the inner vent pipe.
10.  Apply a thick bead of sealant to inside of each 
end of the inner vent pipe, ½” from pipe end, 
working the sealant into the inner vent pipe 
corrugations. See Figure 20.
11.  Firstly, push one end of the inner vent pipe onto 
the vent termination inner pipe, all the way up 
to the stop bead. Secondly, push the opposite 
end of the inner vent pipe onto the appliance 
adapter, all the way up to the stop bead.
12.  Tighten the inner pipe clamp bolts at both vent 
pipe ends, until clamp halves are within 1/8” 
apart. See Figure 21.
13.  Starting with vent termination end, slide the 
cover sleeve assembly and the cover ring 
together to engage the ring in the groove of the 
sleeve, then, tighten the built-in cover sleeve 
clamp. Repeat above steps at the boiler end. 
See Figure 21.
14.  If the appliance collar is within less than 18" 
of combustible material, wrap minimum 1-1/2" 
thick fiberglass insulation (installer provided).
15.  To maintain vent pipe 1" clearance to 
combustible material, wrap minimum 1-1/2" 
thick fiberglass insulation (installer provided) 
around the exposed portion of the vent 
termination inner pipe and secure with 
adhesive-backed aluminum foil tape (installer 
provided).

F.  CONNECTING FLEX OIL VENT PIPE TO 
APPLIANCE ADAPTER AND DIRECT VENT 
TERMINATION
1.  Flexible double wall oil vent pipe is available pre-
cut 10 ft and 20 ft long. If necessary, the vent pipe 
may be cut to required length with a hacksaw or 
cutoff saw.
CAUTION
 Use safety glasses and other appropriated 
safety gear when cutting the vent pipe.
2.  The double wall flexible vent pipe consists of the 
smaller inner corrugated stainless steel pipe and 
larger corrugated aluminum pipe, separated by 
fiberglass insulation layer.
CAUTION
 The inner and outer pipe ends may have sharp 
burrs. Use gloves, while handling, compressing 
or expanding the vent pipe.
